How to activate points on Megafon and why they are needed

All Big Three mobile operators have their own loyalty program. It encourages subscribers to more actively use communication services, increase expenses and, as a result, receive pleasant rewards: discounts, free options and packages. A distinctive feature of the MegaFon-Bonus program is the ability to exchange points for money on your phone account.

How to connect Megafon Bonus

First, let's briefly note what this program is. The subscriber gets the opportunity to accumulate bonuses for used communication services - connected options, calls, SMS and Internet. Units can be spent on rewards, which will be described below, and save on expenses.

Let's look at what needs to be done to connect Megafon bonus on your phone and become a participant in the program; there are 3 ways to do this:

• Open your personal account section “Spend bonuses”;

• Dial *105*5# or *115#
• Send a message with the numbers 5010 to number 5010.

Any subscriber of the operator can receive points, excluding corporate clients and legal entities, as well as excluding users of special TPs with Internet access.

System Description

The MegaFon Bonus bonus system was created to increase subscriber loyalty. Moreover, such programs work for almost all Russian operators. Thanks to this system, MegaFon makes its subscribers more loyal, and the subscribers themselves receive pleasant gifts. The program works on the principle of accumulating bonus points with their subsequent exchange for any rewards.

Bonus points act as an internal “currency” in the system. In order to earn one point, you need to spend 30 rubles on communication services

Please note that it is the funds spent that are counted, not the funds credited to the account. Bonuses are also awarded for equipment purchases at MegaFon communication stores.

Moreover, it is branded devices sold under their own brand that are taken into account - these are modems, tablets, smart cameras, photo frames and smartphones. For every 30 rubles, the subscriber is awarded 1 point.

The third method of accumulating points is irregular - sometimes MegaFon launches promotions that provide for the accrual of an increased number of bonus units when making purchases in its stores.

How to accumulate points

You can receive rewards for:

• Perfect calls;
• Sent SMS;
• Internet MB spent;
• Communication devices purchased at the operator's showroom;
• A significant date, for example, the subscriber’s birthday.

Units are not awarded for roaming expenses, “Change tone”, “Mobile commerce” and “Save number” options, as well as for entertainment subscriptions. Accrual occurs monthly, at the beginning of the calendar month. One bonus is equal to thirty rubles spent from a mobile phone account.

Now let's discuss how to activate bonuses on Megafon in order to take advantage of the selected options.

Exchange bonuses for a smartphone, router and other devices

Beeline communication stores regularly hold special promotions that allow you to get a discount or buy promotional mobile products by making partial or full payment with accumulated bonuses

With such a payment system, it is important to warn the seller about paying with points before issuing a check and be prepared for the fact that the amount of bonuses debited from the account will definitely be a multiple of 100

If the cost of the product is 960 rubles and you have 980 points accumulated in your account, to make a purchase you will have to pay an additional 60 rubles in cash or by card, since only 900 points will be available for debiting from the bonus account.
