Stacking Gold Cards

RainDancer327 · May 11, 2015

My Xbox Live Gold runs out in a month. If I buy another gold card from a store, will it add to the gold I have? I don't want to redeem the code and something happen where I lose the gold that i bought

Pay twice

Xbox will allow you to purchase Gold multiple times. This is a feature called stacking. If you buy 1 Month Gold for $9.99, and then you again buy 1 Month Gold for $9.99, you will have paid a total of $19.98, and that will cover two months of Gold. You
can stack up to 36 months at a time. This also applies to store-bought prepaid cards, and a combination of paid subscriptions and prepaid cards. This does NOT, however, apply to those 48-hour trials and such that you receive with games.

Xbox one day one packaging.

Yes it does not include a gold card but the day one 12 month gold card is separate.

Gold memberships will always stack. People tend to confuse Gold trials which do not stack. Also you cannot stack a trial onto a gold account with an active membership. Again you can always add more time to your membership. Everytime I run across a deal
I tend to buy it and currently have 3 years of time.

Have an awesome day

Hey there! The prepaid cards do stack, with one exception. If you try to stack the 48 hour codes, those will not stack as they are simply a trial of Gold, not actual time.

Your 4 cards should stack perfectly fine to get the one year of Xbox Live Gold.

If the codes you have are trials then those will not stack and cannot be added to a gold subscription. Only full gold cards will stack.

No you can't stack gold cards on top of an active xgu

Having an active xgu membership means you can stack only xgu cards

There is no conversion rate for xgu cards only gold to xgu

Yes. Paid Gold Subscriptions do stack. I have done so myself plenty of times before. Trial cards do not stack on top of trials and you can't stack a trial on a paid gold subscription.
