How does the Xbox Live Tenure works?

EhsanReznov · Jun 2, 2014

Lets say I get 3 months gold membership and let it expire after a while I get another 3 and again let it expire and again get 3 months and another 3 months (3*4=12). Now I have been a gold member for 1 year but not without letting it expire. Will it
count as 1 year?

xbl tenure

Hi,

Microsoft has changed how tenure is calculated. See below:

Tenure is based on the cumulative amount of Xbox LIVE Gold time a user has. While you do not lose tenure when you go Silver, Xbox LIVE Silver time does not accrue tenure. You will see your tenure increase
only when the year of Xbox LIVE Gold time has finished.

For your first year of Xbox LIVE Gold you will see a '0' and increase to '1' year of tenure when that year is up! For example, if you've had Xbox LIVE Gold for 3 years and 6 months, you'll see a tenure of '3' next to your Gamertag.

It used to be your tenure reset if at any time you were silver for 14 days or more

It goes by yearly on how long you've had XBL gold. If you had a full year of gold, it will count towards a year. It goes by how many months you are subbed to in gold, so 3 months at a time to get to 12 will still get you your year tenure.
