I received a gift card I wanted to know if I could use it to purchase apps for my iPhone or pad? If so what steps do I take?

Yes, make an account first, and then redeem it.

  • HT3702 Can I use iTunes gift cards to purchase accessories from the apple store

    I got a lot of iTunes cards for my birthday and I was wondering if I could use those credits in the apple store.

    No, you can only use them in iTunes store, the App Store, ibookstore, and the Mac App Store, they can't be used in Apple stores (including online) to buy hardware.

    Does any balance show on your account ? My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iOS devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Store and it should show on the screen that you are taken to).
    You can check your account's purchase history via your computer's iTunes : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store
    If this is the first time that you've tried to download anything from the store, then unless you followed the instructions on this page when creating your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you are getting a message to review your account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054

    Is it possible to use a 'prezzy card' to purchase apps?

    According to this FAQ article, you can use it to make purchases in iTunes, so if you are purchasing an iOS App, then it appears that the answer is "Yes":

  • HT5035 Can I use my gift cards to purchase items needed in games?

    Can I use gift cards to purchase items needed in games? I put $60.00 in my account, and charges are still coming off my credit card

    Apple Gift Cards only work with Apple Store so yes it is possible. You would add it to your payment options when the preorder becomes available Friday.
    However, if it is iTunes Gift Card, then no, it would only work with iTunes Store.

    I received an apple gift card for my birthday, and was wondering whether it was possible to use it for upgrading my already downloaded apps in order to unlock their paid features. Is there some special way I need to go about this so that I don't lose my existing content? Thanks.

    When you redeem an iTunes gift card it is simply added as credit to the Apple ID of your choice. Once it is on the account as credit it can be used for anything you can purchase with your Apple ID (apps, music, movies, rentals... Anything ).

    Yes. Click the Redeem button and enter the card's code, which will credit the card's value to the selected iTunes account. The credit added to the account can be used for Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books, Apps, etc.

  • Can i use maestro debit card to purchase apps

    plz help

    I understand that debit cards are no longer accepted.  
    But Maestro have a credit card and that would probably be accepted.   Go to App store > Store > Sign in > Go to Edit payment details ... and that will show you what credit cards are accepted in your country.   Always assuming you already have an account, you could then edit your payment details to meet a change of card.

  • How can I use my gift card, issued to me in the US, if I am currently in the Philippines?

    Hi,
    I bought my mac pro (first time owner) last July in New Jersey, U.S.A., and with this, I was given gift cards with the said purchase.  I am currently in the Philippines and will be here until late next year, and would like to use the gift cards to purchase apps in the app store.  Unfortunately, I was informed that I can only use it if I go back to the U.S., since the address I indicated in the purchase is my address there.
    Is it possible for me to use them here in the Philippines, because my next trip to the U.S. is still undetermined.  I can provide other needed info should it be required.
    Thanks and hope to hear a positive reply from you really soon.
    Regards,

    Wacks Mendez-
    The Apple support community is a User to User forum. Apple makes no promise to read these postings, and NEVER responds here.
    I guess there are not a lot of readers from the Phillipines who can answer your question.
    You should try contacting the support numbers for the Phillipines and ask them if there is anything you can do.

  • Can't use a gift card to buy osx lion

    Today I went 30 miles to go to an Apple store only to find out that they DO NOT sell OS X Lion in stores, it is for download only!   I was told I must purchase OS X Lion from the App Store.  So I logged onto the App Store and attempted to purchase OS X Lion with an "Apple" give card which I verified has $80 on it.  The App Store would not accept the card, according to what I read I'm unable to use a gift card to purchase from the App Store!   I can't buy it in the store and I can't buy it online.   So how do I use my gift card to buy anything?
    .... Gary Cox

    I have people all the time buying me "Apple gift cards" thinking I can buy "Apple" products from "Apple".   How is it my fault that "Apple" puts some odd rule on it that I can't use it like "cash" to buy whatever I want from them?  If you go to Walmart with a "Walmart Gift Card" are you restricted to buying only a "Walmart brand product?" or perhas you can only use the "Walmart Gift Card" at a "Walmart" store only in the city in which it was bought? 
    A brand of "gift card" has a consumer expectation to allow use at that brand's stores, including online, unless it was some sort of special promotion.  If you buy a "Visa" gift card, it's excpected to be the same as "cash" anywhere "Visa" is accepted.  If you buy an "Apple" gift card it is expected to be accepted at any "Apple" branded "store". 
    So why would you want to buy an "Apple" gift card?   I will certainly tell people not to buy me Apple gift cards any more.   I'd rather have a "visa" gift card where I can use it elsewhere or perhaps a "walmart" gift card.
    I will be glad to send you the Apple gift card.   However, according to my terms of shipment I must first ask for $30 shipping, $20 handling, $20 processing and $20 transfer fee.  Thus you owe me $90 for the card.  That's just the rules, it's not my fault that those are the rules.   Now you can save all the fee's and just come by and pick it up but I don't have the card with me, you can only obtain the card online. 
    However, thank you for clarification on the use of "Apple gift cards".  I will know from now on to tell people to no longer buy "Apple gift cards" as you can't use them to buy but a certain set of "Apple" products unlike what you would normally expect from a company branded gift card.
    So can I buy an Itunes gift card with my "Apple Gift Card"?
