I have been with MyPoints for years and I have been with Swagbucks for years.
Well. Swagbucks has bought MyPoints. If you go to MyPoints, you will see a lot of activities very similar to Swagbucks now.
Both sites are good sites. Both have been around a long time.
One thing I am really liking about MyPoints is that if you redeem points for an Amazon e-gift card, it is instant and I mean instant.

I did not know this. I'm on both and well I earn points for MyPoints often through BzzAgent as well. I know there are a few other similar sites but Swagbucks was the first site I signed up for that got me into trying to earn some extra money/gift cards online.

I am also a BzzAgent and that is how I became familiar with MyPoints. I never did much on it until recently and that is because Swagbucks is slow. I have been able to do a lot of surveys on MyPoints the last two days but there are none available to me on Swagbucks.

I did not know that Swagbucks bought out MyPoints.

I believe that it happened months ago. If you go to MyPoints, you will see an amazing similarity to Swagbucks.

@bostonphil I have seen the new Mypoints.com and it is very good.

I have not worked that hard at mypoints since swagbucks took them over, maybe I should. I went back to work and do not have time for sites if they do not do what they say. I have felt that SB was a little that way lately.

Swagbucks has slowed down the past few months. I hope things will pick up soon. It may be that Swagbucks is spreading itself too thin.
I have been working on MyPoints a lot the past three days because Swagbucks is slow.

They are separate sites and you can do the same thing on MyPoints as well as Swagbucks.I watch the exact same videos on both. I think that MyPoints has definitely improved since being bought by Swagbucks but Swagbucks seems to have slowed down. Maybe Swagbucks is spreading itself too thin.

Good attitude. I just cashed out for another $3 gift card to Amazon on MyPoints. I really love the instant award.

I wish they were all instant. Lol, the majority of the sites that I utelize are a couple days at the least. I remember once I waited like a week and a half for a swag amazon gc.
How many sites are you a member of?

I can not keep up with all the sites that I have joined. I am active on several with my top two being Swagbucks and Fusion Cash.
Its not available in our country.
