    I understand that but I prefer to get the cash into my PP account where I can use it against a variety of things :-)

    I used to get PayPal as I'm the same wanting the cash for other things but I've started getting MasterCard on someone's advice here and then issuing myself an invoice from my PayPal account to another (unassociated) email address and using the MasterCard to pay it. You get £4.63 for each £5 MasterCard out of swagbucks and someone very kindly worked out that with the PayPal fee you are still getting more than if you​ bought PayPal from swagbucks directly.
    - Mortgage: 1st one down, 2nd also busted
    - Student Loan gone
    Swagbucks, Mingle, GiffGaff, Prolific, Qmee & Quidco; thank you MSE every little bit helps

    I usually do short clips and just tried favourites but its just the same, it will play one then just sits there with the wheel spinning and I have to go into the settings to force stop it

    Restart phone?

    cant get the sportly app to work today it just keeps sticking on the little spinning wheel :mad:

    Several of them are being annoying for me today (tried switching to short clips etc) fortunately I don't need the bucks for the daily goal.

    Thanks, Ok, so a few questions:
    - do I need some kind of MasterCard account?
    - what PayPal fee? I always receive the full amount.

    Have just uninstalled and reinstalled and fingers crossed that might have fixed it (currently on the 4th short clip without sticking), so might be worth a try.

    Edit: spoke too soon, gone again!

    It helps to regularly go into the phone's storage settings and clear the app cache's often. When it's crashing, it is often helpful to clear the data and then log back in. Those adds the apps play can often be left in the phone's data and this really seems to slow the phone down and stops vids showing.

    No you don't need a mastercard account swagbucks will send you all the details you need to spend the card.


    paypal will credit you £4.63 for each £5 mastercard payment.


    I use a spare email address ( not linked to paypal) then go into paypal account and send an invoice (for example £5) to your spare email address, when you receive the invoice just enter the details swagbucks have sent you for the masterard and send it, this will then show on your paypal account.
    620 sb for £5 MasterCard
    800 sb for £5 Paypal


    because you only get £4.63p in your paypal account a quick calculation means equivalent 666Sb for £5 MasterCard
    so comparison into paypal account
    £5 paypal 800sb
    £5 MasterCard 666sb (only while sale on)

    I used safari on iphone and it worked, browser should be fine.

    Thank you Super Trouper, I had already tried to click the mobile squares through Chrome and it didn't work. I was about to submit my Swago board for 50sb, but gave Safari a try after reading your post and it worked!!! I've been able to submit for 125sb. :j Thank you to you and all the others so much for the helpful posts, I'm learning all the time. :T
