A Xbox / Microsoft code can add a game, subscription or wallet credit. The result depends on the code type, account country and device. Check all three on the order before typing anything because a redeemed code is normally attached permanently to the receiving account.
Prepare the correct account and device
Sign in to the Xbox / Microsoft account that should receive the product. Check its country, the exact offer name, any wallet currency and the expiry date. A console used in Tunisia may have an account configured elsewhere; the account country and code conditions matter more than physical location.
Redeem the Xbox / Microsoft code
- Open the official store or code-redemption page on the console, app or web.
- Verify the email address of the account currently shown.
- Enter the code without spaces and recheck ambiguous characters.
- Review the product detected by the service and continue only when it matches the order.
- After confirmation, open the library, subscriptions or wallet according to the product type.
Confirm what the account received
A game should appear in the account library, a subscription under active services and a gift card in the wallet balance. Also verify edition, console generation and included content. A downloadable item is not automatically compatible with DLC or a base game from another region.
Solve a rejected or missing code
- A region error requires checking the account country, not only your current location.
- An already-used code requires checking purchase history and other household accounts.
- An unrecognized code can contain a mistyped character or still require supplier activation.
- Missing content may be listed under the complete library, add-ons or subscriptions.
Account safety and useful evidence
Never share the account password, two-factor code or session cookies. For support, keep the order number, a masked view of the code and a screenshot of the complete error without personal information.
Browse compatible Xbox / Microsoft offers and read the TuniGamers player guides before buying another format or region.
