[SOLVED] Buying MS Points

x9_ · 12-22-2007, 05:05 PM

Ok. Am I able to buy a XBox Live Microsoft Points card and use that on the zune marketplace?

Thanks in advance,

x9

I dont think zbox points work with the zune marketplace.

zombie278 · 12-22-2007, 06:23 PM

im not sure if they do either BUT, when i log on to the zune site or the marketplace it says i have 10 points left from a previous purchase. i bought some for the 360 a while back and i had 10 left over so i guess u could use them.
-edit-
on the other hand i think it goes directly to the email account so u should be able to use them... not 100% sure.

Yeah. I know MS Points are shared if your gamertag is on the same account as your zune tag, but can an XBox Live MSPoints prepaid card be used in the Zune application?

Call 1-877-GET-ZUNE and ask.

give it a try, go to zune.net, log in, and redeem prepaid card under the account management.

I'd rather not spend money until I know for sure if I can use the card.

Also, thanks Gregory

Thankyou

I can finally use the marketplace now

MS points are universal. I've bought the $15 Zmarketplace cards and used them on my 360. Quite convenient, Though I hate the whole "point" system.

Dragod · 12-22-2007, 08:10 PM

They work. Trust me

x9_ · 12-22-2007, 08:34 PM

Once again, thanks guys.

I just wonder when MS will release the Zune in Australia :S
