It all seriousness, 6750 points will get you a $5 Coles gift card.
So 100 points is worth 7.4 cents
Who the heck uses points for Coles gift cards, that's just silly. 4500 points will get you $5 of Microsoft/Xbox credit if you go for the monthly auto claim option. I usually get $5 to $10 a month. There are many ways to collect points, including game or movie purchases.
This can be used as a discount off all hardware or game, app and movies.
What do you do with the cards?
So 11.1c worth ?
Um… I also prefer Coles or JB voucher. Most of the good Microsoft hardware deals are not on Microsoft Web sites. XBox credits, well, you get further into Microsoft's eco system.
Search on Bing is annoying and have those reward points going back into Microsoft just doesn't feel right. Some of the XBox rewards involve playing games I wouldn't normally play. Honestly, I just don't bother with that anymore. I am the boss, not Microsoft.
Buy MS movies just to collect some reward points? Nah, with a variety of devices I use and supporting many camps, it just seem silly to lock myself further into Microsoft.
I get the Coles egiftcards. Not a gamer + only occasionally interested in the other retailers.

It's only a deal if you don't value your own time.
Lol.
Unfortunately, it appears that your Microsoft Rewards account has been suspended
Oh no. Probably for claiming bing rewards when they weren't available in Oz.
Keep us posted
i have about 29000 points so far. use bing as my search engine. Free money without much effort.
Yes but you waste a lot of time using inferior search engine.
Bing is the best for certain adult entertainment
More bing for ya buck ey ;)
certain adult entertainment
what about uncertain adult entertainment?
@SBOB: After turning off bing safe search you seem to get porn results coming up for the most innocent search queries so there is plenty of uncertain adult entertainment to be found.
Have you even tried it
Bing is all I use on mobile and laptop. The points add up quickly and in my view, the results are just as good as Google. Never had any issues finding what I'm searching for.
@[Deactivated]: The brief moments I've used it sucks for:
Maps/reviews;
Reverse image searches;
general searches where Google shows the relevant Wikipedia page in first results.
Enough to put me off..
@capslock janitor: Google is also pretty bad for reverse image searches. Yandex was pretty good but lately it hasn't found sites where the image is on.
@Pneen: google is best i've used for Reverse and most consistent, albeit being hit and miss rarely.
the only other i've used was Bing (which I like is inbuilt to Win10 now..but results suck)
haven't used Yandex search.
I switched to bing some time ago and I find refreshing.
Also, you are in the "Google" bubble that's why you think the big G is better?

12k points here as well.
Kinda ignorant of a comment there.
It's my experience also, maybe lots of us are ignorant.
It could also possibly be that I'm resisting change. Now that I've learned that they're willing to bribe me to use bing, I'm willing to give it another go and will try really hard to not be judgmental this time. Everyone has thier price. I think a lot of people's price would be far higher than mine though.
common terms bing is ok. Anything specific, it doesnt take long to open google.
29000 point would be equivalent to ? How long you used bing to accumulate this much points ?
Therre's a bonus 150 points for doing the Halloween task thing as well… basically 3 searches and a movie quiz. Done in a few minutes.
Yes I do it every day these 3 tasks and bing about 50-150 points a day
I usually rent 3 new movies a month on my Xbox which also gives me 2500 points
The punchcards are quick points, seconds not minutes though. You don't have to actually have to complete the quiz, just click the link.
Daily set ones take more time because need to actually complete it.
This takes 'you are the product' to a whole new level.
I use my bing points to rent movies online from MS. I used to use bing points to buy music but they killed that service.
Thanks OP!
Sitting on 51k points. Anybody got any good stuff to buy on the Microsoft store? If not I may just cash out $35 of JB hi-fi cards and get some headphones or a record
Wait for xmas sale for some cheap games, they have great specials on all the time, record yes but $35 for headphones wont be that good.
Thx worked great.
Thanks - completely forgot about Microsoft rewards!
I've set up 3 profiles in chrome with 3 different email addresses and use automated bing searches.
Part of my morning routine is having brekkie and run the searches and click through the bing reward searches in each chrome profile and it takes roughly about 5 minutes to complete the whole process.
I've got about 60 bucks so far since april which i plan to use at jbhifi when the ps5 is out.
if you have a computer running 24/7, you could even use task scheduler to run a script to do the bing searches for you. i havent tried this yet but theres a few sites that shows you how its done, then its super effortless.
Tempted to start a 4th or 5th profile.
PITA though when you can't compete your daily set because it just won't work right and breaks your streak…
You can set up the three accounts as family members and transfer a certain amount per month between them (5000 from memory). Handy when your just short of cashing out a gift card.
If you have a problem doing the daily set, you can email them and they are pretty helpful, if you mention your streak broke they will reinstate it for you.
wow, i wish i knew this. what if you forget one day?
or do they only resume your streak if you have technical issues?
@PreSsieGuY: I don't think they'd do it if you just forget, I had an issue where it said the poll had already closed, so I contacted them and they reinstated it.
Anybody else using this app for Microsoft points?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nkdevelopment.…
Link not found :/
I've used the app for years,
Press one button and within less than a minute it auto searches 70 times and you get the 162 points
Can't really understand how's this a deal - but it's got 300+ likes.
Honestly. I clicked on the link and saw it was something I'd rejected when Microsoft threw it in my face.
I thought I was the cheapest person, but this has already cost me more than it's worth just in searching here for why people think it's worth it.
thanks, i'm sitting on nearly 40k points… should probably get 3 months ultimate or something… lol
I dont get out of bed for more than 20 cents
Thanks, Got it.
Easy done cheers
you guys are true ozbargainers :P 7 centssss
For those like myself collecting but not spending rewards, this might be a good option to put points to good use? E.g. Mission Australia, OzHarvest, Lifeline, WWF, Red Cross
I got a message just now about Give with Bing which converts points into charity donations of your choice. Can't find a direct public link but this might work from your profile. Details here
Banner currently says: You're a part of something big. As of September 2020, Microsoft Rewards has donated $5,945,689.
Don't get how it's a deal… not worth doing
Claimed the code. Thanks a tonne OP :)
Another question for you OP; what are the points for?
