    Can someone tell me how to do the activate the swagbutton Swago squares? Nothing I've tried has worked.

    I already had the swagbutton installed.
    I just clicked on the square, swagbutton flashed, the browser took to me to the site and I clicked to go to the shop. After a few secs the blue banner at the top either said earn xSB per pound Activated or I had to click to activate the tracking.

    Once I'd done that , I refreshed the screen with the Swago Board and the square has filled in.
  • OK, here's what worked for me for the mobile ones (using Android)

    Download the Swagbucks app from the Play store.

    Instead of going into the Shop section, use the search function on the app (magnifying glass at the top) to search for the site, eg First Choice.

    Above the main Yahoo search results, you should see a Swagbucks Results with a blue button saying "Shop Now" - click on that button, and voila the square should light up!

    This worked for all except Very and Life Extension for me. For Life Extension, I found it in the list of shops and clicked on the Shop button, then finally it worked.

    For the swagbutton squares, I just clicked on the square on the board, and you get a blue SB banner at the top - click on Activate and wait for it to be ticked, and that should light up the square.

    Hope that helps someone - sorry if it still doesn't work for you.

    (I still can't get the Very square to work, but it seems neither can anyone else...!)

    My OH uses Chrome, he couldn't get the swagbutton ones to work either so he right clicked on the swagbutton: chose manage extensions and ticked 'allow incognito' then he tried again and this time it worked once he had got to the shop page, clicked to shop and waited for the Activate button to appear in the blue bar at the top.

    Hope it works for you
  • The mobile links on the swago board only started working for me after clearing the cache on iphone browser (safari). It doesn't have to be done through the app, through the website is fine - either the shop link or the links on the swago board itself.

    As everyone else is reporting, Very is still not working though.

    Can someone tell me how to do the activate the swagbutton Swago squares? Nothing I've tried has worked.

    I tried all the suggestions (incognito, etc.), and nothing worked. So, I started from scratch, using the steps below, and it FINALLY worked!!! I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA if all or any steps were necessary (so please don't feel the need to tell me!). but I got a result!
    1. Uninstalled SwagButton.
    2. Logged out of Swagbucks.
    3. Cleared Cookies and Browsing History
    4. Closed and reopened Browser (I'm using Chrome + Windows 10)
    5. Logged into Swagbucks.
    6. Reinstalled SwagButton
    7. Right clicked over Button to tick Incognito via Add-Ons
    8. Went to Swago Board
    9. Clicked on the Swago square for Argos.
    10. When the web page came up, the Blue Banner appeared across the top, now saying 'Activate' (prior to all this, it was already saying 'ActivatED' at this point). Did NOT go to SwagButton, just clicked Activate on the Blue Banner.
    11. Refreshed Swago board, and Argos square has changed colour!
    12. Ran through the rest.
    13. Only have Very outstanding now!

    Hope that helps.
