Microsoft wants to pay you to use its Windows 10 browser Edge

Rebranded Microsoft Rewards will now pay you to dump Google's Chrome for its browser - but only if you make Bing your default search engine

Microsoft has a new browser. It launched with Windows 10 and it's called Edge. The company says it's faster, more battery efficient and all-round better than Chrome or Firefox. You can even draw on websites with a stylus. Trouble is, not very many people are using it. So now Microsoft's trying to bribe you to switch.

The newly rebranded Microsoft Rewards - formerly Bing Rewards, which paid people for using Bing as their search engine (another product Microsoft says is better than a Google product but that very few people actually use) - will now pay you for using Edge, shopping at the Microsoft store, or using Bing.
