Our Verdict
This seems like a good deal for the $100 from Swagbucks. And even the second $100 from Path seems like a decent deal – risk $100 being held in an unsecured account for 90 days in order to get $100 of Bitcoin. Personally I usually keep away from crypto deals as I haven’t gained a comfort level with how it all works.
Hat tip to Carlzjr
If you’re new to Swagbucks, please read our review. You can also get a bonus of up to $13 by using a referral link.
Has anyone received the bonus from either Swagbucks or Path? I’ve received neither. I opened the account when this was first posted on DoC and met the requirements.
Yes, this paid out for me without a ticket. It tracked and i did the offer shortly before it was posted here.
Swagbucks paid already. Path one requires 90 days so won’t know yet since I signed up a month and half ago.
The deal is back, but it is 5,500 SB now.
The terms of service say a $100 minimum account balance is required. A $5 monthly fee is assessed for balances $101-1000, however in the app it says the fee is assessed at $100.
If I am reading this right, they can revoke the $100 match if your account balance falls below $100 within 90 days. A deposit of $115 would be necessary to absorb the fees and still get the Bitcoin match.
Did they fix the Gemini funding issue? If we fund now do we still receive Swagbucks/Mypoints?
This is a first.. I opened a Swagbucks ticket over non-pending Path offer.. and it’s been almost 2 weeks and still haven’t heard anything.. not even acknowledgment they received my ticket. Anyone else in this boat?
This is exactly happening to me.
I had also thought my ticket went into SB black hole but received email earlier today which basically says “to wait and be patient…”
Thank you for reaching out to Swagbucks Customer Care! I understand that you might be eager to see the results of your offer. It seems that based on the completion date mentioned in your ticket, the pending period outlined in the offer terms has not yet elapsed. While certain offers might not immediately show as pending in your ledger, it’s crucial to remember to wait for the specific time mentioned in the offer terms. Your patience is appreciated as we work through this process together.
so there’s hope!
I just thought it’s strange.. my experience with SB is I usually get a response (even just generic canned response) within 24 or 48 hours.. this is the first time where it’s been weeks and no response..
but I guess I just need to wait my turn for the canned response.. lol and hopefully it automatically posts.. it’s just super confusing when some SB users have their points instantly pend and others have to wait weeks and weeks to see whether it pends or not :/ I guess it comes down to whether or not the SB partner is honest and trustworthy or not.. since this is a small crypto start-up.. I would say it’s probably not trustworthy? but maybe I’ll be pleasantly surprised.
I got this CS reply regarding the Gemini funding issue:
“We are in the process of building out a solution that will work for all future customers. In the meantime, the workaround is to create a new account using an email that is different from what you have used for Gemini in the past.”
Another funding option is to use an external wallet. I may try to transfer $100 from Coinbase since this would be worth $200 between the SB and the Path bonus.

Yep! Just got that reply too. Basically, we’re screwed because that means no bonus from Swagbucks!
edit – removed comment, I was giving incorrect info on transfer using external wallet
Anyone else in the same boat…?
3 days later still no tracking on Swagbucks.. only “visited”
no checkmark
no pending
no email from Swagbucks
also no email from Path regarding the $100 BTC.. checked spam folder, etc.
a bit annoying and frustrating
i want to file a ticket with Swagbucks but looks like need to wait a bit longer before can contact. I thought it was 2 days waiting.. maybe it’s longer now?
I did through Mypoints. Funded the same time.No emails from Mypoints, status just visited. Unfortunately I did not make a screenshot of MP promo. Got BTC promo email from Path though.
I’m doing Upside bonus through MyPoints, it just pended 3400 points. Very easy signup.
I”m getting the same Gemini loop as others and had forgotten that I made an account on Gemini for REVU offer. I just closed it and hopefully that didn’t make things worse.
Turtling on this one saved me some grief.
Does anyone can share mypoints path offer screenshot? I opened account and funded yesterday but it looks like mypoints doesn’t track it (the funding).
