Buy Xbox Gift Card for United States (USD)
United States Xbox gift card in USD: 8 values, 1 USD to 100 USD, delivered as a code and redeemed to a matching Microsoft Store account.
The United States listing sells an Xbox gift card for United States: 8 values in USD running from 1 USD to 100 USD, delivered as a code and redeemed to a Microsoft account rather than to a console profile. No player ID or gamertag detail is asked for at checkout.
What the Microsoft Balance Buys
Microsoft's own description of the balance is broad: Microsoft Store online, Windows and Xbox, downloads for apps, games, movies and TV shows, and in most countries also consoles and accessories. For a United States account the practical effect is that the credit is spent across purchases, not consumed by one.
Values on This Page
United States carries 8 face values in USD, from 1 USD to 100 USD: 1 USD, 5 USD, 10 USD, 15 USD, 20 USD, 25 USD, 50 USD and 100 USD. All 8 are in stock today, so the table on the listing can be ordered as shown. The family runs from a single value up to 12, so this sits in the middle of that range.
Every step is denominated in USD and added to the account at the value printed on it, so the figures above are the card's own design. Availability moves per step, which is why the table on the listing is worth reading before picking a figure.
Which Account This Code Reloads
The rule that decides whether this code lands is the account's region, not the console. Microsoft's terms state that a card's currency can only be added to an account registered in a jurisdiction where that currency is official, that the balance is spent at participating stores in that jurisdiction, and that the balance cannot be converted into another currency. This listing is the United States card in USD.
An account registered elsewhere needs the matching market instead, which is why the South Africa listing and the UAE listing are separate pages. Checking the account's region before buying is the whole of it.
How to Redeem an Xbox Gift Card
Redemption runs on Microsoft's own pages, not through this store, and the steps are the same in every market:
- Sign in at redeem.microsoft.com with the Microsoft account that should hold the balance.
- Choose Redeem code and enter or paste the 25-character code from the order page.
- Confirm, and Microsoft adds the full value to the account balance immediately.
On a console the same code is redeemed from the guide: press the Xbox button, open Store, choose Redeem and type the code. Microsoft's redeem page also notes that if the wrong code was bought, the retailer is the one to contact - support here is the same route.
Does the Balance Expire?
Does the balance run out? Microsoft states that non-promotional balance does not expire and that holding it costs nothing; only promotional credit carries an expiry tied to its promotion, and that is deducted first. A United States buyer therefore gains shelf life, not a deadline, which is the main difference from the PIN-style products elsewhere in this store.
Delivery
The code arrives electronically - on the order page and in the inbox - once payment is confirmed, typically within minutes. There is no courier and no address field, and nothing is handed over by hand, so the code can sit until the account it belongs to is ready for the balance.
Before You Buy
The account's country or region is the first thing worth confirming: this is the United States card in USD, and Microsoft states that a currency can only be added to an account registered where it is official. After that, paste the 25-character code straight from the order page, and treat the balance as store credit rather than cash.
