How do origin points work

[caftyblake]

Hello, EA!

I was wonderind how the Origin points system works, do OPs (Origin Points) allow you to get special promotions on products? Do they allow you to get discounts on buying new games? I would like to know what OPs do.

Thanks, Have a nice day!

Hi there,

I can confirm that it's exactly as stated by @DarkBanishing :-)

But do let me know if you've got any other questions!

Kind regards,

No special promotions or discounts can be obtained with origin points. Perhaps in the future there might be something special you can do with origin points, but for now, they are only used to see how proficient you are in games that support these points.

To @Straatford87:

Can you please verify the above for @caftyblake?

Thanks.

Thanks for your answer, but (not to be rude) I would like to know from someone that works at EA, Thanks for the help though!

So it defeats it's own purpose!? Would make much more sense to apply it towards the point system for purchasing DLC as Mass effect and DA already have items with a point system for purchasing DLC!
