I can't make a payment with itunes gift card

I purchased a $15.00 and redeem it. When I tried to buy a game, it kept taking me to payment information and wont let use the redeem money.

What message(s) do you see on screen when trying to buy the game, and how/when was the account created ?
If this is the first time that you've tried to download something then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store. You should be able to remove your card's details after entering them. Asking for card details is a way of checking that you have a valid billing address in that country.
If you are getting a prompt to review the 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

  • Can you buy a ipod with itunes gift cards

    I found some guift cards on ebay and they have like $75 for $50 so i was wondering if i could buy a ipod with gift cards

    Careful of those gift cards on ebay. I know a guy that bought a $100 gift card from ebay for $75 and after he entered the code in his iTunes account, he got a note from Apple saying the purchase of the gift card was reported by the credit card company as a fraudulent purchase, so he lost the credit and was out the $75 + shipping he paid the ebay seller.
    If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

  • Paying iTunes Match with iTunes Gifts Card

    I have US iTunes Store account which I open a few years ago while I was living in US. I am now working overseas (Singapore) the past year and do not have US credit Card anymore as I have applied for the local Credit Cards in Singapore. I buy my stuff from Itunes Stores using "iTunes Gift Cards" instead.
    Now that I want to pay for the US$24.99 for iTunes Match using my iTunes Gift Cards but it prompted me for a US credit card before I could subcribed. Why can"t Apple accept payment by iTunes Gift card? I have no problem subscribing to MOBILE ME using my local credit card.
    I hope Apple will do something for US citizen

    Hello, MirriamMon.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand you are unable to purchase items from the iTunes Store as it  is requiring your old credit card information.  You can try and change your payment method to none and see if it will allow you to make a purchase using your gift car.  However, if there are any outstanding balances, you will be required to enter credit or debit card information before you can make purchases.  
    Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?
    Cheers, 
    Jason H.  

  • Not able to sign up for iTunes Match with iTunes Gift Card

    Last night I purchased $30.00 worth of iTunes Gift cards , redeemed the cards against my iTunes account and attempted to sign up for the iTunes Match ($24.99 per year) only to find out that I must provide a credit card on file before they will allow me to sign up.  I never imaged that Apple would require a credit card on file. One of the reasons that I chose Apple products was the ability to purchase with iTunes Gift cards to reduce my risk of fraud when the account become compromised . 
    Also I have Apple IDs for each of my children and they receive  iTunes Gift cards as presents that they purchase Apps, Music etc that they want.  That way when they grow up and leave home they have their own Apple accounts to take with them.  Apple should want life long Apple customers!!   Just to let you know 14 year olds don’t normally have credit cards and I would never put my Credit Card info attached to their account. So if they own a Laptop, iPhone and iPad they are discriminated from using your iTunes Match because they don’t have a credit card?  Really????
    Apple to just let you know that I have a Microsoft XBOX Live membership that I purchase a Live gift card once a year to renew my subscription.  I can’t believe that Microsoft can figure out how to provide customers a better user experience that Apple.    
    Please fix this quickly as I would like to use your iTunes Match and other iCloud services that you plan on releasing later this year however I will not be using my credit card so I may have to look for other device options.   If you need any help figuring out how to meet your business requirements please let me know as I would be glad to provide suggestions.
    Thank you,
    The Next Steve Jobs
    PS  If any one over there knows a way around this please let me know. 

    I've been through the same ordeal. I wanted to renew my iTunes Match service, had over $100 credit in the iTunes Store, but wasn't able to use that credit to pay for the renewal. Apple requires you have a valid, working credit card on file to renew for some reason. But once you put in a credit card, the charge is actually taken from your store credit, not the credit card. So, it's very odd and doesn't make any sense to me, either. But there's no way around it without a credit card, that's what Apple Support told me when I contacted them about this same issue.

  • Will your credit card be charged if you make a purchase with a gift card

    will your credit card be charged if you make a purchase with a gift card?

    Sandy has it right, when possible gift cards are used before credit cards. For more information about gift crads can be found in iTunes Store: How to redeem an iTunes Gift Card.
    When you buy individual songs from the iTunes Store:
    Free song credits are redeemed first.
    If you have no free song credits, gift certificate, prepaid card, and allowance credits are used next.
    If your gift certificate, prepaid card, and/or allowance credit is less than the total cost of the purchase, your credit card is billed for the remaining balance.
    If you have no free song credits or gift certificates, prepaid cards, or allowance credits, your credit card is billed for the songs you buy.
    When you buy an album on the iTunes Store:
    Gift certificate, prepaid card, and allowance credits are used first.
    If your gift certificate, prepaid card, and/or allowance credit is less than the total cost of the purchase, your credit card is billed for the remaining balance. Note: Free song credits cannot be used for album purchases.
    If you have no gift certificates, prepaid cards, or allowance credits, your credit card is billed for the albums you buy.
    It's been a while sense I used a gift card; but from what I remember, when you have credits from a card. There was a little bar that displayed my current balance.  For instance, when I added the gift card, The balance showed as +20.00, i bough a song, the balanced changed to +19.01.
    PS question about itunes should be posted in the iTunes community.

  • How can I change the email my itunes Gift Card was sent to?

    I'm very frustrated.
    I called your support, the gentleman that helped me talked so fast I couldn't understand him. I asked him to repeat it he said it the same speed, couldn't understand him. Anyways, he went on to tell me that anything to do with iTunes gift cards are all automated online, but said he couldn't direct me because he didn't have the website up infront of him at that time. Poor customer support.
    I love apple, but that was disappointing.
    PROBLEM: I sent a giftcard to the wrong email address I mistyped and missed a letter in the address. I need to resend it to the correct email. How can I do this?
    Thanks in advance.

    No. You can see when you buy something in App Store, but not when you loaded a gift card

  • Purchase ipod with iTunes gift card

    is it possible to purchase iPods or accessories with itunes gift cards? Thanks.

    No, terms of use for gift cards clearly state that they can only be used for the purchase of content from the store, such as movies, music, games, etc.

    I recently purchased tunes with iTunes gift card.  I still have $ left on my card and now I'm asked to verify my account. Why is this necessary?

    Because iTunes simply wants you to verify your name & address is correct in your account info.
