A program that grants points for using Bing search, which users can redeem for gift cards, sweepstakes entries, or charitable donations.
For issues accessing Microsoft Rewards and seeing orders voided, the next steps depend on what is happening with the account and redemptions rather than the Bing app itself.
- Check for common causes of voided/cancelled Rewards orders
Rewards orders can be cancelled or voided for several policy-related reasons:
- Redeeming points in a different region/market than the one the account was created in.
- Attempting to redeem in multiple regions.
- Using a VPN or proxy while redeeming.
- Using a VoIP phone number instead of a mobile or landline for SMS verification.
- The specific reward being out of stock or unavailable.
- No VPN/proxy is active on the iPhone when using Bing/Microsoft Rewards.
- Redemptions are done only in the home region of the Microsoft account.
- A mobile or landline number (not VoIP) is used for verification.
- Verify Rewards order status and details in a browser
Since the mobile app profile is not loading, use a browser:
- Go to the Rewards page and sign in.
- Select Redeem → Order history.
- Check the Status of each order that appears voided.
- For each order, open Order details to see the reward information and, if applicable, the redemption code or link.
- If a confirmation email was not received, use Resend on the Order history page to have it sent again to the primary email on the Microsoft account.
- Confirm that redemptions are allowed on the account
If redemptions are failing or blocked:
- Ensure the phone verification code is entered correctly and that there have not been too many failed attempts (which can require waiting before trying again).
- Make sure the phone number used has not exceeded the allowed number of associated Rewards accounts (maximum of 6 accounts per household on one number).
- Confirm that the phone number is not VoIP.
- If an error indicates traveling or being in another region, wait until back in the home region and ensure no VPN/proxy is enabled.
- Check Rewards balance and dashboard behavior
If the Rewards dashboard or balance looks incorrect when it does load (for example, from a browser):
- Confirm that Give Mode is not enabled, as this can change how the balance appears.
- Make sure the correct Microsoft account is signed in and that browser data is syncing correctly.
- When app issues persist but account works in browser If the Rewards account and orders look correct in a browser but the Bing app on iPhone still cannot load the profile, the problem is likely app-specific rather than account-specific. In that case, use the Rewards features primarily via browser and focus on resolving Rewards/account issues (orders voided, redemptions blocked) as above.
- Contact Microsoft Rewards Support if the account appears incorrectly voided or suspended
If:
- Orders are voided without any of the policy reasons above applying, or
- The account appears suspended or blocked from earning/redeeming despite following all rules,
