Our Verdict
20% off is pretty good for Nike gift cards. Even at the current (low) resale rates on Nike, it might work for some people who have the right relationships to break-even or make a small profit plus credit card points on this deal. Of course, it’s also great for buying shoes.
A few slight advantages to this deal over some other Nike gift card deals:
- Swagbucks points can be redeemed for a bit more than 1 cent-per-point if done right (currently eBay is 10% off )
- You can buy higher denomination cards; most sales are on $50 cards, here you can buy up to $150 in a single denomination
- You earn credit card points on the entire purchase since the cash back comes to your Swagbucks account and not off the top
I’ve never had a problem with Mygiftcardsplus points hitting my Swagbucks accounts right away. My experience has been that when they run deals like these, they deliver the cards quickly (mine took 1.5 hours). AT&T used to work for 3x, but I don’t know if that’s still true since the July 22 change.

Bizarre. There's a banner add about the promotion but the Swagbucks aren't being added to the cart. Additionally, it never asked me to link my Swagbucks account. When does this usually happen?
its back and last step after you buy is to link to SB
Still not working for me. When did it show the 20% back instead of the 5% back. I went all the way through except actually clicking to buy.
It should show you when you add quantity, no need to go all the way. Once you see it and if your email id is same as SB then automatically links it at last step. Keep trying for 20% back.
It's definitely going back and forth between "working" and "not working" --- I tried last night, no go, this afternoon, I just checked quickly via phone and it was 'working' and bonus SB showed in cart.... I got busy and wasn't able to checkout -- checked again an hour later, and the bonus SB was gone... and went back to 'not working' ... lol. Just keep checking I suppose.
doesnt seem to work right now
Was able to do $450 worth of Nike gift cards. Got gift cards delivered almost instantly and Swagbucks were in my account right away. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for this. Bought and sold. Easy $500 spend to meet minimum spend.
Seems dead again. Will try again in a few hours.
I'm also not seeing any 'bonus days' SB added in cart at the moment. Will also try again later.
I assume ink doesn't get 5x with or without PayPal.
Money! Thanks Chuck
Never mind. Good again
Seems to be dead now
thanks chuck,
easy profit and spend
