The Offer
- Swagbucks is offering 10x points (worth 10% cash back) on purchases made on SamsClub.com
Our Verdict
Gift cards aren’t excluded and given Topcashback is offering 6% on gift cards I suspect it will work for Swagbucks as well. Can’t see this lasting long if that’s the case and some might prefer to lock in the 6% considering Topcashback specifically calls out gift cards as working. Sam’s Club sells Sam’s Club gift cards, as well as third party gift cards and even Visa & Mastercard. Citi Dividend is also offering 5% cash back on Warehouse online purchases this quarter as well.

Swagbucks just clawed back mine today. I wonder if they just waited until I had enough to claw back.
Purchase made on 10/31. 2 x $100 Sam’s gift cards.
Cashback of my order from Sam’s Club was clawed back today, January 3rd. Order placed on October 31, 2020. Product purchased: $500 GC.
Follow-up: Cashback re-credited back to my account after submitting a ticket and provided the proofs.
Normally there’s nothing worth complaining about in our hobby, however because gift cards were explicitly not included I’m tempted to submit a ticket to SB. I’ll probably let this play out a bit and see if anything happens to the other six that are ok (for now). Might be a good heads up for others though, especially if it put their SB balance negative.
Thanks for the info
Hi do Swagbucks live and last week if you join Sams club you receive 3000 swag bucks how am I to do that because I don’t find where I can take a picture of a receipt
first two GC orders tracked at 12%, but the 3rd one on Nov 1 only showing 4%
Placed my order on the 31st. Swagbucks registered that I visited Sam’s through them but still haven’t received anything pending from them yet.
I’ll update if/when I get the pending confirmation from them.
Just to update for everyone. I never got confirmation and had to end up contacting Swagbucks. They got back to me extremely quickly and credited me 10% for the transaction. Frustrating that Sam’s didn’t forward my transaction to them but happy they sorted it quickly.
Swagbucks also offers 3,000 points if you join Sams Club (offered on the same page). I was not a member of them and decided to try. This morning, I put three separate orders through the Swagbucks offer>>>Sams Club:
First order: $45 for one-year membership.
Second order: $800 Sams Club physical gift card.
Third order: $200 Visa Gift Card (Fee: ~ $6).
Untill now, I have not received any pending SBs or confirmation e-mails from Swagbucks. Will see whether I can get those points tomorrow.
Things are strange for me. This morning, I got those things:
First order: Got the 3,000 SBs pending. However, there were no confirmation e-mails for this order. I saw the pending points from my Swagbucks online account.
Second order: No confirmation e-mails nor pending SBs so far. I will wait until the coming Monday. If I still do not see pending SBs at that time, I will submit a ticket to Swagbucks.
Third order: Got a confirmation e-mail and pending points. However, I got 2,478 SBs for the VGC (face value $200 + activation fee of ~ $6). This means I got 12% cashback on the VGC. This is different than the experiences of other folks here.
I just placed another order for five $200 VGC. Will report back regarding whether I get the SBs.
I’ve purchased four between two orders. You’re good. Deal expires today. Gotta say that you’re bold for purchasing multiple hundred dollar orders w/o receiving confirmation that you got the SB for the first order lol. SB is inconsistent w confirmation emails. I’ve done dozens of deals and hardly ever get a confirmation before or after I place orders or get points.
Do you mean that my order for the Sams Club gift cards will be finally tracked? Thanks.
I know I am taking the risk of not receiving the cashback bonus from Swagbucks. But I purchased more VGCs because my first VGC was corrected tracked. I did not purchase more Sams Club gift cards because my first Sams Club gift card is not tracked after one day.
By the way, I used my BOA 123 card for all those purchases. On that CC, I chose the 3% cashback category to be Online Shopping. I hope that I will get the 3% cashback for those online orders from Sams Club. Right now, the transactions on the BOA card are pending, and I cannot tell whether those orders will trigger the 3% cashback bouns.
The deal will end today? I hope it will last longer. If my previous orders all correct track, I plan to order more VGCs in the offer is still alive.
How to liquidate those VGCs? I do not have a good idea now. Technically, I can purchase MOs using them. However, each card has only $200. It would be too much trouble for me to liquidate them that way–I really do not want to bring the attention of the store by using multiple VGCs to purchase MOs. I am afraid that I will kill the store by doing that, and life for me will be much harder in the future when liquidating $500 VGCs. Visiting the store and purchasing a MO for ~$199? That would be too much work for me.
Maybe I can use those $200 VGCs for paying my monthly rent? Each time when I use a debit card for the monthly rent, I will be charged a convenience fee of $3.95. It is not too bad considering that I could get ~10% cashback for those VGCs.
Maybe I can also use those $200 VGCs for daily spending?
This morning, I found that all my previous orders from Sams Club correctly tracked. I got 12% cashback on BOTH the Sams Club gift Card and VGCs.
By the way, the link for the offer is still alive. However, when I clicked on it, Swagbucks generated a banner showing: Up to 4% cashback. Before, the banner showed: Up to 20% cashback. So, I think that the promotion has just ended.
Ordered a $200 VGC yesterday, but unlike others I don’t seem to have received any pending swagbucks.
Update: 2478 swagbucks pending for a VVGC order totaling $206.48
Anyone tried the 10%-20% Samsclub cash back for regular items? I see SB also has a 750/1500 pt offer for buying 3 to 6 Member’s Mark items. Will these all track and pay if I do in-store pickup/curbside pickup? Or is it for shipping only?
Pickup/curbside should track. I did curbside couple months ago and it tracked.
Thanks
I’m guessing the 3-6 Member’s Mark offer is only for the items in the 20% promo? I have more than enough paper and cleaning supplies for now. There’s a lot of other good stuff I could buy if it’s for all Member’s Mark products.
Bought $200 VGC yesterday ($206.48 with fee). This morning got congratulations email from SB with 2,065 points pending for 32 days. I am thinking of purchasing one more $200 VGC. I also purchased with PPK for the 5x UR.
