Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Kathy

Additional information is needed, please answer the following questions to assist you properly:

What are you trying to purchase inside Minecraft?
Is this happening with Bedrock or Java ?
If it's Bedrock, is this happening on Xbox, PC, phone or another system?

In the meantime, please double check if your account region is set to Canada
https://account.microsoft.com/profile

And also check if your preferred billing address and payment method are registered to make purchases in Canada

https://account.microsoft.com/billing/addresses

I highly doubt its a card and region compatibility problem because my virtual visa card that im using which is Paymaya is having a promo for 3 months xbox pc gamepass in my region, which wouldnt be possible if they didnt support Paymaya and my region for xbox pc gamepass

I'm having a similar problem

| just recently got a new visa debit card because my old one got damaged. when i go to manage my payment options it won't let me delete my old card or add my new one plus my new one was valid at on 12/2011

Excuse me? Visa cards work internationally, as other users I've found about have confirmed with this with Xbox One.

I know my Visa card isn't restricted by Region, as I frequently use it with my Japanese-Region-Locked consoles and for other purchases.

Or are you saying that Microsoft adds further Region Lock on even the ability to buy their services? I find this very hard to believe.

This is VERY confusing.

Because they will lose a customer. I have a PS3 and I won't buy gold if I can't get a gamertag change. I am willing to pay, but because of this region lock I can't put my credit card or use microsoft points.

I already have to buy everything like themes and gamerpics on an alternate, but this account means a lot to me. I'm surprised that no one can force a region change on my account. I know they can change my gamertag because they do it if there is violations
so I won't buy gold until this is resolved.
