How long to purchases stay in my account until I can redeem them on XBone?

Ktvanhorne · Nov 25, 2015

I will be purchasing an XBone during the holidays, but I was interested in some of the Black Friday sales going on. If I purchase a game (download code) from the Xbox store, how long do I have before I buy, sign-in, and download the game onto the XBone?
Do I get a code in an email, or is it just sitting in my purchased queue when I sign in to my new console?

Anyone have any information?

Thanks.

Xbox One code redeemed on wrong account

I redeemed a game code that I received when I purchased Assassins Creed: Origins Deluxe edition on my wrong account and I'm wondering if there's a way I can redeem it again (with proof of purchase of game and code of course).

If you are asking whether you can transfer points from your account to another then unfortunately no, you can however purchase them a prepaid points card if you stay in the same area/region and then send them the code to redeem, that will work.

Once you purchase it, it's yours to download at any time. You don't receive a code. The games are queued to download when you turn on the console and sign into your account.

You can't transfer a Gold membership to any other account. Once redeemed/purchased on one, it stays that way until it runs out. so no Gold from GT1 to GT2.

agreed. I really hope all of those that are completely bashing MS over the XBone really switch/stay with the PS4 and stay away from XBone. I just keep thinking to myself how much better the online community will be without them on xbox live. I'm really
going to enjoy multiplayer without those types.

It's not possible. You would have to create a new account with the correct information. That Issue is by dsign , I mean because of geoffencing Issues.Then you should create an Italian account as long as you are staying in Italy so you can be able to view
Italian Marketplace and redeem Microsoft Points and purchase downloadable Content without any problems...
