There are so many ways to earn money on Swagbucks.  It’s one of the easiest ways to earn money at home. If you haven’t had the chance to read my post on The Basics of earning on Swagbucks, head on over to check it out.  In this post I’m going to go over other popular ways to earn beyond the basics.

Here are some additional ways to earn money on Swagbucks

1. Redeem Swag Codes

Swag codes are free SB provided daily by Swagbucks.  

  • Each code ranges from 2-3 SB
  • Each code is case-sensitive and expire after a certain time
  • You can find the codes on the Swagbucks Facebook page or on the Swagbucks Blog.
  • You can redeem a code in several places.
    • Enter it directly into the swagbutton.
    • In the swag code box on the swagbucks homepage.
    • In the Swagbucks app.

Tip:  If you have the swagbutton added to your browser, you’ll receive updates when a new swag code is available.


2. Add the Swagbutton

What is the Swagbutton?

  • Browser add-on (ex. Chrome Extension)
  • Alerts you when are on a website that offers sales, coupons, cash back offers.
  • Allows you to earn cash back while shopping through thousands of participating retailers.
  • Gives you the opportunity to shop, watch videos and redeem swag codes.  
  • Provides alerts when a swag code is available for you to redeem.  
  • Provides alerts when valid coupon codes are available and automatically apply the best coupon codes at checkout.

Tip:  Click on the bell icon to see if a swag code is available.


3. Print Coupons

Did you know that you could save money on groceries and earn SB at the same time?

Swagbucks gives you the opportunity to print out coupons on hundreds of items.

For every coupon you print out, you receive 1 SB.  You can earn up to 50 SB/day. Plus, you will earn 25 SB for every coupon you redeem.

Once you print out each coupon, it takes about 48 hours for the points to appear on your account.

What could be better than saving money on your groceries, plus earning money in the process?


4. In-store purchases

There are two ways to earn money back on purchases you make in-store.

In-Store Cash Back allows you to earn rewards while shopping in-person at participating local retail stores.

  • Add one or more credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) to your Swagbucks profile.
  • Link an available In-Store Cash Back offer to your card.
  • Shop at the store using your linked credit card.
  • Earn cash back. (takes approximately 10 days)

Offers must be linked to your card before you make a purchase.  Offers must be valid and not expired.

  • Select In-Store Deals on the Swagbucks Shopping Page.
  • Browse your Offer List and select Add Offer.
  • Make your purchase in store.

5. Referrals

Referring friends and family is an easy way to earn SB passively.

Did you know that you can earn 10% of the SB they earn for life?

  • Refer a friend
  • They sign up using your referral code
  • You both earn a 300 SB bonus
  • Continue to earn 10% of their earnings (example: They earn 200 SB; you earn 20 SB)

Click on Invite your friends to start your referral.

You have the option to send your referral via email or share your referral link via social media.

Receive an extra 100 SB when someone you refer adds the swagbutton.


6. Swagbucks Live

Do you like trivia games?   How about earning money for playing trivia games?

Swagbucks Live is a fun and easy way to earn SB.

You earn cash just for playing and a grand prize if you answer all the questions correctly. If multiple players answer all 10 questions correctly, you split the prize with the other winners

If you answer a question incorrectly, you’re eliminated from winning the grand prize.  However, you still can continue to play the game and earn points/SB for each correct answer.

The first time you’re eliminated you have the option to rejoin by either redeeming your SB or using a free rejoin (earn rejoins by referring friends).

  • Download the Swagbucks Live app.
  • Login to the app with your Swagbucks login.
  • Allow notifications to be reminded when a game is about to start.
  • Games are typically Monday thru Thursday.

7. Swago

What is Swago?

It’s a fun way to earn SB by completing activities on the Swago Board.  It’s like playing a game of Bingo.

Swago is available just about every other week.

  • Each square on your Swago board has an associated activity.
  • Complete that activity to mark off the square.
  • Each pattern of squares completed will give you a different bonus.
  • The patterns and bonus are located to the right of the Swago Board.
  • Once you complete a pattern, the submit button will turn red.
  • You can only submit one pattern.

8. Answer Mobile App

With the Swagbucks Answer app you can receive points for each completed survey and exchange them for premium gift cards. Give your opinion about movies, tv shows, shopping experiences and even new products/services.  The app is really convenient and allows you to earn while you are on the go.

Easy ways to earn SB from the app:

  • Answer the Daily Poll
  • Upload shopping receipts for 2 SB each
  • Upload clothes retailer receipts (JCPenney, Kohl’s, Marshalls, Nordstrom Rack, TJ Maxx, Belk, Lord & Taylor, Macy’s, Men’s Wearhouse or Nordstrom’s) for 15 SB each.
