How to Make Extra Cash Online-SWAGBUCKS

Hey everyone,

Hope you all a great Christmas break and Happy New Year!

So for awhile I was contemplating about what I should write next and I thought why not tell the world of this awesome new website that I've been using recently that is a legit site that pays you through gift cards in addition to providing other services for you. So the site is called Swagbucks and to my knowledge it has been up for a long time (since 2008) and is a California based company. So how I got into this amazing website is by just going online looking for Stay at Home jobs for moms that can bring in some extra cash. So when I stumbled upon Swagbucks I was completely skeptic, you hear about all these scams online and I wasn't going just throw myself into a site giving personal information and such when it could possibly be a potential scammer on the other side of the computer. So I looked online and it was praised by a vast amount of people who use it with their proof of free gift cards.

I signed up and tested the waters and it took awhile to understand how the site works that allows to give these mass amounts of gift cards at no charge to you. The way Swagbucks works is name brand companies or survey companies, pay Swagbucks to feature their items for promotional value or to get input from the consumer and in turn Swagbucks gives you virtual currency that when accumilated can be turned into giftcards.

Here are some of the ways you can earn "Swagbucks" :



  • Search Engine-while online your probably on google, yahoo, or bing and are searching random topics of interest. Swagbucks has a search engine that if you use several times a day you earn "swagbucks". You won't get "swagbucks" for every search but you do get some for something your already doing.
    • The most I've gotten from this is 15 bucks.
  • Watch-in this one you can watch videos that will either add up to 3 or 2 "swagbucks". Videos may be from a commercial for a product, a trailer to an upcoming movie, how to, fashion, cooking tips, entertainment. 
    • You can go to Watch, Encrave, Swagbucks TV (smartphone app).
  • Play video games-Swagbucks has some of thier own games that are a good way to kill time online. The most you can make is I believe 10 a day from this area, don't quote me. You can get two "swagbucks" every other time you play.
  • Polling and Answering Surveys- So in the site there is a Daily poll that is worth 1 "swagbuck" and all you have to do is answer that one question. Surveys are on various topics and products and can be on a new product and its packaging and how consumers feel about it or can be about questionnaire on movies you've seen, medicines you've used, insurance, household products...list goes on. In my opinion this is the best way I've made "swagbucks" considering the most I've seen for surveys IF YOU QUALIFY is around 300 "swagbucks". 
    • The only downside is if the survey is looking to ask a particular group you won't qualify and all the questions that may have taken a long time to do is for nothing but a measly 1 "swagbuck".
  • Shop and coupons-in this one I've not used it yet, but what you do is if you know you are going to shop at Footlocker online, and Swagbucks has a promotion for it, which is for every dollar spent you can earn a certain number of  "swagbucks". Sometimes they will have featured promotions that will give you up to 10 times worth of "swagbucks" for every dollar spent. Also if you print out coupons from the site and it is used during a purchase, when it is redeemed at the store, you can get "swagbucks".  
    • For this one I think it's neat and would love to try this because it's stuff you already buy, so why not get a discount and/or virtual money back. 
  • Scavenger Hunts- swagcodes can be found on Swagbucks' blog, Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram which basically is a word you find and input in he swagcode box for "swagbucks". Amounts vary.
So I've recently felt the need to redeem some of my earn "swagbucks". The ones that seem to be a better idea for you to get that is less money is the Amazon $5 gift card that is worth 450 "swagbucks" which is a bargain to me since other $5 cards are worth 500.  They do offer other gift cards and sweepstakes for chances to win more "swagbucks" or gift card giveaways.  Some of the other Rewards in gift cards are: Wal-mart, Target, Visa, PayPal, Starbucks, Ebay, Itunes, CVS Pharmacy, Facebook, Gamestop, Burger King, Sephora, Best Buy, Home Depot, and many more. Or if you want to do good there are a lot of places to donate to as well for a good cause. These are the e-mails and confirmations that are pictured below.
