Limited to one per customer.

Possibly best price yet? Can't confirm if 5% Facebook like works or not but doubtful.

Just a couple of tips when ordering from CDKeys:
* Always change the price (top-right corner) to USD before ordering
* Always pay by Paypal
* There is a small chance that they will request a copy of photo id to be sent through. Credit: Guidedlight. Thanks.

Edit: So what I've just noticed is that if you use USD its $40.24 AUD once PayPal conversion are done. If you buy in AUD its $39.47 AUD. In this instance definitely buy in AUD!

    I have no idea how CDKeys consistently has the best price on the internet… and then they beat it even more.

      Added to title. Some good tips for cdkeys newbies.

      Using Paypal it's about $1 cheaper using AUD rather than USD. Am I missing something?

      • Vlaka on 28/11/2015 - 19:12

        it should be $38.77 usd i think?

        • bxpressiv on 28/11/2015 - 19:14

          I guess if your bank converts, then yes USD is probably better, but by PayPal conversion AUD is better.

          @bxpressiv:

          I've checked and Paypal converts to $39.47 (AUD) with AUD picked at the start or $40.24 (AUD) with USD picked at the start.

    • ilikeradiohead on 29/11/2015 - 02:37

      I think it's cheap because of price arbitrage. Since Xbox Live Gold can be bought anywhere, places where it's really cheap, or where there has been a recent currency drop, like Russia, can exploit the fact that the local price might be $30US or something, even though when the product first came out it might have been $60US equivalent.

  • Vlaka on 28/11/2015 - 19:09

    if it weren't for the shady asking for id thing i'd be on this.

    • geo365 on 28/11/2015 - 19:10

      Is there a third party who has never asked for this? I've bought over 20 games and an Xbox live sub from them. Nothing shady about these guys. If you haven't followed them on Facebook I recommend it. Their customer service is also fantastic.

      Pretty certain 2 years, also these cards don't expire until they're redeemed.

    Ouch. I just learned something the hard way but thankfully it's not too bad.

    I had a week left on my Australian Xbox Live account. I put in this code and it immediately cancelled my old Xbox Live time to activate this one.

    Thankfully it's only a week and the value of the deal more than makes up for it.

      "Please Note: The 'stacking' of Xbox Live subscriptions is no longer allowed by Microsoft. Users will recieve an error when attempting to add more than one subscription card at a time." That's on download link, not sure when it started.

        Thanks for pointing that out for others. I was in too much of a rush to get it but you sure helped others. As I said I'm glad it was only a week.

      • CamM on 29/11/2015 - 15:23

        Just purchased one of these and was able to successfully extended my Live subscription out to October 2017. Stacking clearly still works, but as others have pointed out, there may be specific scenarios where it doesn't quite work as expected.

    • Smigit on 29/11/2015 - 14:25
      +2

      My account expires in March and just added this to it, for an expiry of March 2017 now. I think they can stack, but there's some conditions around when it will and won't work, possibly around what you used to get the credit previously.

      • joeno on 29/11/2015 - 18:20

        So trials don't stack, but the $1 deal does?

        • Smigit on 29/11/2015 - 18:38

          I haven't used the $1 deal. No idea what stacks with what to be honest other than I was able to add the 12 months to a membership that had 4 months remaining. I think my current time was from a promo for a free year when signing up to O365 some time ago (it's been years since I had to renew as I stacked about 2.5 worth of at one point).

And does it expire soon after getting it?do you need to have your Xbox set up?i just got myself a Xbox one and was wondering if I can get this before I have it set up,and find I hear you can get a free trial and then start using this?

        This is only for 360. For Xbox One, you can only access the games when you have an active gold subscription.

          "This is only for 360. For Xbox One, you can only access the games when you have an active gold subscription."

          Yep, this. Once the Gold expires, the games are still in your library but you can't actually play them until you renew your subscription.

        • gizmomelb on 29/11/2015 - 17:20

    So if I downloaded some of the free games and then my live expires I can no longer use them until I get live again that sucks seems the have there hand out all the time for more money,if it had been free games to keep would have been excellent but I'm not so sure now

    • mishrael on 29/11/2015 - 12:14

      To clarify. If you've had gold and downloaded the free games in the month on xbox 360 you can play those games without a gold subscription. However the Xbox One games require you to have an active subscription to play, Just like the PSN plus account for Playstation. So it depends on the system whether or not you need an active live gold account to access your free games.

    my live god expires on "9/1/2016". I really dont know it is 1 September or 9 January. My current region is US ( i think), because i just changed it from HK to US. The reason it was HK is that someone posted a deal here for purchasing metro deluxe bundle at HK store.

    Anyway, i am really confused. How can i find out? It is "prepaid 12m xbox live gold", but i cant find record (emails) that i renew the live in august this year, but i did purchase a code from G2A in August 2014!
