Answer
The Welcome Bonus is a $10 SwagUp on the SwagUp page. It activates on a single purchase of at least $25 in an eligible category. The purchase SB typically posts within 32 days, and the $10 posts a few days after that.
When this applies
This fits when the question is the $10 Welcome Bonus. Other SwagUps are covered in What is a SwagUp? Online shop credit in general is in How does Shop & Earn work?
What to do
- Find the $10 Welcome Bonus on the SwagUp page.
- On the merchant’s shop page, confirm the category is eligible for SB. A merchant can change categories.
- Spend at least $25 in one purchase in an eligible category.
- Wait for the purchase SB. It typically posts within 32 days. The $10 bonus posts a few days after that credit.
If that didn't work
These purchases do not qualify for the Welcome Bonus:
- MyGiftCardsPlus
- Amazon
- eBay
- The Home Depot
- Flat-rate cash back
- Travel
- Any exclusion in that merchant’s terms
