How to Win the Swag Haunt Team Challenge; Expert Tips and Tricks

Another Team Challenge is here! For those of you who are not familiar with team challenges, these fun events give you an opportunity to gain points as a team to win a prize, normally a Swag Up (a rebate on your next gift card). Points are not the same as Swagbucks. If you are new to Swagbucks I recommend you check out my guide to earning 80+ a month with Swagbucks.

Doing small offers on discover will be the fastest way to earn points. RadiumOne, PeanutLabs and other walls have dozens of 1 sb offers, and each of these will be worth 20 points for the team challenge. Mobile discover offers are worth 10 points each. Check out some of these too some of them have great payouts for not a ton of work. Also check adgate for the Insurance Branch offers.
One option is  to check the sponsored videos section and there are multiple options, I start by clicking on the guy with a laptop. Normally this takes about 10 separate clicks but only takes about two to three minutes. It's worth 2 sb each time you complete it and can sometimes be done 15+ times a day. If you see a girl in a tank top, always click on it, it'll be about 30 seconds, you must interact with the ad in some way, and it credits 2 sb each time. The others I do less often because they take more time and sometimes have issues crediting.

Do some watch when you get a chance, it's worth 15 points per completed playlist. Check out my instructions for doing this the quickest way to make the most through watch on the computer. This includes watch, Toolbar Tv .  NCrave is  being counted as watch this time around, and is also excellent for general earning.  The 1 sb ones will be the quickest way to get points. Try this list of the shortest videos to earn. Earning on the Swagbucks TV app will contribute 10 points to your team

A couple of recent offers that are working. Make sure to do these on desktop with your adblocker turned off and using the same email as you use for Swagbucks for the best chance of crediting.

Doing small offers on discover will be the fastest way to earn points. RadiumOne, PeanutLabs and other walls have dozens of 1 sb offers, and each of these will be worth 20 points for the team challenge. Mobile discover offers are worth 25 points. Check out some of these too some of them have great payouts for not a ton of work. One option is  to check the sponsored videos section and there are multiple options, I start by clicking on the guy with a laptop. Normally this takes about 10 seperate clicks but only takes a minute or two and can be done while doing other things. It's worth 2 sb each time you complete it and can often be done 15+ times a day. If you see a girl in a tank top, always click on it, it'll be about 30 seconds, you must interact with the ad in some way, and it credits 2 sb each time. The others I do less often because they take more time and sometimes have issues crediting. 

One offer that can really help is the EngageMe.TV from AdscendMedia. Keep playing it, but you have to keep it in the tab you are on to have the videos play. Each time it credits it gives you a credit in discover.

To get started on watch, look for the smallest playlists (6 videos or shorter). There is a good one under food that is 5 videos that is about pumpkins, it says 6, but it's really 5.

Some people will tell you differently, but doing the swagstakes is not worth it most of the time. The payout is guaranteed to leave some people losers, and you would be better off just saving your sbs for your next gift card. If you really want to though, it is worth points to your team, and if you don't think you can make it to 400 for the challenge, this could be a way to do it quickly.

How I made 80+ a Month In My Spare Time With Swagbucks

Trying to save money can be difficult, and sometimes you just don't have time for another job. I was poking around on Reddit and Facebook trying to find ways to make extra money and I ran across a site called Swagbucks. Me and my wife have made over $1200 in gift cards and PayPal from Swagbucks alone.

Much of the following guide comes from information I learned from reddit.com/r/swagbucks. I am a regular contributor on the SubReddit there, and use it daily to share tips I learn and to take advantage of tips that others have found. I have taken their guide and edited it extensively to add in some of my own personal experience to share with you.

This guide is meant for U.S. users. U.K, Canada, and users from other countries may not find the same exact experience.

Before I begin I want to show you my proof of payment, because you may be questioning if this is really a legitimate site and how much can actually be made on this site. If you follow these ideas you really can make this much, and there are people who make more.

To the right is a list of all of the gift cards/Paypal payments I've received in the last few months. So far by myself I've redeemed over 400 dollars in gift cards, my wife has redeemed over 200 dollars in gift cards/Paypal from Swagbucks. This is a long guide, but I think you will find that it is very helpful. This guide is meant for beginners. If you are not a beginner, check out my advanced guide.

