Change Xbox Series X Preorder to Use Microsoft Account Balance

KE Spurs Fan · Oct 18, 2020

I have a pre-order for Xbox Series X through Microsoft Store online. I have enough Microsoft Account balance to pay for it, but can't change my payment from credit card to use Microsoft Account balance.

If I were to change my payment to a credit card that gets declined, would it then use my Microsoft Account balance to pay for the Xbox Series X pre-order?

I was able to preorder for release date the expansion card with ms account balance. I am curious if it will or can be applied to my series x preorder without changing the order cause I have more.. definitely wouldn't if it changed what day I receive it...
does microsoft ever answer in these things? I'm very curious about this..

Yes. The funds are added to your Microsoft account balance and can be used on the 360, One, Series S/X, microsoftstore.com, the Microsoft Store app.

I was trying to buy an Xbox Series X Console, not a game nor subscription.

The entire purchase was around $ 543 and I had more than enough Microsoft Account Balance and I specifically chose Microsoft Account Balance as they payment method.

As stated above, funds from Xbox gift cards are added to your Microsoft account balance. They can be used to buy games/subscriptions on the 360, One, Series S/X, Windows, and you can use them in the Microsoft Store.
