Customers are saying

Customers love the Xbox Live 12 Month Gold Membership for its value, ease of use, and quick code delivery. Many appreciate the straightforward redemption process and the length of the subscription. A small number of customers noted that the membership does not automatically convert to an equivalent Game Pass subscription. Overall, the positive feedback on price and ease of use outweighs the concerns about Game Pass conversion.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Gold Membership

    While I haven’t had a chance to use my gold membership this time around, I’ve had it in the past. It makes XBox that much more fun and allows me to play with friends and relatives that aren’t close. I also love getting the holiday discount for this.

    Having Xbox live Gold is mandatory for playing online games with other players. I do like the monthly free games that Microsoft gives out. The Microsoft store does run weekly discounts for Xbox live Gold members.

    We bought the subscription with the Xbox because of the promotion being such a good value. We have not had a chance yet to try it out.

    The digital code comes almost immediately so you can purchase with no reservations. I will say though Microsoft should stop charging us just to play online.

    This is what you want for your online multiplayer experience. The gold membership is great for free games also. Mind you, the games they give you aren't the ones you go out to buy. However you can't beat free! Just download your free game on xbox live about once a month they give you a new game.

    I ordered this Xbox Live 3 month Gold Membership as a digital download rather then going to the store and getting a physical card. I noticed the email a couple hours after placing the order and was able to redeem it right away on my account.

    Not sure why Microsoft is charging monthly for it on my account. But Thank goodness Best Buy had it for the original price I used to pay and it works! Gold is Awesome! You can pretty much do so much with it.

    It was a digital deliver with a code. Took about 20 minutes for the email to come in after purchasing online. Everything worked as promise and no taking a trio to the store to buy a card.

    Does what it says it does...I ended up having to get this because for some reason, you cannot buy a 12 month membership directly through the Xbox. Guess they're really pushing that Game Pass hard.

    Works like a charm! Very fast results after purchase and the best thing is that you can order here instead of going to the store for Xbox live card! Very convent especially if you got a busy day ahead of you ;)

    Digital is much more convenient. However, beware--do not wait until last day of your cycle before purchasing this product and renewing your subscription as Best Buy does not email the code immediately.
