MyPoints: A Detailed Guide for New Users

MyPoints is from the same parent company as Swagbucks and InboxDollars. The main difference I have found is the point values are lower than the other two platforms. You are allowed to have a single account with each platform.


You can earn Points in a bunch of ways. For example:
Shopping online, using the site as a starting point
Clicking on emails they send out on behalf of partners
Booking travel with the sites you already trust
Taking surveys
Playing online games


Welcome Bonus for new users: Spend $20 or more (excluding taxes, shipping & handling, and special processing fees) through MyPoints.com website, the Score! browser extension or Bonus Mail emails in the first 30 days of membership to receive a $10 Bonus in your account. $10 Bonus will be awarded in the form of Points deposited into your MyPoints account: $10 Bonus = 1,750 Points. Full terms of the offer here.

There are many other ways you can earn points that can be redeemed for gift cards.

  1. Shop: With the In-Store shopping when you shop at participating local stores and pay with your eligible linked card, you will automatically earn points on qualifying purchases. You can also add items to your shopping list and then; after purchasing in store, submit your receipts to get points for the corresponding items.
  2. Deals: On the top menu of site there is a Deals tab and you can view Deals by category. You can search by category, including electronics, Health and Wellness, Home, Sports & Leisure, Toys & Hobbies.
  3. Coupons: Earn 25 Points for each coupon you redeem at your local grocery store. Plus earn 1 Point per coupon printed. Maximum of 500 coupon prints per month are eligible for Points but there is no limit on the 25 Points per redemption. Points for coupon print activity will post the next business day.
  4. Surveys: You can earn up to 5 points for attempting a survey. The surveys are sorted by Estimated time to complete and they list the number of points you can earn if you qualify.
  5. Watch: Once you start the playlist, it will auto-play until completion or until paused by the user. You must complete this playlist in order to receive the points. It’s usually 5-10 videos.
    Videos are only available on the site via desktop or laptop, but you can earn additional Points for watching videos on your smartphone or tablet with the MyPoints TV app. Available in iOS and Android.
  6. Games: You can play “Cash” games that require a deposit and earn rewards. Cash Competitions is operated by WorldWinner.com. WorldWinner Rewards Points are different from the Points earned in the MyPoints program and may not be used for MyPoints rewards.
