Not much to say here. It's a card that gives you money you can put on your Xbox Live account so that you can download games on to your Xbox 360 or Xbox One. My only wish is that they'd start putting out new cards that include a QR code, because the Xbox One has the ability to read QR codes and apply the money to your account without you having to manually type in the code on the card. Not a huge hassle, but it'd be nice!

quick+easy=convenient. I can quickly access the product (a card) and then download the points for easy use. This purchase is always convenient and can be used for a variety of fun gaming activities. The best part is...I do not have to use any of my personal banking information online. Even when renewing my yearly subscription to XBOX Live. The various dollar dollar denominations are cool, too!

I use these exclusively now after xbox and sony's gaming sites were hacked. You never know what information, if any, was taken in these attacks. So now my payment info is cleared and I now use these exclusively as means for content purchases.
Much safer, and at times they're even cheaper than face value.

These cards allow you to preload your xbox live account with money so you don't have to save your credit card information on their servers. Good product with lots of uses. Once redeemed on the xbox it can be used for games or subscription fees!

I love the Xbox gift cards and the amount of options you have to spend the money on. The Xbox marketplace has greatly expanded beyond just games. You have full market retail games that can be purchased and downloaded without ever having to leave your house. The also have a ton of arcade games that can be downloaded as well. I personally bought this to download some movies and TV shows for my family to enjoy. We rented a few movies and bought some cartoon TV shows for my kid. The marketplace also has a ton of movies and music to choose from. The Gift Card can also be used to buy movies and TV shows on VUDU so that way you can enjoy them across all your devices.

Value for your buck

Buying these cards at stores (online or brick and mortar) is usually a better deal than using your credit card directly on your console. At Best Buy, particularly, you get Best Buy points for your purchase. This particular time, Xbox currency cards were 10% off, and there was a promotion that netted an extra few bucks for making the purchase at a store. So, it was pretty much a no brainer, as far as value for your buck goes. Buying gift cards for things that you spend money on anyways is a good way to go with all of the loyalty/points programs out there!

I love these gift cards because I don't trust any gaming login with my personal credit/debit card information. So to alleviate any issues I buy these cards to protect myself and to buy the necessary add-ons/games from the Microsoft store. This was the best thing they even created for those who want to buy content without putting their bank/credit info in their systems. And the $15 card is great if you didn't need the $20 or $50 one.

Xbox Live is still the online service to beat. Rarely have network errors. Its easy enough to buy a card and put in the code. Have had a couple instance where it would say the code was already redeemed, but have not had a problem replacing it at the store. Xbox Live goes even further on Xbox One now that the family can share the Gold membership without each person having to buy their own now, which saves my family money.

This card is a great buy and totally worth the money. The reason I say this is because it's WORRY FREE! You don't have to worry about someone else hacking your kids account or your account & using added & saved credit card numbers. Then having to worry about the hassle of reporting theft & getting your money back. Perfect for Kids! This is only $15, so the most you could lose is $15.

Great way to buy stuff from Xbox Live without entering your credit info Into the Xbox. With all these companies getting hacked, it is very unsettling to enter in your personal info and risk identity theft. This card is safe and secure. Plus if you buy this card from Best Buy, you also get the Best Buy Reward points from the purchase... so it is a bit of a bonus in itself!

I loveeee my xbox gift card! I use it for game add on's mainly, but will also buy arcade games and movies from time to time. I highly recommend using this and keeping your account with a balance. It's a lot safer than using your card through xbox services. I only wish these would go on sale more often. I very rarely find these cheaper than face value.
