How to redeem gift cards and codes

Notifications

Redeem gift cards and codes to make Xbox purchases and extend your Xbox subscriptions.
Codes are 25 characters long, include both numbers and letters, and follow a 5x5 format—five blocks of five characters. Codes can be digital or physical cards that you purchase from Microsoft or a trusted retailer.
Note that codes can’t be activated or used if your account has an outstanding balance or payment option is no longer valid. For more info, go to:
Important Before you redeem your code, make sure that you’re signed in to the correct Microsoft account on your device or browser. Codes that are redeemed on the wrong account can not be transferred to another Microsoft account by Xbox Support.
