how many microsoft points do i need to change my Gamertag

Hello HunterSeat, Microsoft has retired the Microsoft points name and has replaced it entirely with the new Microsoft and Xbox currency cards that local retailers sell. Yes you can change your gamertag with currency cards(or money on account).

I’m not sure if you can use points to change a Gamertag. First time is free, second time is $10.

Here is how you do so depending on device.

Hi there,

If you asking how many Microsoft Reward (formerly Bing Reward) points you need, you need to redeem about 15,000 points to be able to get $15 in Xbox Gift Cards to put on your account to purchase the name change. You'll need to make sure you can account for
any local sales tax that may be charged.

The amount of points needed will vary depending on if there are any redemption specials going on at the time you want to redeem your points.

You're all saying I need 800 MPS to change my gamertag , but How Can I purchase Microsoft Points ??

I live in Iran and there's no way for me to Purchase Microsoft Points ( I don't have access to any Credit Card )

It's not possible to delete gamertags. If you wanted to change the gamertag two times you would need to pay 1,600 Microsoft Points (800 Microsoft Points for each gamertag change). So first you'd change the gamertag of SrTommy to something else, and then
you'd be able to change SrTommy1981 to SrTommy. It's not possible to do this without paying as gamertags cannot be deleted.
