Gift Card for Xbox, movies and Microsoft

Xbox gift cards and Microsoft gift cards are essentially the same thing. They'll both add funds to your Microsoft account balance that can be used to purchase games for Xbox or Windows or movies/TV through Microsoft. So yes, after you purchase Halo for PC, you could then buy something else for your console or buy a movie or something like that.

Hi Ammon,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your question about the gift cards. Microsoft gift cards and Xbox gift cards are for both Microsoft and Xbox.

This is directly from the
Microsoft gift card:

With a Microsoft Gift Card, give the freedom to pick the gift they want. It can be used to buy devices, games, software, apps, movies, and more. There are no fees or expiration dates to worry about. This digital gift code is good for purchases
at Microsoft Store online, on Windows, and on Xbox. It cannot be used for purchases at physical Microsoft Stores.

This is directly from the
Xbox gift card:

With an Xbox Gift Card, give the freedom to pick the gift they want. It can be used to buy the hottest new Xbox full game downloads, apps, movies, TV shows, devices, and more. There are no fees or expiration dates to worry about. This digital
gift code is good for purchases at Microsoft Store online, on Windows, and on Xbox. It cannot be used for purchases at physical Microsoft Stores.

If you are purchasing devices like Xbox console, surface pro they are limited to being used for them.

If you will be mainly using these on an Xbox console, then the Xbox gift card is perfect.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi Sen

Their purpose is the same, although if you play on PC it's much better to get a Microsoft gift card in your case.

Sadly gift cards can not be used to buy xbox 360 games. You can use gift cards to buy xbox games, tv shows and movies through microsoft tv and movies. Really wish there was a way to combine the 360 marketplace with the xbox store. The only other way
you could play fable instead of buying the disc would be to sign up for xbox gamepass.

I was thinking to do the same thing, but how can I do it? (I play Roblox's Microsoft app and have 5k points)
