Ultimate Cancled But Want To Add Gold

If you add a prepaid gold subscription while you have Ultimate, it will extend your subscription and be upgraded to Ultimate at a different conversion rate. A 12 month subscription would convert to 4 months of Ultimate. If you want all 12 months of just
gold, you would want to wait for your Ultimate subscription to end and then add it.

If you buy standard Game Pass, it won't have any affect if you also add Gold.

If you buy Game Pass Ultimate, it will convert your Gold to Ultimate as well. You would want to add the Gold first. That way you'll get the full 12 months of Gold plus 1 month of Ultimate for a total of 13 months of Ultimate. If you add the Gold after buying Ultimate, it will convert for a shorter amount of time and you won't get the full 12 months.

Yes and no. You can only add up to 36 months at a time, so you would want to add a little bit less than 36 months of gold first. But yes, if you add standard gold first and then purchase Ultimate, the remaining gold will be converted to Ultimate as well.

Here is the breakdown of how conversion works. We will use 1 months ultimate as an example.

If you have ultimate active for 1 month for example:

If you add 12 months of gold while ultimate is active, the conversion is:

12 months gold = 4 months ultimate

so 4 months ultimate + 1 prior month ultimate = 5 months ultimate

_____________________________________

If you have only 12 months gold active:

Then if you add 1 month ultimate, the conversion is:

12 months gold = 12 months ultimate

12 months ultimate + 1 month ultimate = 13 months ultimate.

Do you understand? If you want a better conversion rate, then you need gold first and then add 1 month ultimate to make everything else ultimate but if you add gold later, it gives you less months.

If he has Game Pass Ultimate, adding Gold will convert it to Ultimate since Ultimate includes Gold. If he wants to go back to just standard Gold, you would need to either cancel the Ultimate subscription or wait for it to completely expire, and then add Gold in order to get just Gold.
