Solve the “we need more information” error message when redeeming a Google Play gift card
Firstly, be rest assured that your card is not bad, and you are not the only one experiencing this error. This does not also mean that your card is invalid or expired. For first-time users, the following steps are how to use a google play gift card:
- Open your Google Play app. If you don’t have it installed, you can go and google to get it installed on your mobile device. If you use a Mac or PC, visit play.google.com/redeem to access the “redeem gift code” webpage.
- Click on the profile icon on the top right corner for mobile. Mac and PC users do not need to take any action at this stage because the above link goes directly to the “redeem gift code” webpage.
- Select Payments and subscription, then select redeem gift code. Now everyone (Mobile, PC, and Mac) should be on the same page.
- Enter the digit/code on the gift card in the section provided.
NB: Google Play gift cards are redeemed for credit in the form of a Google Play balance that is available to purchase content in the Store. Content that one could purchase on the Google play store includes books, games, music, premium apps, and other exciting content. Google will not redeem Google play gift cards for cash or other items; they are only redeemable for Google Play Balance.
Having known all of these, Let’s roll into the subject of discussion.
