The Xbox Live Gold 12 Month end-price is $47.49 on Eneba (as indicated below), but the user must also redeem a month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $1 for new users and $15.95 for expired users to the whole price.

  • "After you've activated the Xbox Live Gold, redeem the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate month from the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate landing page(microsoft.com)."

    do you need vpn for above step?

  • I was using Taobao to subscribe 3 years XGPU for just around AUD$50

    • -1

      $50 for three years, or for $50 per year? If the latter then this is obviously cheaper, if the former then why aren’t you posting a link for us?

      • -2

        For 3 years. But that deal is no longer available.
        FYI, it was around $30 aud for 3 years subscription in November.

  • -1

    Do these expire? I’m thinking of saving some just in case Microsoft’s spending spree will raise the prices

    • +1

      I would use them immediately tbh

  • Still waiting till 1 February for the Xbox pre orders..
    Should I try this now? First ever Xbox

    How many years are most people going for? Worried might not work and end up wasting money for Live Gold, I don’t even play multiplayer..

    • Game pass is more than multiplayer, you get access to 100+ games including all off the Halo games, the newer Forza games etc

    • I did 3 years last week. Also hoping for the 1st Feb preorder to come through.

      I used CDkeys and worked like a treat, as long as you follow the instructions.

  • +1

    Mine is expiring in a couple of months - just wondering do i just let it lapse and then pickup 3 years like this deal?

    • +1

      Yes you need to let your current XGPU lapse then you can use this method

  • Do you need a VPN activated on your console / PC to play?

    • +1

      Nope, only need the VPN when signing up.

  • Have xbox dropped the thing where it needs payment from the country where you got Gold from? I tried this trick with a Brazilian game pass card. Used a VPN, loaded it to my account no worries and got three years of Gold. When I tried to upgrade to Ultimate, it rejected my PayPal and credit card saying currency must match the country Gold was activated in.

    • +1

      Just did it and it works for me :)

    • +1

      I did this but with Brazilian codes, once the gold codes have been activated, disable any VPN & login again as normal (ir from Australia). Then upgrade to GPU.

  • +1

    I did this last week using a Turkey VPN. Can confirm it worked for me.

  • Thanks OP. Ive done 1 year and paid the $15.95 to upgrade to ultimate. Now that i'm happy its working, can I go back and add the other 2 years?

    • +3

      Nope

    • +1

      Only once your current expires. Otherwise it’ll upgrade the gold at a lower ratio.

  • If I still have my 3 month PC Game Pass trial active, will this work?

    • +1

      Nah have to wait till it ends

      • @daniltaru I had PC Game Pass (not ultimate) and it worked fine for me

  • What if I currently have a subscription active? (Currently paying $15 a month automatically coming out)
    Can I just buy these and it will add them on top so I don't get charged till I run out of months?

    • Need to let it expire before you can do this method.

  • Should this not work, as is the case for some in previous posts. What’s the best excuse to tell Xbox technical support?

  • Bought 3 years only to get "You currently have a subscription from a different region. If it still doesn't work, please contact customer support." when trying to activte the ultimate
    Cant even subscribe to gamepass at all now too :( VPN was turned off for last step

    • Worked for me, did you use PayPal to play for it ?

      • Oh, would it be an issue if you aren't using PayPal? I don't have a PayPal account, since they asked me for personal information that I didn't want to hand out to them (stuck with a frozen account)

    • Does this come up when you enter the codes, or try to upgrade to XGPU? I think I had a similar issue for the upgrading part, but I had accidentally entered the codes into the US coupon page. So I had to upgrade to XGPU with a US payment method, or use a US XGPU digital code (I got it one off Amazon).

  • Oh boo. My GPU only expires on the 6th of February. Would it still be possible to claim this deal? If so, how?

    • If it's only a week or so out from expiry then you can still buy it now and then just load the codes into your xbox account later (I'd personally be a bit hesitant from waiting too long though).

      Though FWIW this site always has it for the same price anyway, code gives you a discount of $4.40 so worst case scenario you wait for your expiration date and pay an extra $4 per year.

    • I did it full price (~$50) a few days ago. I wouldn't sit on the codes just in case however. The saving isn't much. Just wait

  • just make new accoutns and game share your xbox every month

    $12 a year forever

    • What do you mean by game share?

      • Think they are talking about creating new accounts each month then sharing the Game Pass with the main account on the same console.

      • 'my home xbox'

    • They likely got rid of it, but in the day I believe there was some restrictions on how many trials can be used on a console over it's lifetime. Don't remember any specifics so it may not be relevant at all, but it would seem wise to try to stop this sort of abuse.

      • +1

        same card, same console, same adress, same everything, different email
        done it for the past 2 years
        $24 for 2 years

        • Lmao (profanity) hats off to you. When my sub ends I might do the same, always used to enjoy piling up the games on gold and plus but there's been sweet (profanity) all I actually played in years.

