Can I setup iTunes with a prepaid credit card

I want to setup a new iTunes account for my grandmother but I do not want to use my credit card or hers. I want to use a prepaid credit card, can this be done? If so, are there any preferences like visa, MasterCard, etc?
Thank you

You can try it, but prepaid "credit" cards often won't work since there usually isn't a billing address associated with them against which the iTunes Store processing system can verify. If you don't want to use credit cards, consider using prepaid iTunes cards/gift certificates instead.
Regards.

  • Buying songs from itunes with a prepaid credit card

    i am trying to buy 2 songs from the iTunes Store with a prepaid credit card,after i enter all the info i get error saying the credit card information does not match my bank information,which i never entered when i set up my apple account.does any body have any idea how to correct this problem.  thanks

    I don't think that prepaid credit cards will work - iTunes validates that the name and address that the credit card is registered to is the same as on your iTunes account, and prepaid cards tend not to have a registered address so will fail that validation. Depending upon what country that you are in you might be able to use the card to purchase iTunes gift cards and then use those as your payment method on your iTunes account.

  • I'm trying to purchase iTunes Match with my prepaid credit card.  It's actually a one vanilla Visa card.  It's not working is there anyway around not having to have a valid credit card.

    Valid methods of payment vary from country to country.  Which country?

    Can I get iTunes match without a credit card number

    You cannot...
    Note: You may use store credit to pay for your iTunes Match subscription however a valid payment method must still be on file at the time of sign up.

    Yo Chris. I've been following your answers to different threads and quite frankly, you're very keen in answering everybody regarding this stupidity that Apple has brought upon its customers. Kudos to you. But the problem is, most of the time, in some devices, your solution doesn't work because the NONE option is not there. The same goes for me.
    Meanwhile, I found a temporary workaround for the iPhone 4s, iPad 2 and iPod Touch 4th Gen.
    Register a free Apple ID from the iCloud Settings.
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Account>Tap Payment Information on the Storage Plan Category.
    Fill in the other boxes and choose "None" on Credit Card Information.
    That's it! Hope I helped those who still couldn't find the "None" Option.
    Must be running IOS 5.0.1 though, else there would be no iCloud.

    I would like to buy a few bits when in America. Can I buy online with a uk credit card?

    I am traveling with work and will be most likely be unable to get to an apple store but would like to order to have delivered to my hotel. Is this possible or do I need to go to a shop and if so am I able to order to collect so that I know they have what I want?

  • HT1918 how can i setup  my account without a credit card

    how can i setup  my account without a credit card

    Thanks SniperKat but I don't know why for some reason the "NONE" disappeared...
    I started to create an account and when I saw the credit card thing I just clicked back and back and so I closed the browser... every free app or something free I get it appears a window : " You have to review some of your information about your account" .... but I don't have an account yet because I didn't create it.... the only solution is to create a new e-mail account and go to iTunes store and create a new account with the new e-mail and be very carefull with the "Free app" this time...

  • Can I buy online with a mexican credit card, and pick up my order in store days later?

    Hello,
    I live in Mexico, and i will be in San Diego for vacations next week.
    I would like to buy some things from the apple store online with my mexican credit card,
    so, i need to know if i can buy from here in Mexico with my credit card, and then when i arrive
    to San Diego CA. i can pick-up my order in the Fashion valley Apple Store.
    Can i do it this way? Thank you so much for your help. I will be waiting your answer.
    Greetings,
    Vanessa.

    No. A Mexican credit card will not be accepted in a US store. Even if you place your order in the Mexican online store, the order cannot ship to the US. If your permanent residence is in Mexico, then buy in Mexico where your warranties are honored.

  • Unauthorized transactions on iTunes with my old credit card

    Hi,
    I just found from my credit card statements many unauthorized transactions with iTunes purchases. Some of these transactions even repeat on consecutive or same days. I have in fact changed not to use this credit with my Apple account many months ago and can't understand why and how it happens.
    Please help to stop this immediately and advise how to revert these unauthrized transactions.
    Thanks!
    YF Li

  • I am in Greece on vacation. Why can't I pay with a USA credit card account?

    I am in Greece on vacation and want to purchase a PDF pac to use here and at home. However the site will not allow me to use a USA credit card account. Why is this? And is there a way around  it?

    Hi ronhermes,
    I hope you're having a lovely vacation!
    I think it may just be a matter of completing your our purchase through the US Adobe Store (not the Adobe Store in Greece). For more information, see "Are there any workarounds?" in this document.
    Best,
