I bought a digital Xbox gift card for my son and it needed up in Microsoft acct. if I can’t...

Hi there! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Xbox gift card/ No worries, let me help you sort this out.

It's important to note that this is a public user-to-user community forum, and none of us here work for Microsoft.

According to the official Xbox website: "After a code has been redeemed to a Microsoft account, the content can’t be transferred to the correct account."

Since we are referring to Microsoft credits, I'm afraid that you can only use the credits using the account where you have accidentally redeemed the Xbox gift card.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

my son has an xbox & i was trying to buy him VC in NBA2K23- i bought a gift card & activated it to my acct instead if his- i know i can't transfer the $, but can i buy VC as a gift for him & it will load to his account? thank you !!!

Unfortunately per https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/subscriptions-billing/buy-games-apps/gifting-digital-xbox-game-help in game currency (such as VC) is not able to be gifted.

I bought prepaid gift card added to my Microsoft acct. Balance shows up, but will not allow to purchase vbucks package? Txs

Hi there, you can buy anything with the credit that you have in your balance even v-vucks. But yiu gonna need the amount obviously.

I bought it from xbox as a gift card for my son

Had a gift code for minecraft pc version and applied it to my microsoft acct - i didnt know it that when you play the game it uses the xbox launcher for it and that is linked to an xbox profile that my son uses that already has minecraft on it, so need to get the game refunded etc and used on my other microsoft acct

Unfortunately nothing is transferable between accounts and once the code has already been redeemed it's no longer eligible for refund.
