    Pre-orders aren't eligible for rewards, but are apart of MyMissions???


    Hello,

    Can you please elaborate/explain on something for me that I still find confusing: why are pre-orders not eligible for MyRewards, or do not count towards MyVIP, but there are MyMissions that are specific to pre-orders?

    Where is the benefit in either of these?

    Pre-orders paid for through the Xbox store for game releases are made in full, correct? So is this to say that the pre-order doesn't count torwards increasing MyVIP or MyRewards, but may go towards a MyMission?

    Is the only time game purchases count towards MyRewards is after a game release?

    :)

    MyVIP Rewards

    Hello Azn Mans,

    Only Xbox Live Rewards members are eligible for Xbox Live Rewards. Since you are not a member, you are not eligible for any Xbox Live Rewards. On top of that, this purchase would not have awarded any Credits since the only offer that awards Credits for pre-orders
    is the Games on Demand offer, which requires three eligible pre-orders to complete.

    Missing Rewards points

    Hello Diamond Descent,

    We have not had a 10,000 Rewards Credits offer for pre-orders, with the exception of our September Gears of War pre-order offer. You may be thinking of our 15,000 Credit MicrosoftStore.com pre-order offer that we had up until this year. However, that offer
    requires the purchase of a physical pre-order copy off of MicrosoftStore.com. Since your pre-orders were digital, they were not eligible for that offer.

    The only thing pre-orders are currently eligible for is the Games on Demand offer. Pre-orders are not eligible for MyVIP, as referenced in our FAQ.

    Yes the only time a game purchase counts toward MyVip is when it is released (unless explicitly stated otherwise). The answer is "because that is how the program is set-up" and is in the terms & conditions. You will not receive a satisfactory response.

    However, it's worth noting that the 15,000 reward for the Games on Demand Punchcard offers more rewards per title than stars 1-4 of MyVip. The only people who "lose out" are people who have 5 stars and are gold getting 10% back, other than that you get more
    when you pre-order through the promotion.

    Hello brownt21390,

    Pre-orders are not eligible for MyVIP, which is why there is an offer created to cover those purchases. Since pre-orders are not eligible for MyVIP, you can still participate in the Games on Demand offer to have those purchases awarded. Most purchases are
    eligible for Rewards in some form or another. Keep in mind that the only way to receive Credits is either by completing the offers located on the MyMissions page, or by purchasing MyVIP eligible products. Offers will take precedence over MyVIP payback. For
    example, a purchase of For Honor this month for March's Warrior Rewards offer will only award Credits from the offer, not for the offer
    and MyVIP.

    Credits not being deposit as stated!

    Hello kil23mc,

    Pre-orders are not eligible for MyVIP. You received Credits for your purchase of Gears of War 4 due to a special offer we ran in September. That offer was unique in that it also rewarded purchases made previously to the offers release. Normally, pre-orders
    are not eligible for MyVIP, and are only Rewarded via special offers, located on the MyMissions page.

    Xbox Rewards - I Don't get any points

    Hello FBMamedeS,

    You can earn Xbox Live Rewards Credit in two ways:

    1. By finishing the offers located on the MyMissions page at
    https://rewards.xbox.com/mymissions/
    .

    -or-

    2. For non-offer purchases, you can earn Credits by earning a one star MyVIP level through purchasing at least $300 USD or regional equivalent of eligible content. After you receive your first star you will begin to earn a percentage of your eligible purchases
    back as payback Rewards Credit. Pre-orders, in-game consumables, and subscriptions are not eligible for MyVIP.

    The pre-order offer you refer to is the Games on Demand offer. However, that offer requires the pre-order purchase of three eligible titles during the offer period in order to complete the offer and receive the Credits. Since you only had 1 out of 3 purchases,
    you did not complete that offer.

    Hello Paterson07,

    You can earn Xbox Live Rewards Credit in two ways:

    1. By finishing the offers located on the MyMissions page at
    https://rewards.xbox.com/mymissions/
    .

    -or-

    2. For non-offer purchases, you can earn Credits by earning a one star MyVIP level through purchasing at least $300 USD or regional equivalent of eligible content. After you receive your first star you will begin to earn a percentage of your eligible purchases
    back as MyVIP payback Rewards Credit. Pre-orders, in-game consumables, and subscriptions are not eligible for MyVIP.

    Looking over your purchases, the overwhelming majority of your recent purchases were game consumables and pre-orders. These MyVIP eligibility requirements was mentioned in the previous post that you reference above.
