    Buying games with Gift cards


    Hi, I'm trying to buy a game using the gift cards that I've redeemed, but I only see my credit card option under payment. How to I purchase games with the money (redeemed from gift cards) in my microsoft account?

    :)

    Buying games with Gift cards

    The website is not set up to use currency on your account. When you purchase on the console it will default the payment to the currency and any extra that is needed will be taken from the credit card.

    Game pass

    Game pass cards are not gift cards. So no, you'll need an Xbox Gift card to buy in game items. :)

    How do I spend my Microsoft balance on my Xbox?

    You can't buy a gift card with funds in your Microsoft account balance. That would be essentially buying a gift card with a gift card. You would need to buy a game or other content in the store and use your account balance as the payment method.

    gift card radioshack/cashstart

    Hey there Ed! Are you getting any errors when you try to buy the game? It looks like the Cashstar Gift Card is a Gift Card to RadioShack. If that is the case, you won't be able to use a RadioShack gift card to buy content off of Xbox Live.
