What Is the Bing Homepage Quiz?

The Bing Homepage Quiz (also written “Bing home page quiz”) is a daily trivia challenge built around the photo on the Bing.com homepage. Each day Microsoft publishes a new background image — a national park, a wild animal, a historic building or a festival — and the quiz asks three multiple-choice questions about it. Microsoft Rewards members who are signed in earn points for completing it.

How to Play and Earn Microsoft Rewards Points

1. Sign in to Bing.com with the Microsoft account you use for Microsoft Rewards.
2. Open the quiz from the homepage image (Microsoft's Bing homepage guide says it appears when you move the mouse under the search box) or from its card on your Rewards dashboard.
3. Answer the three questions. Want to practise first? Play our quiz on today’s photo above.
4. Check the dashboard: the card is marked complete and the points are added to your balance.

Tips and Tricks

1. Read the photo caption first. All three questions are about the subject of the day’s photo, and its headline and credit (bottom right on Bing.com) name it.
2. Use the information on the homepage. Microsoft says each homepage quiz comes with information about the subject and links to find out more; a minute of reading usually answers all three questions.
3. Check the date. In the U.S. the photo and quiz change at midnight Pacific (3 a.m. Eastern). Late at night you may already be seeing tomorrow’s quiz, and other countries can get a different photo.
4. Play signed in. Points are only credited to the Microsoft account you are signed in with; afterwards check that the card on the Rewards dashboard is marked complete.
5. If a question will not load, clear the cache, try an InPrivate window or another browser, and turn off extensions and VPNs.
6. Warm up here. Our 10-question quiz on the same photo, at the top of this page, covers the facts Bing’s questions usually ask about.

Where to Find the Quiz on Bing

Microsoft's Bing homepage guide gives two ways in: move your mouse into the area under the search box to reveal the daily quiz, or click the headline or credit of the photo. On a phone, or if the homepage hides it, the same quiz is listed as a card on the Microsoft Rewards dashboard.

When Does It Reset?

Bing's image feed for the U.S. market starts each new photo, and with it the new quiz, at 07:00 UTC. During daylight saving time that is:

That is why a player in Hawaii sees “tomorrow's” quiz in the evening. Every set on this page carries the date of the Bing image it belongs to, so match the date and the photo rather than your local day.
