Microsoft Rewards is a program that rewards you for searching, shopping and gaming with Microsoft. It’s a fun and easy way to earn rewards towards free gift cards or you can donate to charity. Each day you can complete activities to earn free points. These daily activities are called the Daily Set.

A Daily Set is a collection of three activities. Completing your first set starts a streak, and streaks unlock bonuses. The activities include one search, a quiz and a daily poll. Once you’ve completed all three, your set is complete, and you’re on your way to a streak. With each streak completed, you earn bonus points. For example, when you complete the daily set activities 3 days in a row, you’ll earn an extra 45 points. 7 days earns you an extra 105 points.

As I have noted above, one of the activities is a quiz. For each question you answer correctly, you earn points. This is where we come in. We have listed the Microsoft Rewards Daily Set quiz answers so you don’t miss any points. These points can be exchanged for gift cards like Walmart or Xbox or donations for charity. If you do not have a Microsoft Rewards account, sign up free here.

January answers can be found here.
