How do I use Minecoins on Nintendo Switch or IPad?

Hello, Gary B. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

Please make sure you're using the exact same Microsoft account you used to redeem the code on the iPad and Nintendo Switch.

If you're using the same account, please try the following:

A. Restart the game.
B. Restart your device.

Besides that, could you review if Minecoins appear in the Microsoft account order history with the status “completed”?

Furthermore, please refrain from sharing personal information, including email addresses, the code itself, order numbers, etc. As community users, we are not able to enter or check your account information, and everything we comment can be seen by anyone on the internet.

I hope you find this answer helpful to your inquiry. However, I'll remain attentive to any other one you may have.

Regards,

Arturo.

Hello Francine Idowu,

Thank you for your contribution to the Microsoft community.

We totally understand that you want to get your Minecoins on your Nintendo Switch account. Have you tried restarting your Nintendo Switch console to see if the Minecoins appear? If not, please try that first.



If the Minecoins still do not appear, please ensure that you have linked your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch account. You can do this by following these steps:



1. Open Minecraft on your Nintendo Switch

2. Select "Sign In" from the main menu

3. Select "Sign in with a Microsoft Account"

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to link your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch account



If you have already linked your accounts and the Minecoins still do not appear, please contact Microsoft support for further assistance. They will be able to help you troubleshoot the issue and ensure that your Minecoins are properly linked to your Nintendo Switch account.
