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.

Its very cool and easy yo make some money, I usally take surveys and get about 5 dollars each two days whitch is awsome. Its also very fun to playapps and win free money at the same time.
It used to be awesome and sub were rewarded fairly fast, now it seems like most things are pending for 10+ days. I've founded better apps that reward faster and redeeming the reward is almost instant... unlike swagbucks where it takes at least 48 hours to get my reward.
Swag bucks offers a way to make some spare cash in your free time. I invest little time and make a few bucks.
I love this app... It's a wonderful way to earn extra things you've been wanting for ya self or the ones ya love...!
A little extra work is all that's needed. There are many different ways to earn points for gift cards with Swagbucks and I use several of them.
My issue with swagbucks is getting disqualified constantly. Not quick quick disqualifications, I'm talking 5minutes or more into a survey.
I did a survey that took me around 30minutes only to get disqualified at the end. This has happened on more than one occasion. I got zero points for these. Also some surveys are set up to extract easy information without payment. I can't remember how many "errors" or "website glitches" I've ran into where the survey became unable to be finished due to these "technical glitches". I use these in quotes because I believe they've been set up this way on purpose.
The offers/trials are pretty straightforward and 90% actually payout. I've had a few that don't (all steps were followed).
Be careful giving your number out on offers. You give your number to one company and all the sudden you're getting hit up by 5 or so.
As far as getting paid, I've never had an issue. Once you have your SB, it's your SB. Swagbucks seems to be fine and works like it should, but the people they do business with can take you for a ride.
I love saving money, getting cash back and just using anything that will help me get free money. Swagbucks is one of those sites that has no catches and you make money using it. Get SB for shopping online getting the things you already planned on getting, watching video clips, taking surveys, answering polls and playing games. You are able to cash in your SB for giftcards to a bunch of different retailers and places as well as paypal. This is a good one, dont sleep on it.
Fun and rewarding entertainment. I use it during my downtime. Some of the surveys can be repetitive and very time consuming but overall a great experience.
App is legit and offers opportunities I hope for more payout options in the near future. Great app for earning incentives and motivating you to participate.
Such an easy thing to do - such a positive way to earn gift cards or money! Anyone can do this if you do computers every day! I have Swagbucks set up as my browser so it's being used no matter what i'm doing - busy one day- slow the next but earning 'bucks' every day. For three years - not paid for one Christmas gift, not paid for one garden item or plant, love keeping walmart ones in my 'stash' in case i run short of food money sometime. These ALL come in handy!
Its all about opportunity to have fun, shop, enjoy, earn, and be happy. I seldom get a free gift from anyone or from anything. Im just overwhelmed how swagbucks give me the chance to have free stuff. Thanks a lot, swagbucks!
It's a decent app to make a few extra dollars. Although it doesn't award you for a lot of the discover activities. It's still a good app, if you stay on your phone a lot, why not make a few extra bucks.
Swagbucks is a great way to earn gift cards and cash through PayPal. I also love there different promotional offers. The one downside is there are a lot of technical issues. But, they have always been wonderful about fixing any issues.
It is an amazing way to earn and it is really pay in 48 hours. I earn many gift card swagbucks and it is amazing and best survey site... this is no 1
Helping me and my family pay for our family vacation. Little bit at a time. Mexico again. Thank you swag bucks.
Love earning free gift cards for answering questions and participating in daily activities!
The seafood games, search bonuses, and swag bucks live are my favorite
I'm browsing at random content on my phone while waiting in line during school pick ups, while I have quiet time at home, when the kids take over the TV, etc, so why not open up SwagBucks and look at the same things I would usually browse through anyway, but earn a few extra bucks while doing it through SwagBucks? I Love It!
If you put the time into it and do the "daily to-do lists" then you really can get some good $$. I like to save up on Swagbucks and use the gift cards for Christmas time.
I am so happy that I have found an honest survey company. It is refreshing to do the works and have the payment come easy. Thank you so much. I
Will continue with your company
Love this ap! I've earned gift cards the first week! Fun and easy! Loyal to the brand and it's the real deal
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
