Hi,

want to check if i have $10 in my microsoft account and would like to purchase something $11, will all the $11 come from my backup payment method or only $1?

You don't really have to buy it !

If you click on buy you will be asked how you want to pay it. If you have credits on your account it will always show first.

If you really buy it, then it will take the 10$ plus 1$.

You need a backup credit card or payment, not only the $1, so if you don't cancel, MS needs to be sure they can take money from the backup payment

you must have a backup payment option, the balance will be charged from your microsoft account, but the backup option is required, it can be paypal, credit card or debit

Hello! As long as you have any active subscriptions you have to have credit card or paypal account on file as payment, even if it's just as a backup payment method.

Hey Hudson! Yes, it will take the balance first, if available, and charge your card for the rest.
