Microsoft Rewards: How To Claim 2000+ Bonus Points This August 2

It's that time again! We're big fans of the Microsoft Rewards program here at Pure Xbox, which allows you to complete tasks in order to earn redeemable points which can be spent on gift cards, donations and much more.

August 2022's "Monthly Bonus Round" challenge has just begun, and by satisfying a few easy requirements by August 15th, you can top up your account by another 2010 points (around £2 / $2).

You'll find this punch card on the Microsoft Rewards app for console, and here's what you'll need to do:

  • Complete a Microsoft Bing search on five separate days
  • Complete 3 "daily sets" (accessible via Microsoft Bing)
  • Earn 3 achievements in Xbox One / Series X / Series S games
  • Complete a weekly set
  • Complete the poll for 10 extra points

In addition, there's currently a Summer Spotlight promotion on the Xbox dashboard where if you buy $50 worth of specific games, you'll be rewarded with some extra Microsoft Rewards points — something to keep in mind, maybe!

If you're new to the Microsoft Rewards program, this is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of obtaining points - you can also earn hundreds per-day by completing Bing searches on PC and mobile, earning Achievements in Xbox games, finding Weekly Treasures, pre-ordering specific games and much more.

Note: Not available in all regions. Full regional details have not been provided by Microsoft.
