Rewards are one of several ways to reduce what you pay.
THE OTHERS
Longer billing cycles, which usually cost less per month Promotional codes at order time Multi-year domain registrations, which fix the price Choosing the plan that fits rather than one that is too large Cleaning up rather than upgrading, when disk usage is the issue
HOW THEY INTERACT
Take the discount first. A promotional code reduces the amount paid, which may reduce rewards earned, but the discount is always worth more than the rewards forgone.
Rewards redeemed as credit reduce the amount paid, and amounts settled with credit typically do not themselves earn. Rewards do not compound.
THE ORDER OF PRIORITY
- Choose the right plan.
- Choose the billing cycle that suits.
- Apply any promotional code.
- Redeem rewards against the resulting invoice.
WHAT NOT TO DO
Skip a discount to protect earning. The arithmetic never favours it.
