Microsoft Rewards Million Dollar Sweepstakes Details
Microsoft Rewards plans to select the winner for the contest on January 21, 2025, at about noon Pacific Time. From there, lucky Microsoft winners will be notified using the contact info they provided to the contest. The million dollar winner will be wired the cash to a bank account directly, while the $10,000 winners will instead receive a prepaid card with the amount on it. The contest is open to users in the US, Puerto Rico, Canada, UK, France, and Germany, and users must have reached the “age of majority” in their region to enter. Entrants can only use a single account to participate, and are responsible for paying all taxes and fees on the prize money, should they win.
Microsoft Rewards doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. Microsoft Rewards has been integrated with Xbox, allowing users there to earn points, in addition to anything they earn via the app or through using Bing. Many fans have reserved their points specifically for getting gift cards or other prizes, so it’s good to know that there’s a way to enter this competition without spending anything.
