 Posted: Mon, 18th May 2020 18:52 Post subject: Microsoft Gift Card |
|
 |
So I won a $25 Microsoft Gift Card (code) in a giveaway.. But I'm in Sweden and apparently I can't use it, it's only for US citizens. Ideas how I can trade/exhange/use it without having to "move" to the US? Obviously I don't want to create a fake account since I want it on my main account so that's not an option. Ideas? Any US peep want to trade? Haaaalp.

You could change your region, but you'll have to wait another 3 months to change it again.
Had to do that with my account which was still Belgian and the codes I was getting were Swe.
Maybe contact Spykez if he has a use for it or friends that could have a use for it.

Not the worst offer, but I reckon someone would give him $20 on a facebook selling site or something like that.

Yeah, not going to give it away for 60% of the worth. I'm always strapped for cash and the plan was to use this gift card to extend my Game Pass sub.

Since no one actually buys anything from Microsoft, this is clearly a scam.

Can't this be used for Xbox stuff?

Yes it can.

Yes, you can buy Xbox Live Gold subscriptions and Xbox Game Pass with a gift card online or from your Xbox.
What is the difference between a Microsoft Gift Card and an Xbox Gift Card?
The cards work just the same. Once redeemed to your Microsoft account, you can spend your balance at Microsoft Store online, on Windows and on Xbox.
Xbox Gift Cards are essentially Microsoft Gift Cards, as they can be used to purchase just about any digital content on the Windows 10 ecosystem, as well as a variety of hardware from the retail Microsoft Store. Whether it's accessories, movies, TV shows, apps, or games, both the Microsoft Store and the Xbox Store has you covered. |

I dont need it, but I'll send you $25 and you give it to someone else that wants it?

Do note that you can redeem those codes even if you're not in that country. I did that when I got a Game Pass code for US and it wouldn't allow me to redeem that on my US or Indian account as it just straight up detects the region IP. You can bypass this by merely using a VPN and switching the IP to a US one, redeem the code to the account and boom, it should work (hopefully).