Starting off:
Go to Swagbucks.com  

1.Provide the needed information including the same email you use for paypal if you want to be paid that way and use the Sign up code “RSWAGBUCKS” which is optional, but it will give you 70 free SB. 

• The box to type this in doesn't show up unless you click “I have a sign up code (optional)” which is under the “Confirm Password” Box.

There's also a $5 sign up bonus if you earn 2,500 SB within the first 60 days of membership. (This can be done easily by completing a couple of offers)

2.Just signing up will give you 4 SB. Now complete your profile, learn how you earn and Discover your rewards. That will give you 32 SB. This part is pretty self-explanatory. You can skip the tour, this rewards no SB.

3.At some point, verify your account through your email, sooner is better than later.

4.Hover over “Answer" on the Swagbucks Bar at the top of the screen. Click on Surveys. Fill out the info to give you surveys better targeted toward you. Earn 1 SB for entering your age/gender and 1 SB for entering your birthday. Earn 2 SB for every 10 Survey Profile questions you answer (these are found on the right side of the screen).

5.Install the SwagButton to receive 50 SB. The Swagbutton will notify you of swag codes(explained later) and other opportunities to earn. It is a safe browser add on, and I would encourage that you use Swagbucks with the Chrome browser for the best overall experience.

6. Start navigating through the pages down on the bottom left you will see a few items to check off. Your daily goal is listed in the top middle of the page between invite friends and the swag code box. This is important for free passive SB. More on this later.

7.As you earn you should know 1SB is approximately equal to $.01. 

8.The lowest payout is about 200 SB for an $2 Ebay gift card. The lowest redemption for Paypal is 2500 SB for $25 in Paypal cash. There are often discounts on gift cards, and once a month you can redeem a $25 gift card for 2200 SB. There have been recent additions including Steam cash. They do not do Disney gift cards yet.(though you can buy them using Target gift cards)

---

Daily activities and To-Do List: ~ at least 630 SB per month Bottom left side of the screen

1.Daily Poll- 1 SB, self explanatory

2.Deal of the day- 1 SB, Click on the link on the bottom left, it credits instantly. You do not have to actually complete the offer.

3.Daily Crave- 1 SB, Wait for it to check off, then click whether you like it or not. sometimes you will have to click whether you like it, and others you may have to make sure you click play on a video. You can keep craving and earn more through this. If you don't want the extra noise I recommend you mute the tab(this will not affect your earnings).
4. Watch- at least 1 SB this can be done through mobile watch, toolbar tv or by watching a playlist.
5. Search- at least 4 sb Search through Swagbucks to earn a search win. These are random, but if you just search a few times each day, you will get a search win. Use my guide here for more details on earning with search.
6. Deal of the Day- cllick on the link in the to-do list, it's worth 1 SB. Sometimes these offers can be amazing, so check them out. 

7. Answer- at least 1 SB. Attempt a survey and you'll get credit here
8. Discover, complete one offer to get this one completed.
9. Not actually on the list, but a definite thing to do. Play- 10 SB, play Swagasaurus Run or Swag Jump Score is irrelevant, lose and repeat. I prefer Swag Jump. It takes 2 times of playing to be credited 2 sb and you only have to hit about 4 jumps before falling for it to credit. This can take about 5 or 6 minutes to complete, but I recommend you do this while having a watch playlist or NCrave going.

Mobile Dailies (6 apps, 60 SB + Extra): SBTV, Entertainow, Moviecli.ps, Sport.ly, Indymusic.tv and Lifestylz.tv

Each of these has daily limits, however you generally get a chance with each app at earning bonus SB past the normal daily limit! Remember it generally is better if the bonus is more than 14 videos to move on to the next app until they are all done. 

1.Swagbucks tv- 10 SB: [iOS] [Android] (reduced to 10 as of February 16, 2016)

• You get 2 SB per 6 videos watched. Go to the “Home and Garden” category. Favorite “10 Sec Tip-Grass Stains or any "10 Second Tip" video by holding down on the video then selecting "Add to Favorites". Let these videos auto-run by watching them from your “Favorites.” This will take about an hour. You will know you have reached the maximum amount for the day when “You reached today's earning limit. Please keep watching!" shows up. You can now watch longer for a chance to earn bonus SB past the normal 36 SB limit if it is available.

