Why don't the digital games you buy in the game store count for your rewards program.

I purchased battlefield one digitally and it's not showing up that I purchased it in my reward.

Windows Digital Games (non-Xbox Live)

Hello,

I was wondering if windows digital games count as Xbox Rewards purchases, or if they considered distinct from the rewards program?

Thank you in advance for all of your help!

Take care and Christ bless!

Over $100 purchases

i I bought over $100 worth of games but didn't even get one reward credit! I don't understand why I didn't. I've spent a lot of money on Xbox store (since I only buy digital games) but only had 27 dollars in credits over the past 5 years. Either the program
is broken, or someone's not doing their job right.

Most of the offers are only for purchasing digital games in the Xbox store, but 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.

This month, Battlefield is eligible for the Rewards Story offer, but you do need to make eligible purchases in the other 2 parts in order to receive credits.

Hello RONNIFIFTY,

You were Credited for that purchase in September with the September MyVIP payback on purchases. This Credit event can be reviewed from your MyStatement on the MyRewards page.

Eggnogga - gamerscore has a little to do with the rewards program. Depending on how many gamerscore points you have, you receive some elevated rewards for various activities. The higher the gamerscore, the higher the add'l beneft. It's a nice addititive
benefit to the larger program.

As to the OP, don't think that FIFA purchases to EA count toward the rewards, it's only if you're buying from Microsoft, so things like digital games, renting or buying movies, etc.

Totally agrea with you, i buyed more digital games because of it and i rather have they deleted microsoft rewards program instead of xbox rewards program.

You can't really have something nice in the microsoft rewards program.

I think when they deleted xbox rewards program, me buying digital products in store is gonna stop also ... like you said why should i nothing really interesting to get out of it...

I think since Phil spencer is gone from XBOX it ain't about the gamer anymore but about the money microsoft can make of it.

I see it going down because of this.

I was even motivated to safe my diamonds to get some nice prices now it's just gonna be extra money to buy in de store ... "woeptie doo"

If you pre-order from the Microsoft store, it will be digital. You can pre-order a physical copy from participating retailers. However, the Microsoft store is more advantageous in my opinion. You can take advantage the Microsoft rewards program when you
buy from the store. Usually a $60 game, rewards you with 5,000 Microsoft points, that you can use for in game purchases, extending your xbox live service, or even buying a Starbucks gift card.
