Xiaomi actively encourages users to be active in the brand ecosystem โ for purchases, reviews, participation in testing, and even for the usual use of devices. But where to see the accumulated Xiaomi points if they do not appear in the usual sections? This article will reveal all the official and hidden ways of checking balance, including nuances for different regions and types of accounts.
Xiaomi points (or Mi Points) can be spent on discounts, gift cards, exclusive merchandise, or even warranty renewals. However, the scoring and display system changes often โ which worked in 2022 may not be available today. We tested current methods on MIUI 14/15, HyperOS and web versions of services to provide accurate instructions without outdated links.
1. Official application Mi Account: the main method
The most reliable method of checking points is through the Mi Account app (formerly Mi Community), which is pre-installed on all Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO smartphones with MIUI or HyperOS. If the app is removed, it can be downloaded from Google Play or AppGallery (for regions without Google).
Step instructions:
- ๐ฑ Open the Mi Account app (a icon with a personโs silhouette on an orange background).
- ๐ Go to the Profile tab (bottom of the screen).
- ๐ฐ Click on the Balla icon or Mi Points (may be under the avatar or under the "My Achievements" section").
- ๐ Here you will see the current balance, history of charges and available ways of spending.
Important: If there is no point section, check your account region. Xiaomi points are not available in all countries (for example, in Russia the system works differently due to sanctions), also make sure that your account is tied to the same region where the device was purchased.

If the Mi Account app isnโt updated, clear the cache in your phoneโs settings: Settings โ Apps โ Application Management โ Mi Account โ Storage โ Clear the cache.
2. Check points through Mi Community (web version)
An alternative is the Mi Community website, which syncs with your Mi Account, which is suitable if you donโt have access to your smartphone or the app isnโt working properly.
How to check:
- Go to the Mi Community website (select your region in the address: /global/, /ru/ etc.).
- Sign in with your Mi Account.
- Click on the profile avatar in the upper right corner.
- In the drop-down menu, select My Points or My Points.
The page will show:
- ๐ Current balance (total scores).
- ๐ History of transactions (for which points were awarded/written).
- ๐ Available rewards (discounts, coupons, gifts).
Why are Mi Community and Mi Account scores different?
3.Shopping points: Mi Rewards and Mi Store
If you bought Xiaomi devices from the official store, the points could be accrued in the Mi Rewards program, which runs parallel to Mi Points and often confuses users.
Where to look:
- ๐ In the Mi Store app (if available in your area): open the Account section โ Mi Rewards.
- ๐ On the site mi.com after authorization: Personal account โ My bonuses.
- ๐ง In emails from Xiaomi after purchase (theme may contain "Your Mi Rewards").
Mi Rewards points cannot be combined with Mi Points, which are two different loyalty programs, but in some countries (e.g. China) they are converted into the common Mi Credit currency.

4. Hidden methods: codes and engineering menus
For advanced users, there are undocumented methods for checking points through service commands, which do not work on all devices and can be changed with MIUI/HyperOS updates, but sometimes help when standard methods are not available.
Ways:
- ๐ USSD-Code: Dial in the phone application ##6484## (It is used in several Redmi models and POCO s MIUI 12-14).
- ๐ง Engineering menu: Go to Settings โ The phone. โ Version. MIUI, Tap 7 times according to version, then return to Settings โ Additionally. โ EngineerMode โ Account.
- ๐ป ADB-PC: Adb shell am start -n com.xiaomi.account/.ui.AccountMainActivity After execution, open the Rewards section in the menu that appears.
โ ๏ธ Note: Use of the engineering menu or ADB This can cause a warranty reset if you change your critical settings. Do not edit the settings unless you are sure of their purpose!
5. Regional features: Russia, Europe, Asia
Xiaomiโs points system is highly dependent on the region of the account, for example, in Russia after 2022, the official loyalty program is suspended, but points can be displayed in:
- ๐ท๐บ Application Mi Home (section Profile) โ Balls).
- ๐๏ธ Partner stores (for example, Svyaznoy or M. Video), if the purchase was tied to the Mi Account).
In Europe and Asia, there are full-fledged programs:
| Region | Title of the programme | Where to check | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| ๐ช๐บ Europe | Mi Points | Mi Account, Mi Community | Points are awarded for reviews, testing of beta versions of MIUI |
| ๐ฎ๐ณ India | Mi Rewards + Mi Community Points | Mi Store, Mi Community | Two separate systems, not summed up |
| ๐จ๐ณ China | Mi Credit | Appendix (Mi Mall) | You can convert to yuan for purchases |
| ๐บ๐ธ USA | Mi Points (limited) | Only through Mi Community. | Low rates of accrual, little spending opportunity |
How do you change your account region? You can only change it once every 30 days through the Mi Account web version, but changing your region will reset all the points you have accumulated, you can't transfer them!