2.Entertainow- 10 SB: [iOS] [Android]

• This app works the same as the previous, however it pays 2 SB per 15 videos watched. The shortest videos are under the category “Tv Spots.” I favorited “Touch.” This is the only one you will want to favorite since it is the shortest. Go to your “Favorites” and watch these till you reach the Daily limit or watch longer for a chance to earn bonus SB past the normal 10 SB limit.

3.Moviecli.ps- 10 SB: [iOS] [Android]

• It pays 2 SB per 15 videos watched. The shortest video is "The Other Woman" (with the hat) at 25s. Go to "Favorites" and watch until you reach the limit or watch longer for a chance to earn bonus SB past the normal 10 SB limit.

4.Sportly.tv- 10 SB: [iOS] [Android]

• It pays 2 SB per 15 videos watched. The shortest video is "Bizarre Sightings- Laughter Yoga" at 26s. Go to "Favorites" and watch until you reach the limit or watch longer for a chance to earn bonus SB past the normal 10 SB limit.

5.Indymusic.tv- 10 SB: [iOS] [Android]

• It pays 2 SB per 15 videos watched. The shortest video is "Love is All Around by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts" under the Rock section at 30 seconds. Go to "Favorites" and watch until you reach the limit or watch longer for a chance to earn bonus SB past the normal 10 SB limit.

6.Lifestylz.tv- 10 SB: [iOS] [Android]

• It pays 2 SB per 15 videos watched. The shortest video is "10 Sec Tips - Grass Stain Removal" under the "Garden" Channel. Go to "Favorites" and watch until you reach the limit or watch longer for a chance to earn bonus SB past the normal 10 SB limit.

Can't find the shortest video? Check through THIS LIST for the next shortest. The videos cycle, so make sure to check back later to see if there is a shorter one.

Passive Swagbucks: (Now this is Awesome!)

So you know all of those things that you already do above? Look over at the Daily Goal Section at the top of your screen between refer and earn and swag code.

1.If you reach the Daily goal (which can normally be reached solely through the apps) you will get bonus SB and it will count towards your “Winning Streaks.” Your daily goals will increase with the more that you earn. There are some people who have reported daily goals of over 600! This grants you at least 10% of your daily goal as your monthly bonus. You must redeem your monthly bonuses manually now before the 15th of each month or they will disappear.

2.The Second goal or “Total Goal” gives you more bonus SB, but does not have to be reached in order to count toward your “Winning Streaks.” It does however guarantee you a larger bonus at the end of the month. 

3.Winning Streaks:

• Meet Daily Goal 7 days in a row.............. 25 SB Bonus
• Meet Daily Goal 14 days in a row............ 100 SB bonus
• Meet Daily Goal 21 days in a row............ 200 SB bonus
• Meet Daily Goal every day in the month... 300 SB Bonus

4.Passive Earning Calculations for Goal One for a month (m):

• Reaching Goal One of the Daily Goal......... 90 SB/m
• Meeting Goal One every day for month..... 300 SB/m
• Referral SB............................................. ??? SB/m
• Complete passive amount....................... 390 SB/m

4.5Passive Earning Calculations for Total Goal for a month (m):

• Reaching Total Goal of Daily Goal............. ~482 SB/m(approx)
• Meeting Total Goal every day for m.......... 300 SB/m
• Referral SB............................................. ???? SB/m
• Complete passive amount....................... =782 SB/m (minimum)

5.Notes about Passive earnings:

• SB from Daily Goal and Winning Streaks are paid out on the 5th of every month, referral SB's are paid out as they're earned.
• Daily Goal rewards increase over time the more you complete it and the more SB you earn per day.

Additional Ways to Earn If You Have Time

1.Swag Codes- usually around 2-4 SB which are posted on their social media sites. Codes are posted quickly on/r/swagbucks and Twitter. Some codes have to be put into the swagbutton, and will be listed as such.

2.“Earn 2 Swag Bucks” and other offers that are sent to your SB Inbox. Some can be watched 2 or 3 times each.

