Redeeming MyPoints ?

[mjh8955]

How exactly do I navigate and either order something through MyPoints to earn reward points, or redeem MyPoints? When I get to the order screen does it automatically keep track that I am coming from MyPoints or do I have to plug in account information? I have been very hesitant to order anything to earn points since I don't know exactly how it works. I can't find a "how to" spot on MyPoints.

You have to go through a mypoints link or a mypoints email to be able to get those points! I've personally had pretty good luck getting all the points I deserve when I purchase something through mypoints, but others have not. It is VERY important to save your confirmation email, and if you go through a mypoints email to order - save that mypoints email as well.
When you make your order, make sure you use the same email address information - I think that helps track it as well. Good luck!!

I have over 2,000 points and haven't bought a thing-just clicking on their links, etc. It's taken a few months and in a few more months, I'll get a Rainforest Cafe gift card. It's not alot, but I don't mind clicking on those email links every morning just to get a nice, free treat for my kids..

Also, just an FYI in case you didn't know. There is a disrewards board, with lots of very friendly folks who just talk about rewards programs. Please feel free to join us!http://www.disboards.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=30&forumid=35

I'm another lover of MyPoints. I began aabout 6 months ago and have almost $2500. It is fun to see how far along I will get. I did have one issue with the credits coming to me after a purchase, but the staff was very quick in their response.

I also reccomend using a "throw-away" email account. I use my gmail, and this has helped since I KNOW you get a lot of spam from the ads, ect.

Good luck to you!
