Swagbucks?


Recommended Posts

Anyone else try out Swagbucks?

I'm trying to earn extra PayPal $ for Christmas, fix my car etc and someone recommended SB. You can trade the SB in for PayPal, Amazon, Walmart gift cards etc. They also give you points for shopping at the same places online. I spend a lot at Amazon so that has helped me out a lot. You guys seem to do a lot of shopping on Amazon too, so it doesn't hurt.

 

I'm looking for any tips you guys may have to help earn money faster.

I've been taking the surveys for the most part. I'm sure there are loop holes and tricks to earning $$$ faster though.

Anyway, for those who haven't read up on it...

I get SB (and so do you) if someone new signs up using that link. Not sure what kind of bonuses we get though.

 

I was more curious for insider tips and tricks though.

My summer car is in the shop getting the motor rebuilt, and I'm.saving money over the winter for extras I can throw at the car. So far I've raised $20 in about a week.

I used to do SB for a year or two until they cut off my access to surveys. I moved flat a few times so my address changed, and probably cocked up my occupation/age a few times, and they that was it, cut and shut out from surveys leaving me only with Peanut Labs, which seem to pay out less over time I've noticed. I've emailed support, explained the situation and they couldn't give a shit and copied and pasted some reply back. So I'm done with it. Basically, keep your shit consistent, even if it means not being honest. You can't be a doctor one day and an astronaut the next.

 

But do get the SB browser extension as it alerts you to things like swagcodes, collecting your monthly bonus (which you have to collect manually) and can autotrack you when you visit a site you can earn SB from. Since I do a lot of shopping on eBay as well, I racked up a lot of SB from that. Do keep an eye on SB repayments from purchases  as the can really dick you about and hope you forget so they don't pay out.

 

I read people buy a cheap smartphone/android tablet just to run videos from the various apps all day as that's apparently where the real earner is and requires approx 0 work. Running the desktop site's videos isn't profitable (as it takes forever to load between ads) so always never bothered unless it was for swago (which you should do when they're available as they can be big earners).

I use a survey company called Web Perspectives (Canada only, https://www.webperspectives.ca/), but it appears to have a US version called Valued Opinions: https://www.valuedopinions.com/

 

If you keep up with the surveys you can earn a $10 Amazon certificate every week or so.

How does that work though? Most of the vids (I use my Android) require you to manually close out of the ad before the video starts.

 

I've been trying to take as many surveys as possible, and I've been staying consistent with my answers. 

Also downloaded a few games for extra SB, and have tried searching using the SB app, but don't seem to see any points coming in, other than the initial 20 for using it the first time.

Give this guide a look over https://www.reddit.com/r/SwagBucks/comments/229bf6/detailed_guide_about_swagbuckscom_for_the_newbies/ Should fill you in on those video apps and whether their passive or not. Also, a list of short videos so you can fav them and let it roll.

Haven't done Swagbucks in a long, long time. I use this App called Achievement. Once you earn 10,000 points you get PayPal'd $10. It takes a little while, but it's legit. I have it running when the app isn't open and it tracks my fitness through Apple Health and some other apps. You just earn points for doing healthy stuff. I do a lot of walking, so I rack them up quickly. Give it a try if you're active a lot. Here's a referral link if you want it: https://www.myachievement.com/refer/kLXy7Kb3KpY%3D%0A
