5 Ways to Get Rewards:
1. Take Surveys
One of the ways that you can earn rewards is to take surveys and complete polls. It’s as simple as voicing your opinion on a certain topic. If you’ve ever left a review on Amazon or Trip Advisor you’ll be more than equipped to handle a Swagbucks survey.
The site asks that you answer questions as carefully as honestly as you can, as more often than not, you’ll be giving feedback directly to companies or organizations. You’ll get to choose from five different types of survey, and each will have an estimate on how long they will take to complete. Surveys can earn you anywhere from 10SB through 300SB.
2. Watch Videos
Another great way to earn SB points is to watch videos. These videos include movie trailers, health tips, parenting advice and all kinds of topics. The videos come from media like TV streaming service Hulu, the Food Network, and news-agency Reuters. How many SBs you can earn depends on the length and content of which video playlist you choose to watch.
You can run Swagbucks TV in the background while you do other things on your computer. And if you want to maximize your SB points can download lots of extra apps to view videos and keep your earnings high. According to the site, you can earn up to 500 SB points per day by watching videos.
3. Shop Online
You can also use the site to get cash back when you make online purchases at thousands of different retailers. There are already some great cash back sites like Ebates and TopCashBack, but if you sign-up to Swagbucks it’s a good idea to claim your cash-back through them.
The Swagbucks cash back portal goes by the name of ‘Swagbucks Shop’. You will earn SB for every dollar you spend, and it’s actually one of the quickest ways to earn. And, if you have the Swagbucks toolbar installed, whenever you browse the web you can if you’re on a web store that is compatible. There is also a dedicated 3% cash back section on Amazon to fit this purpose.
4. Search the Internet
You probably use Google’s search engine countless times a day, but if you switch to Swagbucks’ search engine, this is another way to earn those all-important SBs. Their search engine is actually powered by Yahoo, so you won’t need to compromise when it comes to search results.
To make use of this, just make Swagbucks your default search engine when your Firefox, Chrome, and Internet Explorer. You can earn 10-20 SB points for every 10-20 internet searches you make. After 6 months this totals as much as $300 in passive income.
5. Play Games
This one sounds like a no-brainer! If you already have a slight obsession with the likes of Temple Run and Angry Birds this might just be the easiest money you will ever earn. Swagbucks features lots of games like Bejeweled 2, Tetris Burst, Solitaire and a whole host of Casino-style games.
Some games cost $1 per play, but you will gain larger amounts of SB in comparison to the free games. Paid games can earn up to 18 SB per play, while free ones can earn you 10 SB. So, if you usually spend your time playing games, then do it through Swagbucks instead to earn additional rewards.
A popular gift card that you can earn from Swagbucks is the $5 Amazon Gift Card. It costs 450 SB, and depending on how often you use the sites and apps, will determine how quickly you can earn your rewards.
