What does a $30 card get you across platforms?
| Platform | Estimated Minecoins |
Difference vs Best |

| Xbox | ~5,010 | –150 coins |

Max’s Scenario
With a $30 gift card, Max earns ~5,160 coins via Amazon/Google/PayPal—but only ~4,800 via PSN. That 360-coin gap could mean another skin or skin pack, so platform choice impacts your in-game budget.
