HT4913 No US credit card - Can I use gift cards?
I live in the Caribbean and I don't have a US credit card, but I have several US iTunes cards. How can I use them for iTunes match?
Yes, they do. I'm looking at it right now. They don't offer anything other than apps, podcasts and the iTunes U, though.
Regardless, again, you are not allowed to use the US iTunes Store from outside of the US. You'll have to purchase your music via some other resource, and will not be able to use iTunes Match (which would be available only if Apple had agreements to sell music in the CI).
Regards.

Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.
I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.

I downloaded songs to my playlist before entering two gift card credit numbers. I thought I would have an opportunity to put them in before end of transaction. Can I undo the charge and use the $20 gift card total?
Probably not. You can go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store and ask, but my guess is that they'll say that it's not possible to reverse the charge to your credit card and charge your now-present credit balance instead.

Can I use gift card with iTunes to buy additional iCloud storage on my ipad2
I need to purchase additional iCloud storage. My question is I have a couple gift cards with iTunes. Can I use one or both gift cards to buy this additional storage? Thank you. I await a response.
According to Apple, payment methods accepted include iTunes store credit, credit cards, and debit cards. Presumably this means that if you redeem the gift card to create an iTunes store credit, the upgrade would be charged against this credit. If you want to confirm this, call the Apple online store at the number shown at the bottom of this page.

"sign in required" error. Can't use gift cards!
I am unable to redeem gift cards, even when signed in, on any of my devices! I get a repeated request to sign in...over and over and over. How can I stop this and use my gift card? Thanks!
In order to have an account in an iTunes Store, you need to have 1)a valid billing address in that country, 2)have a credit card billed to that address or an iTunes gift card purchased in that country and 3)you need to be physically located in that country.
So, you have two problems. According to the Terms of Sale, you can't use your Canadian account when you are in Costa Rica. And, if you open an account in Costa Rica, cards bought in Canada wont't work. You'd need to buy gift cards in Costa Rica. -

How can I use gift card balance that is on one account, on another account?
I have 2 iTunes accounts. I have money on one of the email accounts, but most of my apps are under the other email account , so I can't use my gift card money on my apps. How do I combine these, or how am I able to use my gift card balance on the other account?

Previous purchases pending on declined card, can I use gift card?
When I want to buy something on the US iTunes store, it says that my credit card (VISA gift card) was declined and there's a previous purchase still pending on it. Can I "clear out" this previous purchase by just redeeming a regular iTunes Gift Card?
You need to provide a lot more detail before we can even guess what's going wrong. For starters, you need to tell us what device you're trying to buy from, versions of software, the country you're in, etc. Otherwise we have nothing on which to make a diagnosis and offer suggestions.

I got a gift card for my birthday from my aunt who lives in France, now I get a message that my iTunes Store is Dutch and the gift card is Frensh so I can't use it!? What can I do?
Yes, I thought of that one too, but hoped that there was a way to use the frensh one.
Luckily, I do know someone who is interested in buying it from me (just called them)
So I can buy a new one here in the Netherlands.
Thank you for your answer. -
Can I use gift cards with certificat​es?
I have a $10 certificate and I was wondering if I can use a gift card I'll get from trading in games towards my purchase ?
Hi again angelo324,
It looks like NoseToNose has things pretty well covered here, but to clarify: you can indeed use both your My Best Buy reward certificate and trade-in gift card on the same transaction. For full details on how to earn and redeem certificates, make sure to check out our My Best Buy program FAQ.
Let us know if you have any other questions!

Can I use gift cards to pay for songs purchased on my iphone?
Can I pay for songs purchased on my iphone with gift cards?
Yes. Open the iTunes app. Go to the bottom of the New Releases screen and tap Redeem. You will be able to enter the codes from your iTunes gift cards. Music and app purchases will be deducted from gift cards before your credit card.

HT2736 if i have a credit why can't I gift something?
I have a credit, why can't I use that credit to gift someone?
Gift balances cannot be used to buy other gifts. Apple has not said why, only that it is not allowed.

Can't use Gift Card Apple ID to set up allowance
I'm trying to set up a monthly allowance for my daughter. She already has an Apple ID (just a nickname, not an e-mail address) from using a gift card, but when I try to enter that in the allowance form, it tells me it's not an existing AID. However, I am able to log into her account using that ID.
Am I missing something? Or do I just need to create a new account using her e-mail address and scrap the other?
If so, what happens to her balance of less than 99¢ from her card? Do I resign myself to donating that to Steve's kids? Obviously not a big deal, but if every gift card recipient goes through this, Apple's keeping a lot of money that belongs to someone else.
Thanks in advance,
Rick

Can't use gift card without the actual card?
I have 65.00 left from a gift card thatI received at Christmas, entered it and threw away since I already put in the code and had a balance but now it wants my card code to be able to redeem the rest of the card. How do I get to use my 65.00 that shows up when I open the store.
Problem is solved. Thank you
