With this expansion, Microsoft Rewards is available in a total of 58 countries. The additional support was first spotted by Microsoft watch Idle Sloth on Twitter. Microsoft has also confirmed the expansion on the official support page. If you are unfamiliar with Microsoft Rewards, the company describes it in the following way: “Earn rewards for yourself or donations to causes of your choice just by searching, shopping, and gaming with Microsoft,” says the Microsoft Rewards webpage. “It’s a free and fun way to reward yourself and make a difference.” Formerly known as Bing Rewards, the company transitioned the service to Microsoft Rewards in 2016. Previously the service allowed users to accumulate points through Bing Searches. Under the new platform, users could gain rewards for other things, such as browsing on Edge. Purchases on the Microsoft Store also gain points.
