Buy Minecraft for a friend (Philippines to Malaysia)

Hi there BookishLief, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

It is not possible to gift digital games from the Microsoft Store to players in a different country than yours. When using the gifting feature, a code is sent to your friend with the region of your country. In order to be able to redeem this code, your friend must use a code from their own region, as codes have regional restrictions.

Please keep in mind that in this public forum, we are just fellow players like you, trying to help other players with our best intentions.

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

I am from Philippines. Using my partner's card from Malaysia.

Still, they wont take the money to change my gamertag.

Even after making the card, region, and store region match.

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Steeb1423, unfortunately Xbox services are not yet available in Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/regions

Sadly no.

But reading through certain pages and stuff around the site, It may be because that my country isn't supported.

My country is set to Philippines.

So the only 2 options for me to do now is to:

A. Get an achievement

B. Wait for my country to be supported.

I live in the philippines and I really want to buy XBLA games especially minecraft and Trials Evolution.

So I cannot register my card for a US account.

Unfortunately not, games bought from the Microsoft store are region locked; therefore, you only have the right to use a region of the store that corresponds to Malaysia.

And since Malaysia is not supported yet, I am afraid the only option left is to buy the discs version of the games.
