Buying Rocket League credits with Xbox Gift Cards

I have a problem too today i bought a 10 dollar gift card and i wanted to buy rocket league credits when i went to the store to buy it wont let me buy with xbox balance how can i fix that

hi there,

unfortunately there is no way to gift credits for the xbox version of the game, the only way to do this would be to trade items between accounts, however you can purchase gift cards either online or at local stores to which you could either give your son
the physical gift card to redeem or pass him on the code to then buy credits for rocket league, hope this helps.

This is horrible. My mother in law gave us a $100 gift card for Christmas to split equally between our 4 kids. We thought we could surely just divvy it out to each of their accounts that are under our family umbrella. They really want to buy the credit points for their rocket league accounts. I am learning it is not possible for us to move this money to their accounts. I cannot buy them each their own gift cards with the money to put on their accounts. I can't even gift buy the rocket league credits. What the???? Seriously. It is money and we are trying to use it. Why in the world can't we use it to buy something from your store no matter what it is?

Hey, I went back to the gas station (Five-star) and got the code for the gift-card and bought 500 credits for rocket league, one of the best games one Xbox

Hi RadonX3,

In order to redeem your Microsoft gift card, first make sure you’re signed in with the Microsoft account you want to redeem the code with.

From a web browser, go to redeem.microsoft.com or click here: Redeem a code

1. Sign in, enter the 25-character code, then follow the prompts. Don’t worry about hyphens, the system takes care of those for you.
   

Note The following letters and numbers never appear in Xbox digital codes: A, E, I, L, O, S, U, 0, 1, and 5.

Once the credit is in your account, you can purchase Rocket League points with your Currency in the Microsoft Store.

Things to keep in mind:

• Many digital codes from different publishers look similar, and some Xbox games include codes meant to be used at the game publisher’s website instead of through Xbox. Make sure that the code you’re trying to redeem is one supported by Xbox.
  
• You need to be signed in to the Microsoft account for the person who is trying to use the code. If the code was purchased through a different account (for instance, as a gift), be sure to sign in using the account for the person redeeming the code (the one that received the gift).
  
• Some codes can’t be redeemed if your Microsoft account is suspended or has a balance due. Resolve all account suspensions and unpaid balances by going to the Services & subscription section of your account before redeeming the code.
  
• You can only use some digital codes in specific regions. Confirm that your account region matches the region where you purchased the digital code.
