introduction
Do you want to know if Swagbucks really is a great and easy way to make some extra money online completely for free?
Then this video is for you. My name is Mikael, and I’ve tested hundreds of different ways to make money online. Many viewers have asked me for an updated Swagbucks review. Therefore, I decided to record this video, and I will show you exactly how it currently works and whether it’s worth it or not in my opinion. I’ll also show you payment proof so you can see that it actually does pay and talk about the overall earning potential so you can find out if it’s the right opportunity for you or not.
Who can join
Let’s start by going over who can join. Swagbucks has become available in basically all countries. It used to be limited to only around seven or eight countries; now it is available worldwide. However, there are still limited opportunities in certain countries. But especially in English-speaking countries and in European countries, it does have quite a lot of different ways to earn. You can earn on the website. It also has an app, or actually, it has several apps. You just need to be aware that the full app where you can get access to all the earning opportunities is only available in a few select countries. You can then find a Swagbucks survey app that is available in more countries. But overall, this can be a little bit confusing, so just be aware that depending on your country, if you, for example, download the Swagbucks app, you might not find as many earning opportunities as you will on the website. If you decide to join, you will also get a great joining bonus. Exactly how big it will be depends on where you live, and it will be between $5 and $10 when you live up to certain requirements. If you’re interested in that, you need to join through an invitation link. I will leave a link below to a full review, and there at the top, you can find the joining link. That will give you that joining bonus. But before deciding whether you should do that or not, let me now log in and show you exactly how it works, how you can earn, how much you can earn, and of course, also show you how to withdraw and show you payment proof.
Earning methods
Paid surveys
I’m now logged into Swagbucks, and Swagbucks is one of the get-paid-to sites that has the most different ways to earn. But again, as mentioned earlier, some earning opportunities are not available in all countries. Maybe you have some that I don’t have here, or maybe you have fewer. That is just how Swagbucks works. So I will just give you an overall tour, show you how it works, how you find the different opportunities, and then you can get a good idea of what the options are. Maybe there are a few differences in the country you live in, but you will get the idea. You will know how to navigate, how to use it, and one of the ways you can earn is by taking paid surveys. You will get an overview here, but you can also go to the answer section, and then you will get an overview of the surveys that are available. And you can see there are a lot of surveys available where I live. For me here, all these different ones are available, and you can also see an estimated time and the Swagbucks (SB), the currency they use, we’ll talk about the value of those later, that you will get. Also, the estimated time is quite accurate. As it is with all other survey sites, you will not qualify for all the surveys. That is just how it is. The reward you get per survey here, I would say, on Swagbucks is decent—it’s average compared to many other get-paid-to sites. But you should make sure to also use some of the other options.
Daily poll
One option you can also use that’s very easy is just this daily poll. Here you can just spend a second clicking here. So you just say “yes” or “no,” and you will earn one Swagbucks just by doing that. It takes literally one second, so that’s also a good thing to do.
Playing games
There are also these games. You can see there’s a play section, something you should definitely also check out if you like playing games. Again, how many games are available will depend on the country you live in. You can go there, you can sort it by device, by category, and also you can see how much you can earn. Just be aware that you will not just get this amount here, of course, just by installing it. You need to click and then read the exact conditions. And here you can then see exactly what you need to do. You need to install it for the first time and then you can see how much you would get depending on the level you reach there. Sometimes there are some levels or some tasks you need to do that will require investments, so then you need to calculate yourself. That’s how it is on all get-paid-to sites, whether it will be worth it or not. But the total earnings for the games are quite high, or the earning potential. But of course, it also does take some time and effort. Be aware of that. But it can be a fun way to earn some extra money if you like playing games, and it does have quite a lot of different games you can play to earn. Swagbucks also has a shopping section and cashback offers.
Cashback offers
Here you can find stores, meaning cashback offers and coupons. Cashback offers basically mean that whenever you’re shopping or doing something online, you will get a percentage back of whatever you’re going to spend anyway. So cashback offers, in general, are really great. How many of those are available really depends on your location. You can see where I’m located currently; there are really not a lot. But in some countries, they have hundreds of thousands of different cashback offers, so definitely worth checking out also. And be aware that you, for example, can also use the Swag Button that is related to this. This one here is where you will install the Swag Button in your browser. You will get a little bonus for that. But also, that means that you will get notified when you are on different sites that you’re going to shop from anyway if there is a coupon or cashback offer. So you won’t have to go to Swagbucks and check it. It’s definitely a great way to make sure you get the most out of it. You can also find a discover section. This is what on many other get-paid-to sites is called offers or paid offers or offer walls. You can see, you can filter it depending on what you’re looking for. You can also just go through and see the featured offers. Some of them are also from the gaming section, so just be aware of that. But you can also find the actual offer walls here. And just click one of those, and then you will see a lot of other offers. It can be to sign up for free trials, to play games, or to take additional surveys. There are quite a lot here. I would say the pay often on Swagbucks also pays decently compared to many other get-paid-to sites.
Surf and earn
Another way to potentially earn is to use this search and earn option. So you can basically search for any regular phrase you would. If you use it anyway, you can use it inside here, and then you will get a chance to win. It’s not guaranteed that you will win, but you will get a chance. Sometimes you will win, and you can win quite decent rewards. I believe it’s up to $50. I have never experienced that myself, but you need to, of course, not just sit and make fake searches. It needs to seem like it’s a general way you will search there, how you would anyway. And you can see it’s powered by Yahoo, and then you would just get these search results there, so you can use that, and then you get a chance to win. Again, it’s not guaranteed earnings. It used to be available just for anyone, but now you need to unlock it by completing, for example, a survey, playing a mobile game, or just completing an offer.
Upload a receipt
The receipt uploads, where you can earn from that, is something that’s not available where I live. But that’s just to show also this is what I said that there are some earning opportunities that are available in some countries that are not in others. But it’s very easy to live up to if you’re a member of Swagbucks anyways. You know, you will do at least one of these quite often, and then it is unlocked for 30 days. So it’s really easy to qualify for, and if you like using Yahoo anyway, why not once in a while use it here, and then you get a chance to potentially win a nice extra reward if you’re lucky.
Withdrawal methods
Let’s now talk about how you can get paid. I’ll show you exactly how you can do that and which options you have, and also show you payment proof. So I have now jumped to the redeem section. The exact options you have here will depend on the country you live in. You can see some options are gift cards, there’s AirTM, Payoneer, PayPal if you like getting paid in cash, and in some countries, they have more than 10 different gift cards you can choose from. It definitely has a good selection of different payout options, and it starts already at $5 for some gift cards. In some countries, I have even seen it down to like $1 or $2 only that you need to be able to redeem. But for this purpose here, you can see I will choose the highest amount I can get via PayPal, just because people have asked for PayPal payment proof. But it has other great options as well.
Payment proof
And here you can see, I got the option to choose.
