Swagbucks presents a mixed reputation among its users, with some customers appreciating the variety of ways to earn rewards, such as surveys and games. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding account deactivations, unresponsive customer service, and delayed payouts. Many users report frustration over not receiving compensation for completed surveys and feeling misled about earning potential. The overall sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction, with a notable number of users warning others against investing time in the platform due to perceived scams and inadequate support. This suggests a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service and reliability.

Worked great, Swag bucks is awesome, i would recommend people use swag bucks for extra cash or spending money
I love this website I wish the points were a little bigger especially the video points. I'm glad I get to redeem. Thanks to customer service.
So sometimes I have no issues with Swagbucks. I don't do shopping through them except to buy a gift card for a restaurant I am going to go to and then it is great. I do answer surveys but have been frustrated because sometimes it says a certain amount of time and it clearly takes more time. And then sometimes, it will say midway through I no longer qualify. What a waste of my time. I have also had times when I have finished and then have to try to contact them to get credit which used to be easier but now can take days. A new thing was started to get credit for receipts which was great for me and I went to do it today and it has already disappeared after 2-3 days. That is very disappointing considering I am not the type of person who sits online and plays games for points but found some way to get points and they have taken it away already. Also, I do have the app on my phone and they are constantly sending me stuff. I want to like it because I have been able to get Amazon credits and I appreciate that very much and that is good.
I look forward to getting gift cards each month to treat myself. The website is easy to use.I recommend the site to family and friends because it is the real thing.
Swagbucks is one of the most reliable survey panels out there. They are totally honest, never play games with you and are timely in sending you your rewards.
I have been using Swagbucks for so long that I can remember. When you first begin, it is hard to adjust to many surveys being rejected for whatever reasons but if you don't give up, you will get in the rhytmn and soon start to accumulate reward points. I use my reward points for merchant purchases and thing that I don't want to pay cash for. I use the site at least 3 times a week.
I mainly play Swagbucks for the entertainment, but little by little those wins start to add up and I was able to redeem my winnings for a $25 gift card at Target.
I just love swagbucks. I always our gift cards. I'm glad this site exists. Without it i would feel lost
I'm still a student and don't use any of Swagbucks' offers that require money. Through several normal surveys (since I don't qualify for any of the high-paying ones) and a few events (for me, the New Year's event was the most helpful), I was able to get a $5 iTunes gift card for free after probably two months (I also didn't log on for a few weeks in a row during that time period).
100 points equals a dollar, a normal survey that I qualify for typically gives 2-20 points... I can get another gift card quite soon!
However, next time I'll be more patient and save up for a $25 gift card. The first $25 gift card you buy each month gets a discount!
My reward arrived a day after redeeming it; I was surprised, that's for sure.
I deleted the proof of the card arriving since the card was sent by email and I like deleting "more sensitive" emails. Swagbucks actually asked me to review here a day after deleting it:/
And in case you were wondering, I spent the five dollars on a terribly fun game where it's developers are already rich due to "scam events", as the community likes to call them. I'm not gonna say anything more about this game since this isn't a review for it.
I'm a bad kid :(
Swagbucks is an awesome app that pays you real money to do surveys in your spare time! I had my doubts but I've already made real cash!
Swagbucks is everything they claim to be. There are always plenty of surveys, and money making opportunities. You can get money for almost everything you do on the internet anyway! I've been with them for about 8 years, and not once has there been a problem! Never. Plenty of money making tasks, rewards are always delivered, extra contests are always going on! You wont go wrong by signing up with Swagbucks.
I use Swagbucks a lot and I am able to get a lot of points. I can get a lot of good stuff with my SB.
My wife has been a member for over 10 years and I've used it for around 2. Together we've earned over $800.
I can't believe its really I really made money. But I really did. I made over 30 bucks with in 2 days I love it so much I can't believe I finally have a app wear I can really make money
I visit Swagbucks every day and I also love the surveys l. I have gotten 2 Amazon gift cards and am working on the third.
I visit Swag Bucks every day and love the surveys. Very easy to redeem your points! I will continue to be an "every day" visitor!
I have actually gotten real gift cards from this site! Super easy, and a great way to make a little extra money!
Love Swagbucks, a window pops up on my laptop and alerts me to... shopping offers and deals, cash back offers ect. I love taking the surveys and know that I am helping, in a small way. I also like being rewarded for my time and effort. Its a Win... Win... for me :)
Answer: They are definately legit been a member for many years and have earned over 70,000 swagbucks been paid many times with no problems also use there swagbutton with no problems
Answer: It is real cash, since you can have the payment through PayPal or Visa cards. They're not going to just deposit into a bank account.
Answer: Each point is a penny. So if you want a $5 gift card you need 500 Swagbucks. My only recommendation is don't get the Visa cards. All other cards work easily online or in store. Visa never seems to be accepted anywhere.
Answer: No, it won't steal your personal data. It's perfectly safe.
Answer: Got to $28 rather quick but the next $2 i need to cash out IS TAKING FOREVER!
Answer: You need to earn swagbucks to get a gift card. As few as 300-500 swagbucks will get you a gift card (worth $3 - $5). Better gift cards are available for more swagbucks.
Answer: Either way. Some gift cards are physical cards and are mailed and some are online.
Answer: "... the page disappeared..."? If this is about getting a bonus for using the Search function, the page doesn't disappear; it sits there until you move off it. A couple times, I have moved off a page before realizing there was a Search bonus. I hit the Back button on my browser & input the code, no problem. Of course, if you don't respond in a timely manner, the bonus expires. (I think it's around 3 minutes, but I'm not certain.) Also, if you input a non-matching code, you'll get a new code, but only 2x (3 chances in total). Are you maybe talking about a SwagCode? That's a bonus that appears on an otherwise normal page. And again the page doesn't disappear. If you take too long, you get an expired notice in the SwagCode box, but the page remains.
Answer: Many giftcards are sent electronically. Some are within a few hours, others can take a few days. How well they pay depends on which activity you're referring to and also how much time and effort you devote to earning. Some activities are USELESS, like watching videos - you watch 15 30-second videos and are only paid 2SB, the equivalent of 2¢. For 7.5mins, that's asinine! However, some of the activities, like the surveys, in-store shopping/receipt upload and games (such as Swago) can offer a great bonus here and there.
Answer: You never get paid from there discovery items, huge scam