  • THX, just bought 3 for a total of $137.86

    TIP - Change the default currency to Euro for Eneba & let PayPal charge you in euros, paid with a BankWest Platinum with no conversion fees.

  • Followed the instructions exactly and it worked without issue. Thanks

  • Anyone able to purchase games from other country/region?

  • If I already have an active gamepass subscription. I can buy the Xbox gold subscription , connect to vpn and activate right?

    • No. Needs to be expired to get upgrade as far as I know.

    • I had PC sub with a few days left on it.
      I cancelled that, then followed OP's instructions - worked beautifully.

  • Holy shit, man. It actually worked! I got scared for a second after it said I was in the wrong region but I thought to myself "might as well still try" and it actually worked!

  • My XGPU doesn't expire for another month. If I purchase the vounchers now, can I redeem later and still able to convert them to XGPU?

  • I have XGPU 3 month trial, can I take advantage of these deal?

  • I'm interested in trying this as well as other PC Game Subscriptions services…

    It would be great if you could give me some advice via my "Find me a Deal" thread below
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/680153

    Regarding this deal - I'm also curious has anyone had any luck using prepaid Visa cards from the shops with this and others?
    And what other 'more anonymous' payment methods are cheap and successful for this stuff?

    Thank you for your time

  • Worked for me, great deal!

  • +1

    Added 3 years of gold, this worked fine, then when I go to add Ultimate it wants to charge $15 per month, what am I doing wrong?

    • +1

      I'm getting the same thing. Activated the 36 months OK, but asking $15 per month for Ultimate upgrade. Tried both uprade link above and the link from within my xbox subscriptions.

      • +2

        Still have the same issue today, very frustrating. If anyone figures this out please post the fix, thanks 👍

  • Is this how it’s done, never done anything like this before so just wanna make sure I’m gonna do it right sorry

    1.Normal browser no vpn on
    2.Purchase Xbox live from eneba using my PayPal
    3.Turn on windscribe vpn turkey Istanbul
    4.Go to redeem.Microsoft.com and sign into my Australian Xbox account
    5.Enter the Xbox live code and redeem it
    6.Turn off vpn

    • Yes, just did it 5 mins ago and it works (3 years gamepass). However i can't get it to upgrade to ultimate for some reason.

      • Well I’m needing ultimate. I read that you need to pay the $15.95 to upgrade it to ultimate or it’s $1 if you haven’t used that deal

        • for some reason, I'm getting the same result as WhiteEvo6, instead of asking for a one off payment of $1 or $15, it is asking for $15 each month. Not sure if the loophole has been closed, or if its just a couple of us with issues. I don't really need Ultimate (playing on PC), but i'd like it.

          • @fenric: No idea sorry I’m trying to learn before I do it

            So you have 3 years of Xbox live not gamepass correct?

            You need to pay the $15.95 to upgrade that to gamepass as I read but that should just be a one off fee of $15.95 tho

            Maybe they have fixed this so it can’t be done anymore???

            • @Twisty: yes, the 3 years of gamepass part worked fine. Just the ultimate upgrade didn't (was asking for monthly payment rather than one off).

              • @fenric: No idea sorry maybe someone else can help

                • @Twisty: Still works. After you go to the game pass ultimate landing page linked above, if you click on 1 month upgrade for $15.95 it will bring up a dialogue box that gives you calculation of when your next payment will be due based on how long you have xbox live subscription for (for example - if you have 36 months subscription your next payment will be due around Jan 2025).

                  • @mick9: Thanks

                  • @mick9: Ahh Ok. The wording when you go to pay is "$15.95 every month", but you are right, it just updates to the expiry of your current subscription. Thanks for the clarification.

  • Got it to work

    Thanks everyone

  • For those like me that had $15 per month, this is correct. The wording is just a little confusing. I clicked continue and paid the $15, I figured worst case I'll just cancel it after a month

    The key is to read the details :)

    When you click on "Join $15 per month", the first screen comes up and says this

    Joining Xbox Game pass ultimate will upgrade your remaining xbox live gold to ultimate at a current conversion ratio.

    Then it says, and this is the important part

    Your new Xbox Game Pass Ultimate renewal date will be: 31/01/2025

    If I then click on continue, it says you will be charged $15 per month which is correct, it will charge you $15 per month, at your renewal date above, so in my case in 3 years.

    Just to confirm I have clicked join for $15 per month and my subscription shows I am upgraded to ultimate until 31/01/2025. Make sure you disable auto renew in your subscription so you dont get a $15 in 3 years

    Xbox Game Pass Ultimate
    Next charge on January 31, 2025, AU$15.95

  • is this still active - when does it expire?

  • i've just noticed - does this only say expired because the thread is a week old?

  • Can someone delete my two posts above please
