Welcome to My Ultimate Guide to earning more Swagbucks. I’ve been using Swagbucks for over two years now and in 2015 I made over $500 in PayPal payments from the site alone.
I usually can reach the $25 cash amount a couple of times a month without much work.
In this guide, I’m going to show you the different ways to earn Swagbucks and some great tips on how to make more with each method.
Obviously, you’ll need a Swagbucks account. So if you don’t have one, you can join Swagbucks here.
Let’s go ahead and get started, here’s how to make some easy Swagbucks and make the most money possible at Swagbucks.com.
Ways To Earn Swagbucks?
Before we get into details on how to earn more Swagbucks, I thought I’d include a list of all the ways to earn.
[one_half_first]Taking Surveys
Watching Videos
Searching
Shopping
Completing Offers[/one_half_first][one_half_last]Playing Games
Referring Friends
Viewing Websites
Short Polls[/one_half_last]
Now there’re other great ways to earn at Swagbucks, but most fall into one of these categories. Next, I’ll cover how to get the most Swagbucks out of each category and some great ways to earn more Swagbucks!
Guide To Earning More Swagbucks
Swagbucks Surveys
Just like most sites that offer surveys, you have to qualify for the survey to take it and get paid. From what I’ve found the gold surveys seem to be the easiest to qualify for, and they usually have some featured surveys that only take a few minutes to complete with a high payment.
For some reason I’ve never had much success with the partner’s surveys, I’m not sure why, but I struggle to qualify for the partner surveys.
If you don’t like trying to qualify, I highly recommend just taking the daily poll. There’s only one per day, but if surveys aren’t for you, it’s the easiest way to earn Swagbucks by answering.
Swagbucks Videos
If you’re familiar with Swagbucks video, you know that it’s not a passive income type of thing where you can just start one video, and it keeps playing and earning. For that reason here’s my recommendation for making more with videos.
When you visit the watch tab, you’ll see playlists, where you’ll get paid a certain amount of Swagbucks to watch so many videos.
If you’re looking to maximize your earnings while not paying attention to the videos, find a playlist that has many videos in it and pays more than just 1-2 Swagbucks.
That way you don’t have to pay attention until all of the videos are over. This is much more efficient than just watching videos individually!
Swagbucks Search
Swagbucks search is probably my favorite way to earn. I search the internet all day so why not get paid for it. If you haven’t already, make Swagbucks search your default search engine. This will make sure that you’re always searching through them.
As you probably already know you don’t receive Swagbucks for every search and you need to search normally to earn.
What seems to work best for me is searching for products and services. I rarely earn when I search questions or information about something unless it’s a product.
Also, when I accidentally spell a word wrong in my search, it seems to always reward me Swagbucks. I don’t know if this helps or not, but it seems like it.
The key is using the Swagbucks search normally just like you would use Google, not trying to beat the system.
Swagbucks Shopping
Swagbucks shopping is probably the most lucrative way to earn at Swagbucks, but of course, it requires you to spend money.
I used to use Ebates a lot but have switched to Swagbucks; it seems that most of the rates are higher.
I highly recommend installing the Swagbucks Button (browser extension), because it tells you if you’re on a site that you could get cash back on.
Before I installed the browser extension, I bought things without really thinking I could get cash back through Swagbucks. With the extension, you’ll never miss a cash back opportunity.
I highly recommend comparing cash back rates on all the available stores before making a purchase. Rates differ from store to store.
Earn More Swagbucks Tips and Tricks
Daily Goals
A super easy way to earn a few extra Swagbucks each day is by hitting the daily goal. If you earn a certain number of Swagbucks, you’ll get some extra bonus Swagbucks for reaching the goal.
This is just a simple way to get bonus Swagbucks each day you use the site.
Swag Codes
I highly recommend following Swagbucks on their social media accounts. From time to time they’ll post Swagcodes on their Facebook page, Twitter, and Blog.
These codes usually award 3-10 Swagbucks and are super easy to find.
HINT: If you get the Swagbucks App it will notify you when there’s Swag Codes available and where to find them!
Swagbucks Credit Card
Now I’m not a financial manager so I can’t recommend this method, but Swagbucks does offer a credit card that pays you cash back in Swagbucks. I’ve used the card before, and it’s an easy way to earn more Swagbucks just for using the card.
You’ll earn 100 Swagbucks for every $2 you spend on the card. There’s also additional bonuses of 500 Swagbucks when you spend a total of $500 and 1,000 Swagbucks when you reach $1,000 in purchases.
If you’re already fiscally responsible and pay off your credit cards each month, this is a good option, but make sure to check out all the fees before moving forward.
Swagbucks App
If you have a smartphone, you need to have the Swagbucks app for a few reasons. The main one being that now you don’t have to be sitting at a computer to earn Swagbucks. The app lets you earn by watching videos, visiting websites (inside the app), taking surveys and polls, and shopping.
I highly recommend getting the app because it unlocks an easy way to earn Swagbucks when you’re away from the computer.
Swag Button
This is a browser extension that can help you get cash back on your shopping. When you visit stores, you’ll be notified if Swagbucks offers cash back at the store. If they do, you can quickly click the Swag Button to enter a shopping session that earns you cashback.
Sometimes we forget about getting cash back, so this is a great way to make sure you never miss it!

