How do I use my gift card instead of my credit card?

I have always used gift cards to buy my music off of Itunes, but when I recently used it I only had 25 cents left. So when I clicked on the music to buy it, it showed me all of my account information and asked for the security number to the credit card that I have listed under my account. But my parents didn't want me using their credit card, so my mom bought me some more gift cards. I redeemed the money on the cards, but for whatever reason it still takes me to the "Billing Info" and asks for the security number, even though I have money already in my account from the gift cards. Until then, I am unable to purchase any new music. How do I switch back to using my gift cards and not the credit card?

It is a security measure that has been implemented in iTunes.
When it asks for the security info on the CC, make sure to uncheck *Do not use this card for this purchase* (or something similar).
It will then use the gift card for the purchase.

Can I use a gift card to pay of my credit card balance? I bought a song off iTunes and I forgot to redeem my gift card before doing so.

Hi everyone,
As you can tell from the topic of the discussion, I was just wondeirng if there's any way to use a gift card to pay off a credit card balance?
It's not a huge problem as I only bought one song, lol, but it'd be nice to know if I can use my gift card to pay off the balance. I forgot to redeem my gift card before purchasing >_<. Smart I know. So please, if some one knows the answer to reply back. Thanks!

Is there any way I can do it without using a credit card? Even if I can go somewhere to get it done?

I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded. How do I use the gift card?

I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner of my account but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded previously. How do I use the gift card?

If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

How do i use my gift card balance to pay for a purchase?

I redeemed my gift card and it shows the balance by my name in the top right hand corner but when I select a song to purchase, it wants me to enter my security code on my credit card instead of using the gift card balance.

This is how itunes verifies your account.

I am a US citizen in school in Montreal and I was given a US Apple Store gift card. How can I buy the new iPad using my gift card and with a school discount?

I am a grad student from NYC and at a university in Montreal. I was given a 500$ gift card as a gift to put towards a new ipad. BUT, I apparently cannot use the US gift card in Canada. So, what do I do? I have no time to head back to NYC to get it. I want to order it, but not sure they will ship to montreal...? And was thinking of sending it back to my parents and then have them buy it and mail it to me, but I I think them having to pay tax on this is ridiculous. On top of that, I should be able to garner the ed discount but I dont think the US recognizes Canadian schools in their system and visa versa. SO if I do buy it in the US, I can use my gift card but I can't get the discount. Or if I buy it here in MTL, I can get the discount but I cannot use the gift card..
Can anyone suggest a solution? all bright ideas welcome.

You can only use a gift card in the country it was issued in - no way around that as the Apple Store does NOT offer currency exchange with gift cards.
Nor can you order from the USA online store and ship to any address outside of the USA - again, no way around that as the online stores do NOT ship internationally.
You could send the gift card back to someone in the USA, to use to purchase your item for you, and then once they receive it, they could ship it to you. Canada customs will hold it until they collect any import fees and taxes levied on imported consumer electronics though.
Either that or buy it in Canada with the discount, and use the card later when you get home again.

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.

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.

HT6006 How do I make an in app purchase using a gift card?

My son registered a gift card he received for $15 on my itunes account. He wants to use this money to make in-app purchases for one of his games. He was purchasing coins or something, but the process went to my account, but didn't take money from the balance of the card. I am guessing I need to change a setting, but it didn't give an option to do so. How do I go about using the gift card? The balance shows on my computer when the account is open, so I know he did it correctly, we just don't know how to spend it!

No, in-app purchase can only be done using the app.

HT2105 I have an itunes gift card, then found out that I can not use it with my KOBO Ereader. I was wondering if I could let someone else in my family use the balance of my gift card? They have an IPad and they often use Itune Gift Cards to purchase mov

I was given an itunes gift card, then found out that my KOBO Ereader will not accept the itunes gift card. I now have this gift card with a balance on it and would like to give it to my brother (he has an IPAD and uses Itune gift cards all the time). If he was to use my gift card (with my password) would the movie or book that he purchase show up on his devise or would it show up on mine. Thanks for all the help

I'm not sure what you mean. Did you redeem the gift card to your iTunes Store account? If not, just give your brother the gift card and he can redeem it in his own iTunes Store account. If you did redeem the card, then there's no way to transfer the balance from your iTunes Store account to his. He'd have to use your iTunes Store account to make the purchases and sync to his devices.
Regards.
