How to redeem my Xbox gift card

The code is instant email delivery so there is no waiting for a card to arrive in the post. Whether you decide to gift it or keep it for yourself, redeeming is simple.

Redeem and view your Microsoft Account balance directly on Microsoft's website. Head to https://redeem.microsoft.com/ and sign in to your Microsoft Account (this is the same account you use to sign in to Xbox Live). Enter the code and your balance will be updated with the credit to spend as you wish. Remember when checking out on the Microsoft or Xbox stores to select your gift card balance as the payment option.

How can I spend my $100 Xbox gift card?

To get even more value from your card, check out what the Xbox store already has on sale and double up on the savings. We also have a huge list of the Best Xbox Games if you want inspiration on a new title. However, if you've already got an Xbox Game Pass subscription you may just want to extend that rather than increase your ever-growing backlog.  

The Xbox store doesn't just stock Microsoft accessories; you can pick up items from Razer, Steelseries, and Corsair amongst many other brands. So you can even grab one of the best Xbox headsets, or use your credit toward some of the stunning Starfield merchandise.

If gaming isn't in your interest, you could even shave some money off the Surface laptops with this gift card or purchase an Office 365 subscription.

Of course, you could gift the credit to a family member or start your holiday shopping early, depending on how generous you feel. Whatever you decide, act fast; this deal is limited time only.
