Hi there Doctordrip1346, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

If you redeem an Xbox gift card on your Microsoft account, you will receive a balance that you can use to pay for the V-Bucks you want to purchase.

Once you have redeemed the gift card, you should go to the Microsoft Store to buy the V-Bucks. When you are about to make the payment, you will be asked how you want to pay, and you should choose the balance from your Microsoft account.

For example, if you want to buy 1000 V-Bucks, you should go to the following website:

https://www.xbox.com/games/store/fortnite-1000-v-bucks/c0f5ht9nv86p

Choose your Microsoft account balance as the payment method.

If you want to buy a different amount of V-Bucks and don't know how to find the purchase link, please let me know how many V-Bucks you want, and I can gladly search for the purchase link for you and share it with you.

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

I just bought V Bucks for Fort Nite and the purchase went through and the funds were taken off my gift card but I didnt get my V Bucks!!!

Hey, great question, Jeff! You will want to buy an Xbox Gift Card and give that to them as a gift. They can use the Xbox Gift Card to make purchases for anything, including V-Bucks.

If you buy the V-bucks from the Microsoft store, you will be buying them for your account and, according to the Fortnite V-Bucks FAQ, they are not transferrable or refundable.

While it may be possible to make the online purchase as a Digital Game Gift, where you include your nephew's account as the recipient, they will receive the redemption code immediately upon purchase.

In that case, your best option is to buy the Xbox Gift Card so you can have something to give them and also ensure that the game currency isn't accidentally associated with your account and unable to transfer.

Hello MasadanPrendergast! I'm Claus, an Independent Microsoft Community Consultant for Xbox! Glad to be able to help you!

V-Bucks can only be purchased on the Microsoft Store using a credit/debit card or PayPal account.

If you want to get V-Bucks through other methods, then you might have to purchase a gift card.
