Question

When I use Bing on my Android device without logging in, my Microsoft Rewards points increase by 3 each time I refresh a page. Why does this happen? Also, it increases by 1 each time you are logged in.Screenshot_20260515-162438.png

Answer 1

Microsoft Rewards points are only officially earned when activities are performed while signed in to a Microsoft account that is enrolled in Microsoft Rewards, and only within the daily limits and regional rules of the program.

The documentation describes that:

• A Microsoft account is required to participate in Microsoft Rewards.
• Points are earned for activities such as searching with Bing (for example, in Microsoft Edge or via mobile apps) when signed in.
• Daily limits and terms apply and vary by country/region.

The behavior described (points increasing when not logged in and just refreshing a page) is not documented as a supported or intended way to earn points. Documented earning scenarios always assume being signed in to a Microsoft account. Any apparent point changes seen while not signed in are likely due to how the app or site is displaying cached or delayed account data, or how it syncs once sign-in occurs, rather than actual point accrual without an account.

To ensure points are correctly earned and tracked, activities should be done while signed in to the Microsoft account that is enrolled in Microsoft Rewards, and the official earning rules and limits should be followed.
