American Express Prepaid Gift Card

 I dont understand, paypal clearly states that you can use the American Express prepaid gift card. Even in the post where they announced the granted use of them, the card was in the picture. Yet, I can not pay for items with the card through paypal. All I ask is, why?

Maybe iTunes doesn't use Amex? Is there a number on the back of the card to call and verify your balance? You may want to do that first to verify there is money on the card.
If there is, I am not sure if you can do this with a gift card to a gift card, but you might try going to a retailer that sells iTunes gift cards (Walmart, Best Buy, Target, etc.) and use your Amex Gift card to buy an iTunes gift card. Now use the iTunes gift card to purchase iTunes Music Store content.

  • Using a gift card other than iTunes (American Express Kids Gift Card)

    Can someone help me? I tried to use my American Express Kids Prepaid Gift Card but it said the card wasn't valid.

  • HT204088 Need to pay a balance using a prepaid gift card.

    I have a prepaid gift card and iTunes will not accept it as a form of payment to pay a balance that I owe. Why won't they appect this card?

    iTS quality has been horrendous this past month, but it's not the fault of the Advisor's, this was Apple's shots.
    Now, standard gift cards (iTS family of stores) should work without a problem. It seems you are trying to use something else? Keep in mind you cant use a GIFT to pay for a GIFT.
    If you say you have a balance that you owe, then it looks like you're probably standing in bad credit as it is with the iTS.

  • Can I use a visa prepaid gift card on the App Store? Because whenever I try to use it, it says payment method declined.

    I got a Visa gift card and I want to buy a few apps but when I try to use it, a message comes up saying that my payment method was declined. I know that I haven't used the card at all. If I am doing something wrong, please tell me.

    Try another payment method or contact iTunes:

  • HT3702 How to use iTunes prepaid gift card

    Can u please help me with my prepaid iTunes gift card

    What problems are you having with it ? You should be able to redeem it on your computer's iTunes or on an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch : redeeming a card.
    If you are getting an error when trying to redeem then what is the error e.g. invalid code, card not activated, has some of the code been scratched off the card ?
    If the card hasn't been activated then can you take it back to the store that you bought it from so that they can activate it properly ? If not then you will need to try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes
    Similarly if you are getting an 'invalid code' or some of the code has been scratched off the card you can contact iTunes Support via the above link.
    If it's a different problem ... ?

  • Why am I not allowed to use my prepaid gift cards to buy OS X Mountain Lion?

    I am having problems installing the new software, it just sends me to the billing page. Is it because I live in Canada?

    When I click on buy app this pops up
    So I type in my password and it directs me to this page
    And it only allows me to pay only by credit card and not giftcard....what should I do?

  • American Express Delta Gold Card

    I have tried to speak to someone in customer service now at least 3 times about getting a CLI, I have been a member since 1984 and have a limit of 1000, I have submitted a request many times for an increase, always rejected. I purchased 6 first class tickets on Delta and couldn't even use the card. The tickets cost 5100. The first 2 times I called after waiting or in the middle of the conversation the phone call got dropped or I got hung up on, tonight I was on the phone for 20 minutes when they transfered me to customer service, not in the USA, after finally getting transfered to the person that I was suppose to be able to talk to about my credit line she told me she did not have a good connection and that I would have to call back.  I am sorry but they have #### poor service, and I am upset!!!!!!!!!!!! Just needed to vent !   Sorry