3.Hourly Random Winner- 1,000 SB: Various Swagbucks Hourly Winner Notification Methods via IFTTT

4.Encrave: Auto watches videos for you. Found through Watch tab->Encrave->One of the boxes with the Replay symbol in the corner. Click the Discovery Mode button so there is a check mark to auto play. You may have to "unlock" the Encrave videos each day by doing 1-2 of the Encrave articles first. May not be available in Canada and the U.K.

• Tip: Use this when watching youtube/Netflix/Tv or whenever you are AFK(Away From Keyboard)

5. Surveys are a great way to make some quick cash, you won't qualify for every survey, but just take your time and answer honestly. Do not depend on surveys, as they can very suddenly fill up or disqualify you. If you have specific questions or issues, I have found the support to be fairly helpful with such issues.

6. There are many offers in discover, I cannot tell you which ones will work and which ones won't. I often check the swagbucks subreddit and the Swaggernauts Facebook group see which ones people have posted there. I recommend doing offers in incognito mode on Chrome, especially lifescript offers.

If an offer doesn't credit within the specified time period, contact customer service, they are very good at getting back to you. You can also contact customer service through their Facebook page. If you are trying to get 1 or 2 very quickly Swagbucks to get to your daily goal, I recommend Peanut Labs and Radium One. Sort by lowest payout for quick offers.

If you just do the mobile apps, play and the daily activities(poll, daily crave, NOSO) you can easily make about 80 SB a day.

I recommend you check out the Facebook and Reddit groups dedicated to Swagbucks. Some of these people have made thousands of dollars using Swagbucks. You will see daily tips on the best ways to earn.

Earning with Swagbucks can be passive and easy, don't make it harder than it has to be. Just have fun and join the communities for tips and tricks. If you enjoyed this guide please share this article with your friends.

How to Win the #GoFortheGold Team Challenge

From the Swagbucks Blog:

It's time for the Swagbucks Olympics and what better way to compete than with the Go For The Gold Team Challenge! Opening ceremonies are Monday, August 15th and the torch will be lit promptly at 8:01am PDT/11:01am EDT.

All members who participate and contribute at least 400 points to their team’s total will receive a SB bonus in the form of a SB Swag Up Rebate! Members of the1st place gold medal-winning team will receive a 50 SB Swag Up Rebate, members of the 2nd place silver medal-winning team will receive a 25 SB Swag Up Rebate, members of the 3rd place bronze medal-winning team will win a 15 SB Swag Up Rebate, and members of the 4th place team will receive a 10 SB Swag Up Rebate (sorry, there's no room on the podium at the medal ceremony for you). Your SB Swag Up Rebate will be made available on Friday, August 19th and will expire on Wednesday, August 31st at 11:59pm PDT. For more information, click here.

Decide Watch and discover will be the fastest way to earn points. Check out my instructions for doing this the quickest way to make the most through watch on the computer. This includes watch, Toolbar Tv .  NCrave is not being counted as watch this time around, but is excellent for general earning.  

To get started on watch, look for the smallest playlists (5 videos or shorter).

Some people will tell you differently, but doing the swagstakes is not worth it. The payout is guaranteed to leave some people losers, and you would be better off just saving your sbs for redemption. If you really want to though, it is worth points to your team, and if you don't think you can make it to 300 for the challenge, this could be a way to do it quickly.

If you want to boost your search wins I recommend following my instructions here to maximize your earnings there. For general earning check out my Advanced Guide to Swagbucks.

Discover can earn just as much as watch, if you have the set up going for max points on watch, you can move onto the discover tab and work on 1 SB offers in Radium One and Peanut Labs. This is an excellent way to max out your points in a day. You may also want to look at Mobile Discover, as these give more than discover on the computer, and some of these have easy payouts that confirm instantly, or that are easy and can earn you a lot of Swagbucks

I encourage you to check the Swagbucks subreddit or the swaggernaut facebook group for more helpful hints!

Good luck!

Advanced Tips For Earning With Swagbucks

If you're like me you have things to do, and are always trying to make the most out of your time online. I have found a way to earn a lot with minimal effort with Swagbucks. While for me I've been doing this while job hunting, this could easily be done while paying bills, watching Netflix, doing homework or just surfing the web.

