Swagbucks keeps telling me it can't verify my account. Everything in my paypal account matches my swagbucks account and my paypal is fully verified. Thoughts??

I wish I had an answer to this, I don't, I am having the same issue. Both my boyfriend and I have been trying to redeem our Swagbucks and Swagbucks keeps saying it's a paypal issue, but there does not seem to be a problem on the paypal side. We are sending a message to Swagbucks customer support and I'll report back if we figure anything out.

I apologize for not getting this update up sooner. I discovered that even though paypal gives "verified" status as soon as you link a card, you have to have a direct bank accounty linked(account # and routing #) in order for swagbucks to recognize that it is a verified account and send gift cards. It's kind of a pain because you have to wait for paypal to deposit and withdraw a small amount of money in your account to verify it and it took about a couple days to complete the process but now everything works fine.

So you have to have an account from a bank linked to you paypal account in order to link your swagbucks account to receive swagbucks rewards? What if you had a debit card link to your paypal? That has a account no. and routing no. right?

Hi Dust1,
Good question - a debit card does not have a routing number and account number. The only option to be verified would be to add a bank account. I apologize for any inconvenience!
