What makes somethings taxable?

I work some get paid to sites.  Prodege who owns swagbucks and a few others states on their site that discover offers which include games that pay you to download and/or reach a specific level and sign up offers aren't taxable. They also do shop rebates which aren't taxable either similar to ibotta. Surveys and a few other things are taxable.  

 

I expect to get a 1099 for my redemptions which will include all of those things I mentioned. I'm responsible for figuring it out.
