I am trying to buy a digital Xbox gift card but it says this "Could not add the requested...

okay, so recently I got a 25 dollar gift card that is a visa. I go onto xbox.com and I want to buy halo reach for my xbox one( I am trying to buy the 360 version and hope that it will show up on the ready to install section in games and apps on my xbox one).
I add my gift card info and all that and I go to purchase it and whenever I do that it says that the purchase could not be completed at this time. could someone please help me???

I tried this, but it does not let me select to redeem.

It says add payment type or select gift card. So I try gift card and it says enter 25 digit code. There is no code. I go back to enter payment type and it says PayPal or Credit/Debit

what I did was instead of trying use the card send yourself and digital gift card and redeem it. it will add the money to your Microsoft account and you can buy what you want without having to split the payment

That would be a good idea, instead of gifting a digital game to someone you could just gift a digital gift card to them. That way if they change their mind about a game on their wishlist. Then they will just have the money and they could buy whatever
they wanted.

Alternatively, you could use the gift feature instead of sending her a digital card to 'gift' her the game or add-on she wants. More details on the gifting feature here: https://www.windowscentral.com/xbox-one-gifting
