Next week the Swagbucks Cookout Clash Team Challenge will begin! Here is everything you need to know:
Duration
The event kicks off on Monday, July 6th at 12 AM ET and runs through Sunday, July 12th. Pre-registration is already open as of Friday, July 3rd, so make sure to sign up early!
What is the Cookout Clash Team Challenge?
This is a seven-day team challenge where Swagbucks members are randomly assigned to one of four teams:
- Melon Mayhem
- Corn Crushers
- Hot Dog Heat
- Burger Bandits
I was randomly assigned to the Corn Crushers team this time around, which is absolutely perfect because I love corn on the cob! 🌽
The objective is to earn Team Points by completing various activities on the Swagbucks site and app. The more points your team accumulates, the higher your individual bonus is. The prizes are awarded in the form of SB (Swagbucks) rebates (Swag Ups) for everyone who contributes at least 500 points for their team.
How Does It Work?
- Join Your Team: Click join on the team challenge banner either now during pre-registration or during the event period. You will be automatically placed on a team. You can see your team status on the Team Challenge page. Note: You cannot switch teams once assigned.
- Complete Activities & Earn Points: Complete tasks on Swagbucks to earn points for your team.
- Check Your Progress: Keep an eye on the Team Challenge page to see your team’s standing and your individual point contribution.

Tips for Maximizing Your Earnings
- Daily Engagement: Play the Daily Trivia Challenge and join the Daily Trivia Live games for quick points.
- Easy 500 Points: Getting the 500 minimum points is highly achievable. Simply by playing the Daily Trivia Challenge (50 points) and Daily Trivia Live (75 points) each day, you can cross the 500-point threshold by Thursday. If you miss a few trivia games, you can upload grocery receipts (25 points each, up to 5x), search the web, redeem Swag Codes (5 points each), or complete a quick survey or Tapjoy/Discover offer.
- Double Dip: Make sure you have at least 500 SB in your account to redeem your Swag Up rebate when buying a gift card. The Swag Up also stacks with other promotions, like the monthly 12% off discount on a $25 gift card. That means you can double dip and save even more!
