Apple Gift Card to use for iPad problems

Was trying to use a valid $25 Apple Gift Card (verified by Apple), but promo code box on Apple Store checkout will not accept the 16 number code (stops at 12, I think).
Gift card phone support was CSR heck, and kept getting transferred to non-empowered support staff.
Gave up after a futile half hour with 4 different overseas Apple CSRs.
I didn't see an option for gift card entry, only promo code.
Anyone want a useless card? LOL

If you went on to the payment screen on the Apple store web site you would see a tab for entering your Gift Card information. It accepts the 16-digit number.

  • Why Can't I use an Apple Gift card to buy an ipad!?!

    So, I received an apple gift card for graduation from college. It was $500 and I wanted to use to buy an iPad.
    The person at the apple store said I was not allowed to use a gift card to pay for more than %50 of an iPad.
    My question is...WHY? They got their money when someone purchased the gift card, what does it matter?
    I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, or knows why this is apple's policy. It just doesn't seem to make sense to me.

    That is a very, very big assumption.
    Apple could simply check the gift card and see if the purchase of that card was valid. They would have to Do that anyway to verify the amount on it anyway.
    Not wanting to pony up the cash could be a sign of naughtiness.
    I have a gift card and want to use it so that is a sign of naughtiness?
    If i got a gift card and could not use it, I would be beyond ticked off! It' s valid or it isn't.
    Nothing here -> says anything about a limitation as the op describes.

  • IPhone, iPod gift card--will work for iPad?

    I thought I was buying a gift card for my wife to use to purchase apps for her iPad. The gift card says for iPhone and iPod. Will it work for iPad as well, or is there a specific iPad gift card that I need to get?

    If these are Apple-issued cards, the designation of "iTunes Apps Gift Card" for any card that carries a monetary amount is marketing only. All those cards are actually good for any content in the iTunes Store, for any device.

  • Can a back to school gift card be used for music as well?

    I recent purchased a mac book and received a $100 gift card to go with it. I just want to know if the gift card can be used for music instead of "back to school apps" like the websiye says.

    It can be used for anything in the iTunes store.

  • How can I credit the $75 Apple Store Gift Card I got for purchasing my iPad Air to my iTunes account?

    I am confused with this process. The above is my question I don't know why the process asked me for a comment.

    Limnos is correct. The Apple Store gift card is used for purchasing product at the Apple Store. The iTunes gift card is used for downloading digital content. They are not interchangeable as Limnos said.

  • Not able to use Apple Gift card for buying ipad apps

    Hello all.
    I recently bought online a 200$ Apple Gift Card for buying apps for the iPAD.
    I can't seem to be able to do that. My gift card has a number and a pin. Does this mean I can only use it phisically to buy in the store?
    I just want to buy apps.
    Thanks!

    You do need an iTunes-Gift Card instead - Your card can be used for shopping at the Apple Online Store.

  • Why can't I use my Apple gift card for app purchases?

    Why can't I use my Apple gift card for app purchases? The Apple store sells iTunes gift cards, but I can't buy one with the remaining balance on my gift card.... Why won't you let me buy what I want to buy?
    Terrible policy.....

    No idea.

  • How do i use apple gift card to pay on barclay card?

    i guess i screwed up, i got a apple gift card and for some reason i thought i could use it for payment
    on my new ipad mini
    I see nothing on barclay account except add bank account
    So am i now stuck with a 50 dollar gift card.
    Also sure wish i got 3 or 4 g with this, useless
    being a passenger on a trip

    If you got an Apple Store gift card, you can indeed use it toward purchase of an iPad. You cannot, however, use a gift card to pay Barclay's if you financed your iPad through them since they are a completely separate company. It would be like trying to pay an overdraft at your bank with a store gift card.  Barclay's will accept only cash (in the form of a check, usually).
    Apple gift cards cannot be returned, so you're stuck with it. You'll have to try and sell it to someone else if you need the cash to pay on your Barclays account.

    I have a US iTunes account but no longer have a US credit card for set up, everything I purchase is with apple gift cards, how can I activate match?

    You will only be able to use one account at a time with the Apple TV. This will mean that you can only rent or purchase content from one account, you would need to log out and into the other account in order to rent or purchase from that.
    You should however, be able to use content from both accounts in iTunes on your computer, provided that the content from the account that you are not logged into is authorised to be played on that computer. Consequently you should be able to AirPlay content from both accounts to the Apple TV from iTunes or play content from both accounts via the computer section on the Apple TV.
