Although you are a frequent gamer in BGMI, it is quintessential to increase your merit points as well. The merit point is a scale that helps to find the match based on your performance. Keep in mind, the merit point may be increased or decreased based on your gameplay.

In Battlegrounds Mobile India, each player will be provided with 100 merit points. This is to ensure fair and clean gameplay among the player whoever plays the game. The creators can’t manage and monitor players throughout the course of the game. Hence it helps to predict whether the player follows the game rule and plays without losing the spirit of the game.

If the merit points in your profile have been reduced, it is because of the following factors.

Team-up with a hacker – No penalty for the 1st time. But, if the streak of team-up continues within 7 days, then each subsequent offense will result in a loss of 15 Merit points.
Killing own teammates in Squad (Detected by System) – 15 Merit loss for the 1st time followed by 30 and 60 merit point loss for the further report.
Killing own teammates in Squad (Reported by Squad) – 20 Merit loss for the 1st time followed by 30 and 60 merit point loss for the further report.
Using any kind of Hacks (Deducted by system or reported by players) – Permanent account ban or 60 merit loss.
