Microsoft Rewards continues to be one of the most interesting advantages of the Xbox ecosystem. Although it no longer offers figures as high as it did a few years ago, it’s still possible to earn around 10,000 points per month, which translates to around $10 in Xbox balance without spending money.

With the changes applied until 2026, the system relies more than ever on daily consistency and combined use of Xbox, Game Pass, and Bing. Not all options are available in all regions, but the potential is still there.

Microsoft Rewards and Xbox: How to Earn Points Every Month

The bulk of the points come from very simple tasks that are repeated daily, weekly, and monthly:

• Bing searches from PC and mobile, especially when reaching level 2 of Rewards. Just this can account for a large part of the monthly goal.

• Daily set from the Microsoft Rewards panel, with bonuses for streaks.

• Playing Xbox Game Pass titles for at least 15 minutes a day, earning constant points throughout the month.

• Xbox app bonuses, such as playing on console, PC, or completing simple activities from your mobile device.

• Weekly bonuses for playing several days in a row on console and PC, with additional benefits for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers.

• Monthly challenges, such as playing several different Game Pass titles to unlock extra rewards.

Additionally, the Refer & Earn system allows you to earn extra points by inviting other users, although availability depends on the country.

How to Maintain Consistency and Not Lose Points in Microsoft Rewards

• One of the most common mistakes with Microsoft Rewards is focusing only on large tasks and neglecting daily consistency. The system rewards regularity much more than punctual actions, and that’s where most users lose hundreds (or thousands) of points per month without realizing it.

Monthly Points Retention Table

• Total monthly: between 9,500 and 11,000 points, depending on region and subscription.

With a basic routine and without real effort, Microsoft Rewards remains a very effective way to generate balance for games, DLC, or subscriptions on Xbox, especially for those who already use Game Pass habitually.
