It's been a while since we did one of these, but yes - it's happening again! Microsoft is giving away free Xbox gift cards to select users as part of the Xbox Countdown Sale 2024, redeemable from now until the end of January.
To see if you've been picked for one, you'll need to head to your Xbox messages ("Chats") and see if there's anything in there about the Countdown Sale from Xbox. You can see an example of what you're looking for below:
There are times when these appear to be really widespread, but on this occasion, we're only seeing a few examples here and there. It seems the gift cards might be restricted to Xbox users in the United States for the time being, but there's every chance they may extend to other regions soon as well - it's definitely worth keeping an eye out!
The only thing we'd say is to remain vigilant with stuff like this. Bots and scammers can sometimes invade your Xbox messages, so if you spot anything dodgy that doesn't appear to be directly from Xbox, you shouldn't engage with it.

If any supporting Xbox territory deserves gift cards outside of the USA it’s the UK.
Local store now sold of seres x both disc and digital.
UK is Xbox next big country after USA.
WHERES MY GIFT CARD 🤣🎄🤣
Didn't get it unfortunately
I never get these things. Phil doesn’t love me.
Nothing, but that was expected outside of Game Pass I don't spend much on the Xbox Store
I wonder if they’re mostly sent to those who aren’t frequent shoppers?
As always it’s just the US. MS should do more for other territories. Hopefully this is something they look at in 25
Removed - trolling/baiting
Loyal customer here just bought a series x and here since the original Xbox throw me a bone give me a fiver voucher man!!
Nothing for me.
I've gotten them a couple of times in the past, but no dice this year.
Guess I was on Xbox's Naughty List
16 years with Xbox and I have never got one
Nothing for me but to be fair I wouldn’t have given myself one either
Got $10 the first time, just looked and got $5 this morning. I also have 300+ digital games from the store and gift to my kids all the time.
$5 gift card. Lol.
No I haven't got one but it would be nice too
There's a dashboard ad for World of Warships - watched the video & won £7 reward - still to be deposited into my account, but did say it would take a few days
let me guess, lots of "influencers" got one.
