I bought a gift card for a game and used my email address to access the print info section. However, I was prompted to sign in and accidentally redeemed the game code. Since I’m not a gamer, I need help figuring out how to give the gift to the intended recipient.
Sorry to hear that you accidentally redeemed the game code. Don’t worry, it’s an easy fix. Here’s what you can do:
You can transfer the game to the intended recipient’s account. You’ll need their gamertag to do this. If you don’t know their gamertag, you can ask them for it. Here’s how you can transfer the game:
- Sign in to your Xbox account on the Xbox website (www.xbox.com).
- Go to the “Account” section.
- Click on “Order History.”
- Find the game you accidentally redeemed.
- Click the “Manage” button next to it.
- Choose the “Gift” option.
- Enter the recipient’s gamertag and a message (optional).
- Click “Send Gift.”
Alternatively, if you don’t want to transfer the game directly, you can also gift the game code to the recipient. Here’s how:
- Go back to the “Order History” section.
- Find the game you accidentally redeemed.
- Click the “View Game Code” button.
- Copy the game code.
- Send the game code to the recipient via email, text, or any other method you prefer.
The recipient can then redeem the game code on their own Xbox account.
Let me know if you need any further help or clarification on these steps.
