You can get Three years of Xbox Live Gold for a total of $8.69 * 4 months * 3 years = $104.28 and then convert to 3 years of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate by joining GPU.

You can only order 2 at a time, but can keep ordering over and over in multiples of 2.

For new/expired gamepass members:
You also get a free month with every 3 month redemption by leaving "turn on recurring payment" checked so it's 4 month per key. You only need 9 keys for 36mo. Once redeemed, gamepass upgrade is $1. $8.70*9+1 = $80 for 3 years of gamepass FTW

Occasionally you get an error trying to redeem with a message to change your payment. Just try again.

Convert to gamepass after you've extended Xbox Live subscription to 36 months.

Someone else (who's gamepass expired this month) did not get a $1 upgrade but a 14.99 upgrade to gamepass. It may be related to how long your gamepass was expired for prior to doing this or some other qualifier.

Your comment cannot be blank.

Featured Comments

max in cart is 2.. can you go back and buy multiples of 2?

edit: yes you can

edit2: you get a free month with every 3 month redemption by leaving "auto renew" checked so it's 4 month per key. You only need 9 keys. Once redeemed, gamepass upgrade is $1. $8.70*9+1 = $80 for 3 years of gamepass FTW

My expired gamepass is now valid thru 5/28/25

edit3: the $1 upgrade to gamepass may be dependent on how long yours was expired. Mine was expired since march and i got the $1 promo. Friend's was expired earlier this month and he's getting the $14.99 price to upgrade
GPU = Game Pass Ultimate
This is the way I did it (New gamepass/xbox live member):

1. Purchased 9x three month codes.

2. Went to https://account.microsoft.com/bil...xcom&rtc=1 (redeem code link from within my Microsoft account services once signed in) and entered each of the 9 codes one by one. After hitting redeem on each code, it gave me a prompt to turn on auto-renew to get a month free (confirmed redemption with auto-renew on for each of the 9 codes, no need to turn off auto-renew after each).

3. Once I redeemed all codes, then I went under the 'Services & subscriptions' section in my Microsoft account and above the Xbox Live subscription section there was an upgrade to game pass ultimate (GPU).

4. Clicked the option and it took me to the xbox site to buy GPU showing a discounted rate of $1 (down from $14.99).

5. Clicked through checkout and a prompt came up showing that all my xbox live gold months (up to 36) will be upgraded to GPU for $1 total. Confirmed payment method to charge $1 and voila. Next renewal 5/28/2025.

This is the way that worked for me.

Does anyone know if you can extend more than 50 days for existing members from last deal?

(i.e. have 2.5 years left on my membership, can I use 2 codes to extend 100 days? Or Can you stock up on codes for extending later if it's of any benefit?)

Thanks!
The max for Xbox subscriptions is always 3 years.
And yes you can stock up on codes, but there really isn't much of a point since these type of deals from CDkeys and Eneba show up all the time.

This deal is actually the best one from the past 3 years for renewal. $5/m is what everyone should shoot for when renewing and this one is $5.21/m ($8.69/50 days * 30). Majority of time, the deals here are around $7~$8/m. The problem is we don't know if the bonus 20 days will go away or not. That makes it risky to stock up on codes. $8.69/m is a generic deal that can be had anytime.

If I currently have Gold and GPU, what's my best course of action to getting the best value from these, and how many do you snag?

I wish people that posted these threads would include a wiki or at least links to the official Game Pass site and FAQs. The same questions keep coming up every time because people are too lazy to google things on their own.

What do you mean about bonus 20 days? Are you talking about using Xbox Live Gold codes on existing GPU subscriptions? 3 months XBL Gold is supposed to convert to 50 days of GPU normally.

Also the best deals on GPU always involve letting it expire, stack up on XBL Gold codes and then reconvert into GPU again (around $3 per month).

You get 50 days instead of standard 1 month conversion with this deal. So what I mean is whether it will stay at 50 days or will it go back to being only 1 month (30 days) only once this promotion is over. Are these codes hard-coded to always give you 50 days say in 6 months down the line when you use it again.

Like I said before, 3 month XBL Gold codes normally give 50 days of GPU, it's not a promotional thing. See the conversion chart in the FAQ linked below (under "After I join Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, can I still redeem Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass codes?").

My GPU doesn't expire until June 1st funny enough. Would I be okay buying a few codes and holding off a few days before using them to redeem at their full 3 months (4 with reoccurring billing obviously)?

OK, I have Xbox Ultimate (GPU) and it expires June 9th. Can I buy 16 of these (36 month total) and add them now or do I have to wait till unlimited is over, add them and sign up again for $14.99 and it will make all 36 months unlimited? With CD keys can I buy them now and wait to use them or should they be used ASAP. I've heard their keys are not always 100% reliable.
Thanks

Probably better to let your GPU expire, then redeem codes and upgrade to Ultimate. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I've bought steam game keys on cdkeys that were later rejected by steam saying they were bought with stolen credit cards. I would not recommend buying on cdkeys again.

happy to see the price fall back, wonder why they raised it in the first place. extended my GPU a year and now expires in May 09 2025, gives me a piece of mind, wonder when MS is going to cut these promotions because GPU is such an incredible deal.
