Xbox Live Indie Marketplace Help

Hey y’all.

Now this is a question thats probably answered all over the internet, but I haven’t been able to find it so I humbly submit it to you. I live in Ireland, which doesn’t seem to support the XBLIM (or whatever abbreviation they use :P). I’ve heard some people say you can just set up a UK account and they don’t check the IP to access the content. But would Xbox points card from here work on the account then?
Would really appreciate any help if yey can.