Swagbucks has definitely become one of the better survey sites as of recently. This site you own is not too shabby itself! Great work Brok.

Hi Brok,
Thanks for the Swagbucks information. I’m looking for many ways to earn income online. Every little bit helps. I definitely add this one to my list on income streams.
I am working on building an online website currently and this takes a lot of my time, but I am putting your site in my favorites so I can come back to it later to check out all the other great information you have in store for me to see!
Thanks for sharing some income information with us, but I have a question. Just how many of this income streams do you actually use and what do you say is your average total monthly earnings from them all?
Thanks for this information. You did a great job compiling all this information. I found it to be very interesting and useful.
Btw, I like the look of your site. Thanks again for taking the time to find all this tuff for us.

Hey Verna,
Thank you for the kind words and for taking the time to read my Swagbucks guide.
I’m a little bit confused by your question, but I’ll do my best to answer what I think your asking.
I believe your asking how much I make from Swagbucks and what percentage of my online income does it make up?
I usually make anywhere from $50-$75 a month with Swagbucks, depending on how active my referrals and I are on the site. My main income comes from affiliate sales though, so in the big scheme of things Swagbucks is probably 5% or less. I also make about the same on other similar sites like CashCrate and Fusion Cash.
Then about 90% of my income comes from Wealthy Affiliate My #1 Recommendation.
Hopefully this answered your question.
Thanks again for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment!

Thank you for your interesting tips and insights about Swagbucks Brok!
I have never been using Swagbucks but I have used quite similar sites. My experience is that you can certainly earn something from these sites but it won’t make you rich.
I prefer to use my time on other things that are probably more profitable and offer more value to people. My recommendation is also Wealthy Affiliate as it is yours 🙂
Thank you again!
-Roope
Hey Roope thanks for taking the time to read and leave a comment.
Like you said Swagbucks and other similar sites will not make you rich, but can be a decent little side income.
Also Wealthy Affiliate, My #1 recommendation is much better time spent. But it requires hard work and some people just aren’t interested in putting in the time. That’s why I also recommend Swagbucks to earn some extra side cash.
Thanks again for reading.

Hello
l tried Swagbucks back in 2010, the earning was so slow that in the end l just gave up.As it was it could have taken me years to make any money if at all.
I’m surprise you can reach the $25 minimum cash out in a month.l have seen ways one an earn in Swagbucks, but if im trying to earn,why should l spend money shopping to earn money?it does not make sense to me.
After all said, Swagbucks credit card is what l would personally find more useful for online shopping.
Thanks for the tips, l feel tempted to try swagbucks again.
Hey Roamy,
Thanks for checking out my guide. Although the PayPal gift card start at $25 there’s tons of other rewards that start at $5 so you can cash out much sooner than $25.
In regards to the online cash back shopping. In no way should you buy something just to get cash back. But if you’re already going to buy something online you might as well make a few bucks back on your purchase.
Thanks again for reading

Hi Brok,
To be honest, I actually hadn’t heard about Swagbucks before, but years ago I’d joined a site where you got paid to complete surveys. I never actually made enough to get paid, but this was 7 or 8 years ago when I was still in highschool.
At the moment it isn’t something I’m currently interested in doing again, but I’ll definitely keep all the info in mind just in case.
Thanks for taking the time to write about Swagbucks, I’m sure there’ll be plenty of people interested in it.
All the best,
Katia
Hey Katia, Thanks for checking out my Swagbucks guide.
The cool thing about swagbucks is that the cash out amount is pretty low at $5 so it’s not very difficult to reach the first payment.
I understand you’re not interested at this time, but feel free to share with your friends.
Thanks for stopping by
