Trading games?

Hi, so I really want to buy Forza Horizon 4 when it comes out, but I dont want to use my debit card, because I dont really trust digital purchases. I searched if there is a physical copy of the game, but I can buy it only digitally for pc. After that I got an idea. What if I trade my old games for a new game. I have like 2-3 games which I dont play at all and when I bought them they were like 60 dollars. So I was thinking if I can trade those games to get a code for Forza Horizon 4? I found 1 website, but it is not world wide and that is a problem, because I live in Bulgaria. So, if someone knows this kind of a website and has used it please reply to me.

BTW 2 of the games that i have are from Origin. They are Need for Speed Payback and Star Wars Battlefront. The other one is Overwatch, but I am not really sure if I should sell this one.

I think you can get a PayPal gift card at any store and pay with PayPal for the game.

They probably are. PayPal is fairly common. You could look into a crypto currency if you wanted to. That is a tad bid extreme though.

You can just use your card via PayPal and then remove it from PP if you want to. I'd recommend you to buy the game via Swiss MS website or set Xbox'es region to Switzerland or Norway as they usually have lower prices and you can do it without any problems or restrictions. In fact can select any EU member state, Switzerland or Norway.

You can't trade digital games. They are tied to account you redeem code with or purchase them. If they are only run from disc and not tied to account, then you can sell them. Also, selling accounts is against services ToS. Meaning that if service support finds out, account will get locked and they have all right to freeze any email and/or payment methods associated with those accounts to prevent further misconducts.

Well if I trade the account for another game does it count as selling it?

Yes. It's giving access to account for exchange of something.
