Title: Swagbucks Question
Post by: Nancy5 on March 18, 2017, 11:55:27 am
I was thinking if joining Swagbucks.  Any members, what do you think about it?  If you get gift cards, are they mailed to you, or are they eCards that you scan from your phone?  Thanks for any help

I'm a member but can't get into this survey site, I know people who say it's great but not for me.  Are you a member in any other sites ?  There are a few I think are like Fusion no crap just to the point! But I'm doing the surveys I guess if your doing the other tasks I'm not a good person to give my two cents!!

I dont think it is worth it if its giftcards personally. Like the only ones I would want would be amazon and I just prefer cash so I am so happy that fusion cash gives money.

I'm a member of Swagbucks and have been for a long time.  You have your choice with rewards, paypal or gift cards.  The giftcards I've gotten have been e cards but there might be an option of having one mailed to you.   It's one of my favorite sites to earn.  Lots of different ways and they are always having team challenges, etc.    It can take a while for one to get use to and to learn about it but I think that's the case with any of these sites.  Like FC, if you stick to it you'll do fine.

I'm a member but stopped doing it a while ago because it just became too tedious to try and earn enough for anything.

I've been a member of Swagbucks for many years.  Yes, you can redeem your SB's for gift cards and one of the gift cards is PayPal.  If you save 2500 SB's you can redeem them for the $25 PayPal gift card and it's a direct deposit into your PayPal account.  There are a lot of things you can do on Swagbucks.  They also have contests like a Team Challenge where groups of people work together to earn their own SB's and work toward earning a bonus for winning the competition.  The bottom line is that the people who run the site know how to motivate members to earn.  FusionCash is my favorite earning site and Swagbucks is a close second.

To answer your question - Gift Card codes are usually emailed to your email account so it's all electronic.

I have belonged to SB for years.  I always cash out paypal although one time I did Dunkin Donuts which was an electronic .  gift card I had to print out.  I was worried about it working but my local dunkin donuts had no trouble with it. I like the site second to Fusion cash.  I have cut down to only three or four earnings sites and have maintained that one.

Swagbucks is great, I've gotten quite a bit from them over the years. They have daily clicks and things to earn every day, plus a ton of offers and cashback shopping. Cash out is digital, you can get Paypal or gift cards. I almost always get Amazon cards, because that's my favorite cash out reward.

I'm on swagbucks and I love it. I get the paypal cash from them and it comes really quick. I think it's worth signing up for.

Post by: squirrelgirl44 on March 21, 2017, 11:04:03 am
I used to belong to that site and didn't get much out of it. I think over time I ended up losing rewards so I just stopped using it altogether.

Swagbucks was probably the first site I ever joined, I have been paid 75 times by them, I have never had a problem with them, there are so many different things to do there to earn from them

I only cash out either paypal or amazon

I've been on Swagbucks for a little over a year.  It's like Fusion Cash, only bigger.
I mostly cash out with PayPal.  They call it a gift card, but it's just money sent to PayPal.

I have been a member for several years.  I use to like it.  But now it is impossible to get enough points to get a $5 gift card for amazon.  Do what you want but I would not waste my time.  I hardly ever even log in.

Post by: Yukichan77 on March 21, 2017, 10:26:27 pm
I used to be a member but I quit. The website always loaded very slowly for me because you couldn't earn with Adblock turned on. However, all the ads made the website go so slow. Also, the videos didn't even credit for me half the time. It's not a bad website and I think it can work out for some people but it wasn't for me.

I like it, but they're having a lot of trouble now with viruses on their videos. You can sign up, but be cautious.

Been using them for a few years.  Some offers are limited to me since I'm in Canada, but I still manage to churn out 50 bucks a month on a regular basis and only cash out for Paypal.

I have done Swagbucks for several years now.  There are dailies you can do to earn points.  I generally cash out for Amazon gift certificates.

2 thumbs up for swagbucks for me.  I utilize amazon 95% off the time on there.

