An Xbox Gift Card is a prepaid card that you can use to purchase games, apps, movies, and more on the Xbox Store. These cards can also be used to subscribe to Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass, which provide additional features and benefits.
Xbox gift cards come with a cash value, and the recipient can redeem the card to add that amount to their Microsoft account.
Xbox Gift Cards are available in both digital and physical formats. Digital cards can be redeemed online, while physical cards come with a scan code that must be entered into the Xbox or Microsoft Store.
To use an Xbox Gift Card, the recipient needs a Microsoft account. If they don't have one, they'll need to create one to redeem the card.
The card usually contains a code (usually 25 characters) that must be entered on the Xbox console or Microsoft Store website to add credit to the account.
Once the card is redeemed, the credit can be used not only on the Xbox console but also on other Microsoft platforms, such as Windows PCs and mobile devices.
Xbox gift cards generally don't have an expiration date, so the recipient can use the balance whenever they want.
