Can you use the itunes gift card to pay for apps, too?

Can you use the itunes gift card to pay for apps, too? I can only seem to make it work for movies, music, and shows. Do I need an apple gift card to get the apps? Thanks!

  • Once credit card is billed for purchase, can I use an iTunes gift card to pay for it instead?

    I have made a purchase wanting to use solely iTunes gift cards. However I did not account for the local taxes, and it exceeded the amount of gift card credits I had. Now my credit card has been charged, though I do not want to use it for various reasons.
    Can I pay the balance using another gift card instead?

    If your account's balance didn't cover the total purchase price then the extra amount over your balance will have been charged to your credit card - it's too late after purchasing the item to change how you paid for it. You can try contacting iTunes Support, but they are probably unlikely to change how you paid for it : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    If you don't want your credit card to potentially be charged for purchases then you could remove it from your account :
    Changing payment details : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    If you don't get the 'none' option to be able to remove your card : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information

  • (How ) Can I use an iTunes gift card to pay for an iPhoto book?

    I don't see a way to do this when I click on "buy book" - only gives paying via credit card as an option.
    There is a spot to click "promo code". Is there a promo code I can use to lower the price?
    Thanks.

    No - you need a credit or debit card
    No - there are no promo codes currently

  • HT201209 Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase something actually in an app? (Like buy coins in the app and use your gift card)

    Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase things actually in an app? (Buy "coins" using the gift card?)

    No idea, but it seems like you should be able to. You can give it a try, but will have to figure out some way around the automatic 1-click ordering that the App Store now does by default.
    It certainly seems like something deserving of a feedback form submission, though ...

  • Can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts?

    can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts? on two different computers?

    A Gift card will add a specified amount of mony to an iTunes account identified with a specific Apple ID (email address and password combination).
    If that Account is set up on both Devices, then they will share the money balance in that account. And can purchase things in the store with that balance.

  • Can you use an itunes gift card to purchase ibooks?

    Can you use an itunes gift card to purchase ibooks on your iphone? If yes, how? When I attempt to purchase a book it automatically appears that it will automatically charge my stored card.
    Thanks!

    To use an iTune Gift Card to buy books...
    Open iTunes on your computer and click on the iTunes Store.
    You'll need to be signed in...
    Click on the little House icon in the dark gray bar across the top. (or Shift+Command+H)
    On the right side of the page under Quick Links click Redeem and enter your code.
    Then it will show your credit balance in the dark gray bar across the top next to your account name to let you know how much you have to spend.
    Then as you buy books, it'll deduct from the credit balanace.
    There is a distinction between, iTunes Gift Card and Apple Gift Card.
    Apple Gift Card: can be used to purchase Apple hardware and accessories at any Apple Retail Store, the Apple Online Store...
    iTunes Gift Card: To give music, movies, TV shows, apps, books, or anything on the iTunes Store, the App Store, the iBooks Store or the Mac App Store, select an iTunes Gift Card

    But now I am at another country, not in SG, That country don't have any credit card systems, so they just only used the iTunes Gift Cards, registering as U.S. When I brought that cards and redeem in my account that showed me "Your iTunes Store (Singapore) does not match that of the gift certificate (United States)" like this. So, how can i do to redeem in my acount, Can anybody give me advises? I tried to change my informations and billing information (with U.S address) at my iTunes account but it showed me "Please contact iTunes support to complete this transaction". So, please give me some ways to buy the softwares and others in iTunes with gift cards.
    Warmest Regards,
    Daniel.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, you can only use the gift card in the location it was purchased and with the iTunes store in that location.

  • Can you use one itunes gift card for multiple app stores?

    if i had one gift card and used only $10 of it, can i give the balance to a friend?

    No. To use the iTunes gift card you redeem the card, which puts the entire balance of the card as a credit for you to use on your account.

  • Can I use the itune gift card to redeem credits in US appstore to buy in-app staff which is from appstore in other country?

    Why can't I use an iTunes gift card in Canada to purchase apps for my iTouch?
    Inquiries to the iTunes Store have yielded only the following explanation:
    "Due to tax laws and commerce restrictions for software in Canada, customers residing in Canada may only purchase games and applications using a credit card."
    What these "laws/restrictions" might be have never been identified.
    Can I somehow exchange the giftcards that I have for App gift cards?
    There are no "app gift cards". Again, you can only use a credit card to purchase software in the Canadian iTunes Store.
    Problem is I don't have a credit card to purchase the apps.
    Perhaps you could obtain one of the "prepaid" credit cards some banks offer. If not, then the only way you'll be able to buy apps is to get someone to allow you to use their credit card.
