Xbox Gift Card 5 GBP – United Kingdom Digital Code
Digital Key
Add £5 to a UK Microsoft Account
The Xbox Gift Card 5 GBP is the smallest wallet top-up in this category. Redeem the digital code on an eligible United Kingdom Microsoft account to add the full £5 value as spendable account balance.
This denomination is useful for a lower-cost item, a small add-on or supplementing funds already held on the account. The balance can be applied to eligible purchases from Microsoft Store online, on Windows or on Xbox, including selected games, add-ons, in-game content, apps, films and Xbox-related subscriptions.
UK Account Required
The receiving Microsoft account must be registered in the United Kingdom. The GBP balance cannot be added to an account from another country, converted into a different currency or transferred after redemption.
Digital Code Delivery
After payment confirmation, the code is sent to the email address entered at checkout. Sign in to the intended account and check that Microsoft displays £5 before confirming. No physical gift card or specific game is included.
How to Redeem a UK Xbox Gift Card

After successful redemption, the full gift-card value is added to the Microsoft account balance. It can then be used for eligible purchases at participating Microsoft digital stores.
