I am not sure if this is widely known or not, so I thought I would share in case anyone else would benefit. I was browsing through the google play store today, and happened to notice that you can convert your "play points" to "play credit".

The benefit, as far as I can tell, is that allows you to convert the game currency to actual Google play credits which can be used across more digital products, like videos, tv etc...

The conversion is 100 'play points' to $1 in 'play credits'.

The real benefit is that if you are a gold member (those of you who took advantage of the google storage deal a while ago), you can earn a weekly bonus of play points by clicking a button . The amount of points you earn varies from week to week, and I had been ignoring it, but now that I know I can convert my play points to play credits, they just became a whole lot more interesting , lol.

To redeem, click my link I provided then scroll down until you see the "Google Play Credit" option. Redemption starts at 100 points .
Enjoy!

Pretty sure you have always been able to do this since they introduced the program back in 2019

The use play points for play credit has been a thing since Google started the play credit thing. I've been converting them exclusively to Play Credit for about two years now.

It's also not hard to maintain gold status as long as you do the weekly claim. I've gotten 100 points a few time last year.

It was (very welcome) news to me! I do not do any mobile gaming at all, and had always stopped paying attention to their points giveaways and my points balance. Now that I know I can convert them, that makes them a whole lot more useful.

That may very well be the case. It was strange, I had a notification that popped up in my play app that said something about converting the points. I assumed it was a new thing, and the limited searching I did , did not turn up much information.

LOL some of us (like me) were too slow to realize that. Hell, I didn't even know play points were a thing until months after I signed up for Google One smh

Just learned about this for the first time through your post. Managed to convert a couple dollars worth of Google Play Points that I had no intention of using into Google Play Credits

WOW. I didn't even know a thing about these points. I have 32, but have no idea how. How do I earn google points? (that i can covert to $$$, since Google Rewards hasn't sent me survey in many many months and i've lost about $20 in those rewards b/c I didn't use them in time. oops.)

This wasn't news to me... The gem I found was Google Survey Rewards. They pay you to answer questions about search results and places that Google has tracked you passing by.

I use Google Survey to buy Crypto Tab Cloud Boost that I run on an old phone connected to wifi. Mining Bitcoin a few bucks a month, nothing crazy, but free into $ is good for me. PM if you want a ref link for Crypto Tab.

Is it possible to use my Google Rewards dollars to buy Google products (Nest, Stadia, etc) or Google services (Drive cloud storage, etc)?

I know that you can use the google play credit to buy games on Stadia, but you have to have enough credit balance to cover the cost of the entire game. Otherwise, it does not let you use it. I do not think the play credits extend to "physical" products, i.e. non-digital.
