Swagbucks: Easy Swagbucks Routine To Make 3,000 Points Per Month.

Have you heard of Swagbucks? It finds its way onto most “how to make money online” lists, but I had never actually given it a try. That’s mainly because I assumed that it was either too good to be true or just would require too much time and effort.

But I have some good news! One of our readers submitted this helpful guide on how to make the most of Swagbucks by only spending five minutes a day. This is perfect because most of us won’t have too much time to invest in it, and five minutes is pretty easy to pull off while watching TV or doing chores around the house. If you follow this guide, you’ll earn at least a $25 gift card in the first month, and at least enough points for another gift card every 35 days afterward. Of course, you can scale this up or down as you see fit:

Step 1: Sign Up with a New Email Address

When you sign up for Swagbucks, you’ll probably want to use a new email address, because if you later sign up for offers to get more points you will receive quite a bit of mail. The easiest way to keep up with this is to use your normal email address but add “points” to the address. So, for example, rather than brad@… you would use bradpoints@…

Step 2: 60 Points from Swagbucks Video Apps

There are six Swagbucks video apps that provide easy ways to accumulate points. They are called SBTV, EntertaiNow, Indymusic, MovieClips, Sports and Lifestyle. You can play these throughout the day. While they sometimes get stuck in an advertisement, they generally play on without your guidance.

SBTV

This app will earn 2SB for every 6 videos watched, for a total of 10SB a day. To make this go faster, look in the “Home & Garden” section in the menu and look for “10-second tip….” videos. Add them to your Favorites list by placing your finger on that video and pulling to the left, then let go. Then play your Favorites list, even if it’s only one video.

Other Video Apps

EntertaiNow, Indymusic, MovieClips, Sports and Lifestyle all earn 2SB for every 15 videos played, for a max of 10SB each. Again, you can add short videos to your favorites list to make this go faster. Lifestyle has a Home & Garden section, so look for those 10-second videos there. The others all have “Short Clips,” filled with comedians. There is usually someone in there who is less than 20 seconds. Some of the apps have “TV Spots,” and there are lots of short clips in there. You will start recognizing them and making a favorites list fast.

Step 3: 10 POINTS from Swagasaurus

On the computer go to “PLAY” on the left. Scroll all the way down and pick “Swagasaurus.”

You will earn 2SB every other game. You don’t have to even “play” the game (though it is quite fun), and you could just let the dinosaur run off the cliff. Your score makes no difference here in earning SBs. You can play and earn 10SB a day.

Step 4:­ 1-4 POINTS from To-Do List

On the left side of the screen, you will see a To-Do List, which will give you 1 to 4 points for completing at least 6 of the 8 items. Complete all 8 items on your to-do list, and you’ll receive an additional and even bigger SB Bonus! Keep in mind, you may also get points from the tasks themselves.

Redeem Your Gift Card

If You follow just the first 4 steps above each day for one month, you’ll end up with at least 2,220 points (74 x 30). That’s perfect, because in the first month you only need 2,200 Swagbucks to earn a $25 gift card. After that, you’ll need 2,500 SBs, which will take just a few more days to earn. Or, you can follow the additional tips below to earn a few more points each day.

Extra Tip: Bonus Points from Daily Goals

At the top of your screen, make sure you click “Daily Goals” and “enroll” in them. Each day they will give you a bonus if you reach the first Blue Goal. Once that is hit, a higher Red Goal is set. If you reach that also, then you get that higher bonus instead of the Blue Goal bonus (It’s usually about 10% of your goal).

You will be alerted to claim these points at the beginning of the following month, as one lump sum. Also, notice the “Winning Streaks” in that Daily Goal dropdown