I always try to make sure that I reach my first daily goal every day if possible, as this becomes an additional 600+ SB per month between the daily goals adding up and the monthly bonus for getting all 31 days. Don't worry too much because there are also bonuses for hitting smaller marks like 7, 14 or 21 days. By using the different tips I have in both of these guides you should easily make both goals every day.

The mobile apps are crucial to earning quickly and in the guide I outlined before there is great explanation on how to get the most out of the apps. I wanted to add another tip though. I bought a couple of cheap pre-paid phones from Kroger for $10, which allow me to run apps on them, including the Swagbucks TV apps, in order to earn money and not tie up my own personal Smartphone. You do not have to pay for a plan; just set it up on your home wifi and run the apps mentioned. A weekly published list of the best phones available can be found here. Just click on "cheapest devices of the week."

I mentioned NCrave and Watching videos before. I use 3 tabs at all times for Swagbucks, I recommend you mute them all, as it makes no difference to earnings. In the first tab I run watch. You only have to watch these videos until the check mark.(generally 40 seconds or so)

On the second tab I run NCrave which can be found under the watch tab. I recommend using Chrome for this. You will have to check back often, to advance it, but remember if you're moving away from the page, you can only do Ctrl+Tab(or Ctrl+Shift+Tab) to move away, and your mouse must be on the main part of the screen, otherwise the timer will not count down. Early in the year is a little tougher to get good amounts on these, but later in the year you will be able to get much higher amounts through Ncrave. This used to be easier and more automatic. Instead of always doing this, check under sponsored videos, I recommend the all you can eat and the guy with a laptop for 2 sb. Both can add up quickly.

The third thing I do is toolbar tv. You can technically play this from the Swagbutton, but I find it easier just to start from here. These playlists often require you to click on each new video, but sometimes will auto advance. 20 videos equals 3 SB. You only have to wait for the bar to advance to click on the next video.

Shop and earn. Swagbucks will pay you a percentage of what you spend on certain sites including Amazon, Ebay, JCPenney, Groupon, Living Social, Kohls, Walmart, and many other sites. Some sites, including Amazon, will limit the items the cashback will apply to.

Discover can be a big benefit in earning. This section includes hundreds offers from 1 SB to thousands. From my experience not all of these pay out. If you have issues I recommend you make sure you have proof (take a screenshot by using "printscreen" and saving the image) and contact support about these issues. Make sure you know the amount for the offer, and who it was through (popular ways to earn, Peanut labs, Radium One, etc.)

Surveys can be found in the Answer section. I try to finish at least one 50 SB survey every day if I can. These can be discouraging, though, as you can get disqualified or they can fill up quickly. If you run out of gold surveys you can always do more under Peanut Labs.

I love using the Swagbucks search engine to make money. I outlined how I make more in this guide.

Always be on the lookout for swag codes, they are posted almost daily, most can be found on Facebook.

I encourage you to check out the Facebook group that has over 20,000 members and the subreddit for Swagbucks to get extra help. Offers that credit are posted there on a daily basis.

Time sensitive tips:

Check out this guide to other offers you can complete quickly.

You can have multiple people in the same household with accounts on Swagbucks. Me and my wife have accounts, and I use one of the phones for my apps, and she uses one for hers. It is against their terms of service to have more than one account per person, so don't even try it.

There are always events going on, check their blog for the most recent events

Just remember to not get discouraged and if you are feeling burned out to take a break! I hope these tips help you in making a little extra money with Swagbucks.

For more information and to sign up for the competition go here.

My tips and tricks for this. Watch and Discover are going to be the fastest way to earn. Check out my instructions for doing this the quickest way to make the most through watch on the computer. This includes watch, Toolbar Tv and NCrave.

Discover earns you more than watch, and if you have the set up going for max points on watch, you can move onto the discover tab and work on 1 SB offers in Radium One and Peanut Labs. I also recommend you sort by lowest to highest, as this will maximize your time and points. The lower ones require less effort and often pay out more steadily.

If you want to boost your search wins I recommend following my instructions here to maximize your earnings.

Referrals are always a great way to earn more swagbucks, not only will you earn 10 points for your team, but you will earn an additional 10% of everything your referral earns forever!

I encourage you to check the Swagbucks subreddit or the swaggernaut facebook group for more helpful hints!

Good luck!
