We publish the measured side with its date and label the other — the difference in evidence is the point, not a gap we paper over.

Questions
Which pays more, Swagbucks or Freecash?
We measured Freecash's featured offers directly; Swagbucks' wall requires a login, so we publish no figure for it. The honest answer: Freecash's published offers are dated and shown; Swagbucks is listed, not measured.
Is Swagbucks or Freecash safer to sign up for?
Both are long-running platforms with public terms. We captured what each publishes without a login and dated it; anything behind a signup is stated as such rather than estimated.
Do you get paid to promote one of them?
We may receive a referral fee if you join through a link on this page. It is the same fee whichever site you pick, and it never changes what we publish.
How we earn
We may receive a referral fee when you sign up through a “Claim” link. We earn the same fee whichever site you pick, so the ranking is not rigged toward any partner.
The figures come from the sites’ own public data, captured and dated by us — not from what a partner pays to say. See our affiliate disclosure and methodology.
