    Using gift cards and a credit card for a purchase


    I have 2 gift cards on my account which I want to use before my actual credit card because the credit card should only pay for the tax on the purchase. How do I tell the system to do this?

    :)

    How to pay the rest

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    good evening

    To pay the rest of a purchase with a credit card and a gift card, you will need to make the purchase using the gift card first. Here is a general guide on how to do this:

    Add the items you want to purchase to your shopping cart.

    At checkout, select the gift card as your payment method.

    Enter the gift card information and apply it to your purchase.

    If the gift card does not cover the full amount of the purchase, you will be prompted to pay the remainder using another payment method. Select the credit card as the payment method and enter the credit card information.

    Review your order and confirm the payment.

    If you are unable to see the option to pay the rest with a credit card, it is possible that the gift card does not have enough balance to cover the full amount of the purchase. In this case, you may need to add another gift card or use a different payment method to pay the remainder.

    If you are still having trouble with this process, it may be helpful to contact the retailer or the gift card issuer for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional guidance and help troubleshoot the issue.

    Buying xbox live?

    The prepaid gift cards can only be used to purchase content for the Xbox. Gold can only be purchased with a credit card/Paypal or by purchasing a prepaid gold card.

    You can't use a gift card to purchase a subscription without a credit card/debit card entered as a secondary payment option

    Splitting a payment

    There is not a way to split payment between two credit cards. what you can do is purchase a xbox gift card with one of the credit cards put that xbox gift card onto the account then you would be able to split the payment between the gift card balance choose
    this first as the first option that you want to use to pay then it will ask you how you want to pay the difference and then you can use the other credit card.
