I wanted to share Microsoft Rewards, because it's one of those platforms that I personally find pretty easy to use.
I've been using it for a while, and I like it because most of the things you do to earn points can be incorporated into your normal internet usage. Microsoft itself lists Bing searches, daily activities/quizzes, mobile activities, and other opportunities as ways to earn points.
APP/PLATFORM: Microsoft Rewards
Available through the website, Bing, Edge, and mobile apps, depending on your region.
Referral: https://rewards.bing.com/welcome?rh=TEDZHfnXlsQ&ref=rafsrchae
If you sign up through my referral link, you can earn up to 1,320 bonus points by completing the Welcome Quest.

There are several ways to earn Microsoft Rewards points. Keep in mind that the available activities, point values, and limits can vary depending on your country/region and can change over time.
Use Bing as your search engine and you can earn Rewards points from eligible searches.
There is a daily limit, so you can't search endlessly for unlimited points.
Personally, this is one of my favorite ways to earn because I already search the internet regularly anyway.
Instead of using Google for every random question, I sometimes use Bing and get Rewards points while I'm at it.
On your Rewards dashboard, you'll find the Daily Set.
These are usually simple activities such as quizzes or other daily tasks. Complete them and you'll receive the corresponding points.
This is probably one of the easiest things to do because it only takes a few minutes.
Microsoft Rewards also has activities that contribute to your daily streaks.
Depending on what's currently available on your account, these can include:
The exact requirements can change, so check your own Rewards dashboard for the current activities.
The basic idea is simple: keep completing your daily activities and maintain your streak.
Scroll down to the Earn tab and look for Quests.
These are additional tasks that give you extra points after completion.
Some of them are incredibly simple. You click the activity, complete what it asks you to do, and the points are added once Microsoft registers the task as completed.
At the bottom of the Earn tab, you'll usually find more opportunities under Keep Earning.
These are smaller tasks that can give you additional points.
The amount varies depending on the activity, but I've seen tasks worth only a few points up to around 10–15 points.
They're small, but they add up.
Microsoft Rewards also has different membership levels with additional benefits.
Check the table on your Rewards dashboard to see what benefits are currently available to you.
The exact benefits can vary by region, but higher levels can provide things such as additional earning opportunities, redemption savings, and exclusive offers.
This is where I want to set realistic expectations.
Microsoft Rewards is not a get-rich-quick method.
Your earning potential depends on your country, available activities, daily limits, promotions, and how consistently you use the program.
Microsoft also states that Rewards points don't have cash value; they're used toward available rewards.
For me, the appeal isn't making a huge amount of money.
It's more like:
>
Over time, those points can turn into actual rewards.
There is no normal cash payout like PayPal or a bank transfer.
Instead, you redeem your points for whatever rewards are currently available in your region.
These can include things like:
Microsoft specifically notes that the redemption catalog varies by country/region, so don't expect the exact same rewards to be available everywhere.
For example, you may see a $5 gift card or another reward with a similar value depending on your market.
The exact points required also vary by reward and region.
Sometimes there are promotions where certain rewards require fewer points, so it's worth checking the Redeem page from time to time.
The Rewards catalog isn't always permanent.
Some gift cards may become unavailable or go out of stock, and Microsoft says that some gift cards aren't always available through Rewards.
Also, don't use a VPN or try to manipulate your location to access rewards from another country. Microsoft says Rewards activities and redemptions are region-specific and that using VPNs/proxies or earning across multiple countries can result in account issues.
So I'd recommend simply using the program normally in your own region.
After you redeem a reward, you can find the reward details through your Microsoft Rewards order history. Depending on the reward, you'll be able to access the redemption code or link there, and Microsoft can also resend the confirmation email.
So you don't have to worry about manually tracking every redemption.
For me, it's because it fits naturally into my routine.
I don't particularly enjoy spending 20–30 minutes answering surveys just to discover that I don't qualify halfway through.
With Microsoft Rewards, I can:
That's basically it.
I don't consider it a serious income source. I see it more as a small reward for things I'm already doing online.
And that's why I personally prefer it over survey platforms.
If you're looking for a way to make hundreds of dollars every month, this probably isn't for you.
But if you're looking for something low-effort that can slowly accumulate points toward gift cards and other rewards, I think it's worth trying.
The best part for me is that I don't have to completely change my routine to use it.
I'm already searching the internet.
I'm already checking things online.
So I might as well get some points from it.
Just keep in mind that Microsoft can change the available activities, earning limits, rewards, and redemption requirements at any time.

Hi everyone,
I'm a bit confused about how the daily reset works.
My daily set refreshes every day at 2:00 PM UTC, but my daily streak doesn't reset until 3:00 PM UTC. Because of this, the two timers are out of sync by one hour.
This has actually caused me to lose my streak a few times. Sometimes I complete the daily set between 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM UTC because I assume the new daily has already started and that I can do it once per day. However, since the streak doesn't reset until 3:00 PM UTC, that completion still counts for the previous streak day, and I end up missing the next one without realizing it.
Is this intentional, or is it a bug? It feels confusing that the daily set and the daily streak don't reset at the same time.
Has anyone else experienced this?
