A streak or day-based bonus can fail to register if:

  1. The daily set was not completed on time.
  2. A VPN was used.
  3. The device was using a different time zone.
  4. The activity was done while signed in to a different Microsoft account.

For search earning issues, Microsoft also lists these common causes:

  • Give Mode is on.
  • The browser or app data is not syncing correctly with the Rewards database.
  • The daily PC/mobile search counter has already been maxed out.
  • Searches were detected as automated.
  • Activity appears to be coming from outside the current market.

Since the second day did not mark even after trying again, the next step is to submit a request to Microsoft Rewards Support so the account activity can be reviewed:

  • Use the Rewards support page: https://rewards.bing.com/support
  • Sign in with the same Microsoft account used for Rewards.
  • Include that the first day counted in the Bing mobile app, but the second day did not register, which blocked the 500-point bonus.
