    I just got a $15 Xbox card. I tried to buy a 1 month of Xbox live gold,It keeps saying I need valid payment option. Do you have to have a credit card or is it a technical error?

    Get Gold for free this weekend.

    Honestly, if they are going to give out Gold for free then they should give it out for like a whole 7 days at least. Giving people Gold for one weekend is like... You don't really get to see enough to know if you want to purchase it. True, some people can go onto Xbox Live and be like.. "WOAH I GOT T PLAY TODAY for free!" then go on and purchase Xbox Live. For me, I wanted to see how all the lobbies work in all the games I play and so on so it's not like I'm planning to spend the weekend upfront of my Xbox 24/7 testing out Gold features. (I say this from an earlier perspective, I have owned Gold for a very long time and really enjoy it. I'm just saying that this was my mindset PRIOR to purchasing gold.)

    Xbox Live Gold Purchase

    Gold can only be purchased via credit card/Paypal or by purchasing a prepaid gold card at a retailer

  6. The only way you have ever been able to purchase an Xbox Live Gold subscription is either with a credit card/paypal or with prepaid Xbox Live Gold subscription cards. That's it. It has not changed. Account currency or points were never an option.

    Payment

    Hi

    Unfortunately it is not possible to use and Xbox gift card balance to purchase an Xbox Live Gold Subscription you will need to either purchase an Xbox Live Gold membership card/voucher or register another payment method to your account such as a debit/credit
    card or papal to purchase Xbox Live Gold.

    gift card-xbox live gold

    Hello PerkyTortoise80,

    Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. In the past, customers were not able to complete a purchase for Xbox Live Gold using the currency on their account. The customer would have to purchase an Xbox Live Gold prepaid code with the currency on
    their account and redeem the code. Recently, this method of purchasing an Xbox Live Gold subscription has been changed. Customers are now able to complete a purchase for Xbox Live Gold by using the currency on their account. We hope this helps!

    Xbox Live good gifting

    So you went to purchase a gift code for Xbox Live, and in the purchase for you it gave you an error?

    Is this the link you are using to make a purchase: Buy Xbox Live Gold — Xbox Live Gold 1 Month | Xbox

    and are you choosing the "Give as a gift" option?

    Or are you using this link: Buy Xbox Live Gold Membership (Digital Code) - Microsoft Store and its giving you a purchase error?

    Thank you,

    Hey there,

    Did you purchase Xbox Live Gold through the Minecraft + Gold page through the Xbox One dashboard, or did you purchase a 3 Month Xbox Live Gold pre-paid code and redeem it? If you redeemed and Xbox Live Gold code, unfortunately you will not qualify for this
    promotion. To qualify for this promotion, 3 Months or 12 Months of Xbox Live Gold must be purchased through the Minecraft + Gold promotion page directly through the Xbox One console with a credit card on file.

    Keep us posted!
