    Microsoft Rewards should not be redeemed while using a VPN. Rewards redemption must be done in the same region where the Microsoft account was signed up, and using a VPN or proxy can prevent redemption or cause orders to be cancelled.

    Try this:

    1. Turn off the VPN and any proxy.
    2. Make sure redemption is being attempted in the same country/region as the Microsoft account.
    3. If phone verification appears, use a mobile phone or landline number, not a VoIP number.
    4. If using QR verification, try redeeming in a web browser and use the Verify with the Bing app option. The QR option does not appear inside the Bing app.
    5. If QR verification is failing, update the browser and operating system, clear browser cache and cookies, and try a different browser, device, or network.
    6. If the issue continues, contact Microsoft Rewards Support: Contact us

    If Microsoft Rewards is not available in the current region, using a VPN is not a supported workaround.
