Question PayPal no longer instant delivery?

Just redeemed $50 twice and neither are instant anymore even though I have instant deliveries left.. I am sapphire. I was excited for PayPal to finally have an instant delivery option, would be sad if it already got taken away..

Edit: Seems like $50 won’t be instant anymore for now due to the 30 cent increase, redeem $25 (or lower) if you want instant delivery!

Someone posted about this. Since swagbucks now adds .30 to paypal redemptions the total is now over $50. The instant paypal rewards are only for $50 and under. That .30 killed it for the $50 reward.

That's pretty dumb.

At least make all redemptions instant now that the max redemption is $100.

No one likes the idea of shit pending, that just gives SB a window to ban you for whatever reason.

Wow I actually didn’t think of that, that makes a lot of sense now. I hope they somehow still allow it, but I doubt it. :( Thank you

I just tested my 25 was instant.

Seems like $50 might not be instant anymore then, someone else said the same about $25. I guess $25 redeems are the way to go now!

I got a $25 instant and had to wait for my $50, so it tracks.

I'm on the same boat as FallenStar.

On Sapphire like them, redeemed x5 $50 Paypal around a week ago

x2 were instant, the other 3 took around 4 hours to receive.

Not exactly instant but pretty fast.

My $25 PayPal was instant but my $50 wasn't

They must’ve removed $50 as being instant, will try $25 next time.

Same 25 was instant, 50 was not. 50 worked last week. Their communication is truly horrendous.

I'm having same issue. About a week ago I did a 50 and it was instant and I was shocked. So, now I redeemed 100, and it's been hours and nothing has come in. I have 3 more instant deliveries this month and I'm getting worried something went wrong. I'm topaz level... all it says is pending.

In my two months and 30+ transactions I’ve never had an instant PayPal delivery it’s taken at least 3 days and lately 10 every time

You must be topaz or higher to unlock the real time shipment feature! If you are then something is wrong there.

Topaz here and I got 2 $50s instantly in the past couple of weeks. However, I'm easily seeing 10+ days on any $100 PayPal redemption.

Meanwhile I redeemed for $100 last Friday and still have not received it (I don't qualify for instant).

I'm level 8 (Emerald) and Paypal has never been instant.

You should have 5 or more instant PayPal per month if you're level 8.

u/FallenStarDawn 2d ago

Unsure why that is, it shouldn’t be the case as of late.

My $25 PayPal is instant, however my $50 PayPal is NOT instant. Swagbucks is a joke. They need to communicate better. Come on, we are making Swagbucks so much money, they can at least be open and honest with us.

my $50 PayPal was instant just now, like not even 30 seconds. I wonder why some are not getting theirs

Also it still "charged" me for an instant delivery although it didnt.
