Epic Games recently announced a new reward program for its users. The program, known as Epic Rewards, offers players a 5% bonus on every eligible purchase.
This is the latest in a series of moves by Epic Games to improve its popularity against the dominant PC gaming platform. Steam. In the past, Epic Games has provided free games to its users. It has also taken a more generous approach to revenue sharing with developers than Steam. Epic Games has now revealed its cash-back program, Epic Rewards.
Earn 5% Bonus on Epic Games
To earn Epic Rewards, players must sign in to their Epic Games account and accept the latest version of the company’s license agreement. Once these requirements are met, players will automatically earn 5% of the value on all eligible purchases made on the Epic Games Store. Eligible purchases include games, add-ons, and virtual currency.
However, you should note that not all games are eligible for cash back. The official announcement mentions Fortnite’s V-Bucks as an example of a virtual currency eligible for cashback. But we haven’t yet seen a full list of games or add-ons that will support it.
The bonus will be added to the player’s bonus balance within two weeks of the original purchase. They can then be used to make future purchases on the Epic Games Store. Users can combine the bonus with other coupons as well. However, players should note that it expires after 25 months. So if players do not use their points before they expire, they will lose.
The Epic Rewards program is another way for Epic Games to attract and retain users. By offering players a way to earn money from their purchases, Epic Games makes shopping on their platform more attractive. This could help Epic Games bridge the gap with Steam and become a more dominant force in the PC gaming market.