    well, your scores are high enough for the card. do you use it for anything else? I really cant envision myself using my amex delta gold for anything other than delta stuff....even then my PRG has 3x points for flights booked direct with carrier.  Why dont you google amex PRG 50k from private window.... if you apply and get denied its only a soft pull. This is a charge card that must be paid in full every month...not sure if they would let you run all those tickets thru but you can always see. Same goes with delta, you could get on amex.com and see if they approve a purchase above limit, it must be paid at due date (anything over ur limit).   I have had the card for 2 years, I have used the card every which way I can, light, heavy, PIF, make large payments etc, no luck, the always mention that my score is the reason, when I got the card my score was 626, so at that time I understand why my limit was 1000, but after 2 years really????????  I have not had any late payments in closed to 6 years, 2 of the 3 baddies that I had on my report when I got the card have come off, and my score is about 50 points higher than it was when I first got the card. So I pay the 95.00 fee for a 1000 card that is useless except small purchases because it doesn't have enough spending power. I don't want to give up the card because I have a 32 year member since date.  A couple of years back I could actually purchase a couple of tickets on the card, but since airline ticket prices have increased over the past year of so, the same flight that was about 500 a couple of years ago from my home town is now about 1300, rediculousman that really stinks! I dont think they allow backdating for additional cards anymore after earlier this year. Now you could consider a product change to a no annual fee card. Maybe doing a PC would let you keep the date? The ED would be an option, or BC, or Hilton.... I mean, why care about the 32 year if they hold you down with a 1k limit.. We need more info here on how much you are acutally charging and paying off.... amex does use experian primarily and I see that is your lowest score unfortunately... Sometimes you just have to move on from a card company if they cant work for you. And really....that date...is just that...a date on the card... its not like it was earlier in the year where you could apply for a 2nd, 3rd, etc card and get it backdated and have it not only on the card but I think it also was dated on your credit report.....My PRG and my Delta are back dated on my credit report to 1984, and really help with my AAOA. The new rule came out after I got my cards. Not really looking for new AE cards, just to grow the ones I have. Experian has always been my lowest score, I have 1 baddie, a 6 year old paid judgement that will fall off next year, maybe earlier. I don't know why it remains the way it is. My score on exp hardly ever fluctuates more than 10 points. Utilization about 12% or so.right but wouldnt a product change let you keep the date on the credit report, just not on the card???? If you can pc and keep the date on CR, then switch to a no AF version, and then go to another bank. You may find some luck contacting their executive office, but I have no experience in that.  So you have tried 3x CLI every 90 days for how many years?I have had the delta card since July 2013

  • Multiple prepaid iTunes gift cards.

    Before I give my kids their iTunes prepaid gift cards for Christmas I'd like to know if there is a way to keep them separate via a password, or at least by clicking on the card number. Or, do the activated cards get glommed together so you can't tell how much each person has purchased?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    As Katrina indicate, your kids would each have to have their own iTunes Music Store account for you to be able to keep the purchase separate. If they all share the same iTMS account, it's impossible to be able to keep track of who purchased what (the credits from the gift cards will indeed accumulate into one single credit).

  • HT201209 I have a Amex Gift card and input everything and the code does not work

    I have a Amex gift card and input everything and the code does not work

    http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html  - Does an Amex gift card count as a credit card?  For example, it doesn't say debit cards are accepted.  I believe one of hte differences between American Express and other cards is AmEx is not a credit card.

  • I would like to use a Visa gift card . . .

    . . . for purchasing books, music, etc., at the iTunes music store.  Would anyone happen to know if purchases can be made by using a MasterCard or Visa gift card? If so, how does it work?  Thank you.  -K

    Well, I was really asking how it worked, because I wanted to restock my account, not what cards were used by someone else.  Since there are no other explanations, I researched it myself and this is what I found:
    "We are unable to accept credit cards issued by banks outside of the United States or prepaid gift cards issued by credit card companies. Debit cards and check cards have daily spending limits that may prevent the processing of your order."
    The above statement would lead me to believe that gift cards such as Visa or MasterCard, cannot be used to restock an iTunes account. Thank you.

  • What number to use on redeem gift card

    Sounds silly, but I've got a prepaid gift card and none of the numbers on the back are correct when I enter them to redeem. There is a bar on the back of the card that looks like it should be scratched to reveal something underneath (FastCard logo plastered across the bar), but there are no directions telling me to scratch it. And I know how sometimes scratching a magnetic strip may ruin a card. I don't know. Never got one of these before. What number are they talking about using?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Assuming it's an iTunes gift card, you can buy anything in the iTunes Store other than a gift for someone else.
