  1. Buying Xbox vouchers foor someone in a different region.


    I live in Sweden. My sister lives in England. She wants to buy my son an xbox gift voucher for his birthday.

    I read that she hs to buy in the currency it is going to be spent in but this website doesn't give the option of purchasing gift cards in a different currency.

    The retailers in Sweden do not sell to people without a Swedish personal number so she can't buy direct from an online store.

    Solutions?

    :)

    Buying Xbox vouchers foor someone in a different region.

    Easiest solution would be for your sister to send you the money & then you could buy a gift card in your local currency.

    Pretty sure you used to be able to by gift cards for people in different countries/regions but I can't find the link for it at the moment.

    I'll have another look later & post back if I can find anything.

    cant redeem code

    There could be a few reasons why you're having trouble redeeming your Xbox vouchers. Here are a few things you can try:

    1. Make sure you're entering the voucher code correctly. Codes are often case-sensitive and may contain letters, numbers, or both. Be sure to double-check that you're entering the code exactly as it appears on the voucher.
    2. Check the expiration date of the voucher. Some vouchers may have a limited time period in which they can be used, and attempting to redeem an expired voucher may result in an error.
    3. Check to see if the voucher is intended for use in a specific region or country. Some vouchers may only be redeemable in certain regions, and attempting to redeem a voucher that was intended for use in a different region may result in an error.
    4. Make sure the voucher hasn't already been used. If the voucher has already been redeemed, it will not work again.
    5. Check for any outstanding balance on your Microsoft account. If you have an outstanding balance on your account, you may not be able to redeem additional vouchers until the balance is paid off.
    If none of these steps help, you may want to try contacting Xbox customer support for assistance. They should be able to help you troubleshoot the issue and determine why you're unable to redeem the voucher.

    Buying for gift vouchers for someone in another country.

    Hey there AdoredManager74,

    She would need to make the purchase at a local retailer in Sweden to make that happen. There isn't a way to purchase currency across regions like that.

    What about " Region code"

    It means the region code for your console and game are different. Which means you need to buy the proper region Game to play in your Xbox, or buy a new Xbox, with the proper region.

    Can I get my microsoft gift voucher in Uk changed to australia as bought by accident

    On the Microsoft Store your payment method's region has to match the region you're shopping in. My best advice is to purchase it from a different website that provides vouchers for different regions.

    This website compares online store pricing for gift cards from many different regions: https://gg.deals/gift-cards/xbox-gift-cards/

    Note: This is a non-Microsoft website. The page appears to be providing accurate, safe information. Watch out for ads on the site that may advertise products frequently classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it.

    Thanks,
    Kyle