I used to use Swagbucks every day but realized I was wasting an hour trying to complete their stupid daily checklist for an hour. Then when it comes to surveys.... Flip a coin... I plan on cashing out one more time and removing them from my list of sites. I've already chopped it down to like 8 sites I ever bother to go to now. There are 5 sites I actually stay active on at least a few days a week.

Post by: pectacon on March 22, 2017, 10:09:37 am
I used to make decent money there but lately the offers have been slow. They used to have more offers where you could just let ads play with no interaction, but those are gone nowadays. Hope they come back because I don't have enough time to invest to make more than a few cents a day there. I mainly cash out paypal or amazon. It takes several days in my experience.

Everyone has a different experience with the various sites to earn money.   I agree with everyone that FC is a great one.  But I also love Swagbucks.   I usually earn about $25.00 or even $50.00 a month.  It takes awhile to get it all figured out but it is possible to earn.
Title: Re: Swagbucks Question
Post by: countrygirl12 on March 23, 2017, 02:57:40 pm
It is possible to earn on several sites.  But you have to invest a lot of time.  For those of us with real jobs who just try to make a little extra cash it is not so easy.  I am tired when I come home.  And when I waste an hour trying to get paid 75 cents for a survey and then don't get credit it is very discouraging.  When I was laid off I could make more but I had to work hard and do it myself.  I don't have referrals.  Never figured out how people get those.  Some of them I think they post their link on line and some desperate person trying to make money clicks the link and tries hard for a while.  Then realizes you are spending all day in front of the computer and only make a dollar or so and they quit.

       How much can you make?
Title: Re: Swagbucks Question
Post by: danmo783 on March 24, 2017, 03:09:33 pm
I used to make over $100 a month on Swagbucks because they would let me run multiple sets of videos all day and all night long. Once they stopped that, I had no reason to stay. I used to collect 3.50 a day doing nothing. Now I can't even get a survey. It seems they are not about making money, but about selling stuff at a discount and giving you rebates in the form of points... Give it a shot, but it is a dying site when it comes to surveys.. They only have surveys because 95% of people would leave. Many left after they couldn't run the videos constantly. Swagbucks did not care because they made money off your views, so they let you run it around the clock... Not worth it now.

I've made 3,264 sb so far this month just from surveys. Do you qualify for surveys on here or was it just swagbucks that you don't qualify? I still run videos all day on my old phone

I'm able to run the site all day so I make a decent amount. If you have an actual job it might not be as easy for you. You could always join and see how it suits you.

I supposedly belong to SB but I don't remember joining. I tried joining last year but didn't get credit for joining because they said I was already a member. Strange. I may have tried them years ago but  couldn't make any $$ so gave them up.

I'm ready to give the other sites that I joined up for the same reason. I was able to cash out once on two different sites that I've been a member for at least 4 years and zero cash out on 2 others for the same amount of time. It's always survey DQs.

Post by: mrrangerrick on March 27, 2017, 08:38:01 pm
I like Swagbucks. I don't know why so many people don't, it's really easy to use and they always have challenges. The key to making money is through their offers, shopping through the sites links and using your mobile device/apps. There are people on there who clear $500-1000 a month. It all depends on how much you dedicate towards it.

Post by: aflyingmonkey on March 28, 2017, 04:27:34 pm
I would recommend Swagbucks, it's legit.  I got my father doing it for him to have something to do.
If you got the time, you can definitely earn... there are more opportunities to earn as well.  It is time consuming, but you could earn all day. 

As of now, I only do FC & Bing.  Both quick & easy & fun.

I love Swagbucks and have been using them for years! Back when I had a lot of spare time I could easily cash out for a $50 e card a month. Now it takes me about 2 months and I cash out for the $50 pay pal option.

I like Swagbucks especially the "Swag Button". You can get cash back while shopping online. I earned $35.00 in December just by booking a hotel stay thru Booking.com using Swagbucks. It's great to have it for that.

I am a member of Swagbucks. However, I haven't been very active lately...mostly because of log-in issues (that have thankfully been resolved). There is quite a bit to do in terms of making some extra money, and that is a definite plus!
