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.

    This is a simple and easy way to get a year subscription without using a card. Not that Gold is not the same as the new Xbox Ultimate service.

    Glad it adds time, not doubling up

    When we bought the new Xbox One, it came as a special. Buy the Gold membership at the same time and save $15. Well, we already had the gold, and asked if this would add time to our current subscription or "double" up and just go for 12 months from date of purchase. (the sales guys had no clue). We decided to make the purchase anyway since we would be saving $15 (we had 3 months left on our current subscription) when we entered the information it showed that it would expire in 15 months..... Long story short, if you forget when your current gold subscription runs out, no fear, this will just add to that time!!!

    If so, you need this! Xbox Live Gold gives you access to multiplayer and free "Games with Gold" monthly. (Typically a mixture of 4 games through all generations of Xbox.) When you consider you're getting at least $30 in games every month, this becomes a pretty great value. After about 15 years of paying for it, I consider it basically like a utility payment, that I get something back on. Before you buy this, check out GamePass Ultimate though. You'll get even more for your money there!

    The obvious gift idea for your Xbox gamer. The 12 month card is always the better value especially if you catch it on sale.

    I gave 5 stars only because I got a $20 discount b/c I bought an Xbox One. Nothing new other than a couple cheap free games each month and some subtle discounts on some digital content.

    Xbox live is a must when you have an xbox console to play online games and it's a plus when you buy 3 months and get 3 months free from best buy!

    Pretty standard, except Best Buy gave me a great discount on this when I purchased my console. Definitely look for deals on these cards because there is no need to spend $60 for them.
