    Hi. Do you get reward points if you purchase games from your online store? I thought you used to for some reason but I'm not sure if I've had any for years. You should really get something for online purchases or lower the price in general as the cost for
    digital games is extortionate, even those that are 3 three years old and have successors out.

    rewards for games

    Most offers for earning credits are only for digital purchases made through the Xbox store. There is only 1 offer for receiving credits for purchasing elsewhere.

    Rewards for game purchases?

    Are there any specific offers you're looking for credits from? In order to receive credits, your purchases either have to be eligible for a specific offer on the site at the time, or you need at least 1 star level in order to receive VIP rebates.

    Hello Sassy Dingo,

    You can earn Xbox Live Rewards Credit in two ways:

    1. By finishing the offers located on the MyMissions page at Xbox Live Rewards .

    -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.

    In September 2014 we changed to the MyVIP policy. As a result, payback based off Gamerscore (MyAchievements) was discontinued. Also, as of July 2014, we do not award Credits for Xbox Live Gold renewals. In September 2015, we made some refinements to the
    program. One change that happened was an adjustment of MyVIP purchase thresholds. If you did not reach any MyVIP ranks with your purchases from September 2014-August 31st 2015, you were placed at a default rank. Since you were a zero star member, you did not
    get payback Credits on your purchases. You can check your current MyVIP level/progress at (Xbox Live Rewards).

    Regarding your VIP payback for November when you were promoted, from our FAQ:

    When will my MyVIP Rewards Credits be deposited into my Microsoft account?

    The total Rewards earned will be calculated at the end of each month. Typically you'll receive your MyVIP earnings in your account by the 15th of the following month, though this is subject to the program's current deposit terms.
    Be sure to keep an eye on MyStatement on the MyRewards page to track your progress and watch your Rewards Credits total grow!

    We have not yet calculated that month's MyVIP, so it is too early to see the Credits pending.

    Reward points

    Hello Stubedoo54, My name is oskayra and it will be a pleasure to help you.

    I tell you in advance so that there are no misunderstandings, this is a public forum for user-to-user support. We are users who help other users. We do not work for Microsoft and do not have access to any user accounts.

    That's correct, you do not receive reward points for purchasing game add-ons. You will only receive reward points for purchasing full games.

    In the case of Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, the game was released on March 25, 2023. If you purchased the game before March 25, you may have received reward points. However, if you purchased the game after March 25, you will not receive reward points.

    In the case of Destiny 2 Lightfall, the game will be released on August 24, 2023. If you purchase the game before August 24, you may receive reward points. However, if you purchase the game after August 24, you will not receive reward points.

    If you want to make sure you receive reward points for purchasing a game, you can check the Xbox rewards page before making your purchase. The rewards page will display all games that award reward points.

    Here are some tips to get reward points for purchasing games:

    Buy new and popular games. New, popular games typically award more reward points than older or less popular games.

    Buy games on the Xbox Store. Games purchased from the Xbox Store earn more reward points than games purchased from other stores.

    Buy games with an Xbox Game Pass subscription. Games purchased with an Xbox Game Pass subscription also earn reward points.

    I hope this information is helpful to you.

    Merry christmas.

    Sincerely,
    Oskayra.

    Question about games and credits promotion.

    Hey dude,

    Unfortunately you need to purchase the games through the xbox store, so if you purchases through Gamestop, then it won't count :(

    Take from the Rewards page:

    When you purchase or pre-order any of these landmark games from the Xbox Store, you'll earn up to 6,000 Rewards Credits per title, totalling up to 25,000 Rewards Credits. If you purchased or pre-ordered a game before 27 October 2015, you won't be rewarded
    for that individual purchase, but you WILL be one step closer to collecting all five games for a bonus of 35,000 Rewards Credits — meaning that all together, up to 60,000 Rewards Credits can be yours!*

    Cheers

    Incorrect MyStar spend

    Hello scg06,

    Only digital purchases from the Xbox store are eligible for MyVIP. Console purchases do not increase progress or award MyVIP payback. Furthermore, game consumables and pre-orders are not eligible for Rewards. Also, we only Reward purchases made in the regional
    currency of your Xbox Live Rewards region. Since you registered as a Great Britain region Rewards Member, we are only Rewarding purchases made in GBP.

    I already have the games Physico and some digital. Can you apply the #YOLO reward?

    For help with the rewards program, it's best to post in the Xbox Rewards Questions support forum. In order to qualify the games have to be purchased digitally during the offer period. Any games purchased as a physical disc or purchased before November 1,
    are not eligible.
