Could I use my Visa Debit card (Vietinbank) to buy game and DLC on Xbox Store?

Dear everybody.

I am living in Vietnam and want to buy some Backwardcompability Games, DLCs on Xbox Store, but I don't know if I add my Debit card, do I be ban or not? Because Xbox Live does not support for Vietnam yet.

Thank you for reading.

:)

Gold subscription does not except prepaid cards.edit

Not sure how in 2016, you don't use debit or credit cards but that's just me.

Anyway, could someone else confirm if using prepaid VISAs work or not? You could always go to gamestop or bestbuy, use your prepaid VISA card on a subscription xbox live card. That should work. Perhaps order a digital code on amazon with your prepaid VISA. I'm pretty sure they accept it.Click to expand...

Yeah it's legit. Though more and more companies are starting to accept them. Should be able to buy a pre-paid subscription card from a store and use it though, that won't require a credit/debit card on file.

Hi there,

Thanks for your post! If you're using a Visa Debit gift card, the store may have some issues processing the order. These payment methods are unable to be used with subscriptions and in addition, will not behave well in the normal store. You could go and
purchase a Microsoft Account currency gift card with your Visa Debit gift card and use that to purchase the game and DLC you're attempting to buy.

I hope this information helps.

I use my Visa debit card all the time OP. As long as it is an active debit card with your bank (open account, good expiration date on the card, ect) then yes you can use it to purchase items and memberships for Xbox LIVE. My Visa Debit card is currently
my only linked payment method and it has never failed me.

@WPAK - Option 6 on that link is talking about the Windows Phone Store, not XBL Store, just a heads up

While the Xbox Billing system is not set up to specifically accept Debit cards, they can work for purchases. I often use my Visa Debit for purchases on Xbox.

Although if a Debit card does not work then there is not much anyone can do, the officially supported methods of payment are Visa, Mastercard, Amex and Paypal.

If you are haveing trouble with a Debit card you could try linking that to a Paypal account and then the Paypal to the Xbox account. Or just use Pre Paid Codes.
