    Hello everyone,

    Here are the current facts relating to Origin Points:

    • Origin Points are a visual representation of your gaming prowess on Origin.
    • Similar to achievements, Origin Points can't be used as a currency.
    • Origin Points are not the same as Bioware Points; Bioware Points are used to purchase DLC for older Bioware titles.

I don't see the point in the Origin point system, after all it seems that I can't use the points that I've amassed.
Is it just a way for Origin to get it's hands on your credit card?
As much as I play Battlefield 4 I can't seem to be getting any "rewards", I can't seem to be getting anywhere? 😕mileytongue:

Hi @Anthonyfranken

Origin Points is still in development, nothing we know what the future will be of it. But stay tuned - it must be something cool!

    4 years later and there is still no point to the points.  Origin hasn't changed since launch.  EA blows donkey.

      So I just realized I went forward a couple years reading these posts. Here's the deal. It's been years since anything has happened with Origin Points and I highly doubt there will be anything in the years to come. So, that said, DONT worry about it. There is no reason to be upset about points that have no meaning. Just find games you enjoy, play them, and have fun. Doing anything else is quite... Pointless. :eahigh_file:

      The number of Origin points below the user name in the Origin launcher has to be the most useless and irrelevant information/stat a program ever displayed.

      It's like if the launcher want's to troll us.

      Ubi at least has a progression with their XP system and you can even get rebate coupons.

    Many years have gone by - surely, by now, there must be something we can actually use these points for?  Right?  Please tell me yes...
