Microsoft Rewards Quiz Answers
Latest Bing Homepage Quiz set: October 6, 2026 — 3 verified questions: Which Chinese province is home to Zhangye National Geopark? · Which mineral causes much of the Danxia landform’s red hue? · What natural forces helped shape Danxia landform ridges? See them on the Bing Homepage Quiz page, with a 10-question quiz on today's Bing image.
Microsoft's daily image quiz gets its own page with the verified answers and the previous seven days. Each of the other Microsoft Rewards quizzes has its own answers page too: Supersonic, Turbocharge, Warpspeed, Lightspeed, News and Entertainment.
What Is Bing Quiz?
Bing Quiz is the everyday name for the trivia quizzes that Microsoft runs on Bing.com and on the Microsoft Rewards dashboard. The best known is the Bing Homepage Quiz: every day Bing shows a new background photo — a national park, an animal, a landmark, a festival — and a short multiple-choice quiz asks about the place or story behind that image. Other formats come and go, including fast speed rounds, a weekly news quiz, an entertainment quiz and the “This or That” poll-style quiz.
People play Bing quizzes for two reasons: to learn something new in a couple of minutes, and to earn Microsoft Rewards points that can be exchanged for gift cards, Xbox content or charity donations. Because the official quizzes change daily and only appear for signed-in players in supported countries, many players look for two things: a daily quiz they can play anywhere, and the verified answers to the official set. BingQuiz.net provides both.
The daily quiz above is our own, not copied from Microsoft: it is drafted with the help of AI from reference sources, normally Wikipedia’s featured content for the day, and every question comes with three options and a short “Did you know?” explanation, with a link to its source when it comes from Wikipedia. A new set of ten questions goes live every day. Our editorial policy explains how it is made.
How It Works
Playing the daily quiz on BingQuiz.net
- Press Start at the top of this page.
- Read each question and choose A, B or C. The correct answer turns green and a fact explains it.
- After ten questions you get your score. Come back tomorrow for a completely new set.
Playing Microsoft's official quizzes
The official quizzes live on Bing.com and the Microsoft Rewards dashboard, and they only pay points when you are signed in with your Microsoft account. The best known is the three-question quiz about the daily Bing photo: our Bing Homepage Quiz page shows where to find it, when it resets and the verified answers for each day.
Every Microsoft Rewards Quiz at a Glance
| Quiz | Questions | Typical points | Resets | Answers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bing Homepage Quiz | 3 | 10–30 | Daily | Today's answers |
| Supersonic Quiz | 3 (timed) | 30–45 | Daily | Supersonic answers |
| Turbocharge Quiz | 3 (timed) | 30–45 | Daily | Turbocharge answers |
| Warpspeed Quiz | 3 (timed) | 30–45 | Daily | Warpspeed answers |

| Entertainment Quiz | 5–10 | 10–50 | Weekly | Entertainment answers |
| This or That | 10 | 10–50 | Weekly | This or That answers |
Points and availability vary by account level and country, and Microsoft rotates the cards, so you will not see every quiz every day. Each quiz page in the table keeps the latest verified set for that format.
How to Earn More Microsoft Rewards Points
- Play every day. Daily quizzes cannot be made up later, so a missed day is lost points.
- Stack the quizzes. The Homepage Quiz, a speed quiz and the News Quiz together are worth far more than any single card.
- Stay signed in. Quizzes played while signed out give no points, even if you answer everything correctly.
- Check your region. Your Bing region should match your Microsoft Rewards country, or some cards will not appear.
- Keep your streak. Completing your daily set several days in a row can unlock streak bonuses on the Rewards dashboard.
- Bookmark this page. One tab gives you today's trivia and every verified answer.
