So you accidentally used your mom's credit card to buy that sweet new Fortnite skin? Don't worry, we've all been there (except maybe not with Mom's credit card... hopefully).
Here's how to detach your plastic pal from your Xbox One before you hear the world's most terrifying phrase: "Honey, did you buy THAT with MY card?!"

| How To Take Credit Card Off Xbox One |
Step 1: Channel your inner Indiana Jones and venture into the Settings
First, grab your controller (and maybe a calming beverage for Mom). Press the big ol' Xbox button in the center, then navigate your way to the gear icon (because settings are all about fine-tuning, right?). This will open the Settings menu, a labyrinth of options more exciting than weekend chores (probably).
QuickTip: Break reading into digestible chunks.
Step 2: Embrace the grind: The Account & Payment Odyssey
From the Settings menu, scroll down (because apparently nobody likes good news right away) until you see the "Account" section. Click on that bad boy, and then prepare yourself for another adventure - the "Payment & billing" section. Just remember, these trials will make you stronger (and hopefully debt-free).
Tip: Summarize each section in your own words.
Step 3: Behold! The credit card you seek (hopefully it's yours)
Inside the "Payment & billing" section, you'll see a glorious list titled "Payment options." This is where the magic happens. Look for the credit card information you want to vanquish (with extreme prejudice, of course).
QuickTip: Reading twice makes retention stronger.

Step 4: Banish the beast: The art of removal
Once you've identified the rogue card, hover over it with your controller's magic cursor. A tiny trash can icon should appear, just begging to be clicked. Do it! Click the "Remove" button, and with a satisfying poof, your credit card will be gone from your Xbox One, hopefully never to return (unless you, you know, add it back again).
Tip: Avoid distractions — stay in the post.
Remember: Great power comes with great responsibility. Use your Xbox wisely, and maybe consider a prepaid gift card next time you're on a digital shopping spree. It'll save you a headache (and potentially some serious explaining to Mom).
