Xbox gamers urged to claim easy free store credit while they can

Xbox fans have sure-fire ways of racking up their Xbox Rewards point balance for store credit, and you’d be wise to learn them.

Store credit vouchers are your best bet of getting Xbox games at a discounted price, and you’ll definitely need them later this year when the price of Xbox titles gets increased.

As far as we’re aware, this won’t impact things like Xbox Game Pass, so you can still play titles like Doom: The Dark Ages at a reasonable price.

Game Pass may not be changing its pricing for now, but when it comes to actually owning games, you will soon unfortunately need to pay more, so it’s best to learn the most efficient way to rack up Xbox points now to exchange them for store credit when you need it most.

Fortunately, Xbox players have worked it down to a science, with several steps you can take to get the most bang for your buck.

“It took me a solid month to grind 13k points with Ultimate Game Pass,” began one player’s account on Reddit.

“Doing searches every day can guarantee 300 points not including any other way, also just playing games and filling out the weekly and monthly tab on your profile and waiting till the end of the month to claim it also is a meta.”

There’s a small catch to this as another comment swooped in to say those who live in the UK can only earn 150 points for their search challenges, not 300.

Either way though, you’ll still earn a fair amount regardless of where you are in the world, and if you own a PC as well as a console, you can earn points from playing both systems.

It’s good to familiarise yourself with what methods are at your disposal, as pretty soon you’ll want all the help you can get when it comes to buying the latest Xbox games.
