    Hello, good day and thanks for your question. I understand that you purchased Minecraft which is for your son but you have used your account for it.

    For this, kindly take note that you will not be able to transfer the game from one account to another as the license is tied to the account from where it was purchased and you can use your account to download and install the game.
