SwagBucks

What is Swagbucks?

Swagbucks is a money-earning website almost identical to Gifthulk. I gave this website a bad review on my blog several years ago after it wouldn't allow me to redeem anything until I verified my account by phone. Since then, I've realized the necessity of the account verification for security reasons and have returned to using it.

How Do I Join?

1. Click on the banner at the top of this page, or click here.
2. Sign up using Facebook, or Email (recommended). Remember to give them your real email, or you won't be able to receive your confirmation link, special offers, and codes!
3. Follow all the instructions, and you're done! You even get some free Swagbucks (SB) to start off for verifying your account.

How Do I Earn SwagBucks?

Many of the methods are very similar to earning Hulk Coins on Gifthulk (home-page offers, surveys, tasks, search bar, videos, daily goal bonuses) so I won't be mentioning them again, as they are mostly self-explanatory. I will instead list the methods unique to Swagbucks and provide tips for each.

1. To Do List

This is actually three activities in one! You will find the To Do List on the left side of the home page.

Answering the Daily Poll will earn you 1 SB regardless of what you vote for.

Daily Crave is a relatively new feature that I have not tried out yet. I am unable to get it to load on my computer, so you can check it out yourself!

Clicking through all the offers in NOSO (No Obligation Special Offers) will earn you 2 SB even if you don't sign up for anything (I never do). Just keep clicking the blue "More Deals" next to the green Submit button on the bottom of every offer. At the end, be sure to complete the CAPTCHA verification so it knows you're not a computer.

2. Swag Codes

Very similar to Fountain of Youth codes. Even better, there's an awesome website that is updated every day with new Swag Codes! I used this website when I first signed up for Swagbucks over 3 years ago and it has always been reliable. It even tells you in real-time when it expires.

Here's the website: http://sbcodez.com

Just copy and paste the code into this box on the upper bar of the Swagbucks home page.

Redeeming Prizes

Visit the Swagbucks reward store here. Prizes include Amazon/eBay cards, PayPal credits, iTunes cards, Target, Walmart, and Starbucks gift cards... The good thing about Swagbucks is their huge prize variety. Unfortunately, it no longer has Karma Koin gift cards, one of the payment methods for Fantage. You can instead use PayPal, which is the only thing I ever redeem.

Note that the minimum value for some cards is higher than the standard $5 so it may take more time to redeem the larger amount. For example, the minimum value for PayPal credits is $25.
