Swagbucks is a rewards platform, owned by Prodege, LLC, that pays members in points ("SB") for everyday online activity: shopping through its links, searching the web, taking surveys, watching videos, and playing games. When you shop through a Swagbucks link, it earns a commission from the retailer and shares a portion of it back to you as SB, which can be redeemed for PayPal cash or gift cards; membership itself is free. Cash-back rates vary by retailer and occasionally get boosted through limited-time multiplier promotions.
