How to Redeem a Minecoins Gift Card
Add Minecoins to your Microsoft account — on the web or inside the game
A Minecoins gift card credits the in-game Marketplace currency for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. Redeem the code at minecraft.net/redeem or straight from the Marketplace, then sign in to the same Microsoft account to spend it.

Quick Answer: Redeeming Your Minecoins Gift Card
To redeem a Minecoins gift card, go to minecraft.net/redeem, sign in with the Microsoft account you use for Minecraft, and enter the 25-character code. The Minecoins are added to that Microsoft account and appear in the in-game Marketplace the next time you open it in Minecraft Bedrock Edition.
Where to Redeem Your Minecoins Gift Card
Minecoins attach to your Microsoft account, not to a single device, so you can redeem the code two ways: on the web at minecraft.net/redeem, or directly inside the Minecraft Marketplace on a Bedrock Edition device. Either path adds the coins to the same account — sign in to that account in-game to spend them.
On the Web (minecraft.net/redeem)
The web flow works from any browser and is the surest way to confirm the code landed on the right account before you launch the game.
- Go to minecraft.net/redeem and select Sign In.
- Sign in with the Microsoft account you use to play Minecraft.
- Enter the 25-character code in the redemption box.
- Select Redeem Code to add the Minecoins to your account.
- Launch Minecraft and open the Marketplace on the same account to see the balance.
If your card carries a 10-digit code instead of the 25-character one, the page routes you to xbox.codetocontent.com to redeem it there — both methods credit the same Microsoft account.
In the Minecraft Marketplace (Bedrock Edition)
You can redeem without leaving the game on any Bedrock device — Windows, Xbox console, mobile, Nintendo Switch, or PlayStation. Use this path when you are already in Minecraft and want the coins available immediately.
- Launch Minecraft Bedrock Edition and confirm you are signed in with your Microsoft account.
- From the main menu, open the Marketplace.
- Select Redeem Code (in the Marketplace store menu).
- Enter the 25-character code and confirm.
- Your Minecoins balance updates in the Marketplace and is ready to spend on packs and worlds.
Minecoins are a Bedrock Marketplace currency — there is no Marketplace and no Minecoins in Minecraft Java Edition, so redeem and spend on a Bedrock device.
What You Can Buy with Minecoins
Minecoins are the in-game currency of the Minecraft Marketplace. Spend them on community-made content: skin packs, texture packs, custom worlds, mash-up packs, and adventure maps built by Minecraft Marketplace creators. Because the balance is tied to your Microsoft account, anything you buy carries across every Bedrock device where you sign in with that account.
Minecoins do not buy the base game itself, a Realms subscription, or anything outside the Marketplace, and they only work in Minecraft Bedrock Edition. Treat them as wallet credit for Marketplace content, spendable across Windows, Xbox, mobile, Switch, and PlayStation under one account.
- Use it for: skins, texture packs, custom worlds, mash-up packs, and maps in the Minecraft Marketplace.
- Best match: a Bedrock Edition player who wants Marketplace content without putting a payment card on file.
Why Your Minecoins Code Isn’t Working
Most failed Minecoins redemptions trace to one of the issues below. Match what you saw on screen — or what is missing in-game — to the right fix before contacting support.
You’re trying to use it in Java Edition
Minecoins and the Marketplace exist only in Minecraft Bedrock Edition (Windows, Xbox, mobile, Switch, PlayStation). They have no use in Minecraft Java Edition. If you only own Java, redeem the code to your Microsoft account at minecraft.net/redeem and play on a Bedrock device to spend the coins — many accounts include both editions.
The code redeemed to the wrong Microsoft account
If the code accepted but the coins never appear in-game, you were likely signed in to a different Microsoft account than the one you play on. Minecoins stay on the account that redeemed them and cannot be moved between accounts. Check which account is active in-game, then sign in to that same account at minecraft.net/redeem to confirm where the balance landed.
The coins aren’t showing in the Marketplace yet
Redeeming on the web credits the account, but the in-game balance only refreshes once you open the Marketplace while signed in to that account. Launch Minecraft, open the Marketplace, and give it a moment — in some cases coins take a short while (occasionally up to a day or two) to sync after redemption.
“This code has already been redeemed”
The code was already entered on a Microsoft account — yours or someone else’s — and Microsoft will not apply it twice. If you bought the card from MyGiftCardSupply and never redeemed it, contact MyGiftCardSupply support with your order number so the seller-side team can review and replace it.
“Invalid code” or the code won’t accept
This is almost always a typo. Re-enter the 25-character code carefully — paste it directly from your delivery email, watch for an “O” entered as a zero, and strip any trailing spaces. If your card has a 10-digit code, redeem it at xbox.codetocontent.com instead of the main box.
Where to Buy Minecoins Online
Players come back for another Minecoins card for a few reasons: they spent the first balance in the Marketplace, they want to gift coins to another player’s account, or their payment card was declined at in-game checkout. A gift card adds Minecoins to a Microsoft account cleanly, without saving a new payment method to the account.
