Hello,

I am currently free to upgrade my phone/plan and was hoping to confirm whether or not I can use BestBuy gift cards to purchase a phone either through the activate today or activate later options? 

Thank you!

Hi there, vertigosrs,

Thank you for visiting us here on our community forums. With how expensive a new phone is I can understand wanting to use gift cards! It sounds like you are looking to purchase an unlocked phone, is that correct? You shouldn't have any problems purchasing this with a gift card. Please keep in mind that often times an upgrade through your carrier will be paid for with monthly payments. Let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi Andrew! I was looking to pay for the phone at the "activate today" one time price at Best buy for Sprint service. An example would be the note 9 with Sprint for the 899.99 activate today upgrade price in a Best Buy retail store.

Hello, vertigosrs,

Thank you for following up with me. Because this would be one-time payment and not monthly installments you shouldn't run in to any issues using a Best Buy gift card as a form of payment.
