I have an itunes gift card balance on my account however I want to use my credit card to pay for songs. It automatically uses my balance and doensn't give me the option of using my credit card. In detail how do I change it or must I use my balance first?

I have an itunes gift card balance on my account however I would rather use my credit card to pay for my music downloads. I cannot find an option to choose credit card over my balance, it just automatically uses my gift card balance instead. Is there a way to change this? I have gone to account settings but cannot find a way to do this. Does anyone have any detailed information on how this could be achieved? Is it even possible? Thanks so much in advance!

Sorry, but there's no way to force the iTunes Store to use your credit card. If there's a credit balance available, purchases will be deducted from that first.

Sorry, but it's quite possible that you can't. If there's an Apple Store in the country to which you want to give the gift, you can call them ask ask if they'll accept a Canadian credit card for a gift card purchase to be shipped to an address in the relative's country. If they won't, then you'd have to find an independent reseller in that country that carries iTunes gift cards who could accept your credit card, and there may be none.

These are user to user forums, you are not speaking to Apple here.
I would advise that you review your purchase history:

I have a itunes gift card with an unreadable "scratch off" code. Does anyone know the email address I should send the front and back photo of the card to; so they can send me the code for the card?

If you can't redeem your iTunes Gift Card or code.

My girlfriend gave me a $25 iTunes gift card for Christmas, so I switched to the Canada store and spend most of it with .02¢ remaining. *Now I want to switch back to my original store, but I can't.

My friend gave me a $25 iTunes gift card for Christmas, so I switched to the US store and spend most of it with 11¢ remaining. *Now I want to switch back to my original store, but I can't. iTunes keeps saying "You have a store credit balance; you must spend your balance before you can change stores.*

You might just have to contact Apple and ask them to remove it (losing it). Usually people clear a balance by buying one song and having the exact remainder charged to their credit card, but if you don't have a US credit card you cannot do that.

I have an iTunes gift card and I have redeemed it. However, I am unable to purchase things from the iTunes Store. How do I purchase an app with my gift card?

Very very likely that tax is applicable and tax is more than $0.01. You need to add a payment method for the tax. If you add a credit card, the girft card balance will be used up first.

How do you use an iTunes gift card for in-app purchases?

My kids received iTunes gift cards for christmas and want to use the $$ towards in-app purchases in Clash of Clans. We've already redeemed the cards to their iTunes accounts. Now they want to use them within the app.
How do they do this? If they try to purchase something it seems to just go against a credit card, and not give them the option to use the iTunes credit.
Please help!
Thanks,

I entered the code and applied to my apple account, so I assume I already have the credit. When I tried to make an in-app purchase, it asked me for my password again.
How do I know if the in-app purchase is deducting from the redeem credits or from my credit cards.
Also, is it possible to check the remaining balance of the iTunes gift card? This is the 1st time I deal with apple gift card... Quite confusing...
Please kindly advise.
Thank you for your attention.
Purchases are always deducted from the credits first. Look at the menu bar at the top for remaining credit. My credit is $23.59.

HT201209 Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use?

Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use? I have a brother that lives in Vietnam and I want to buy him a gift card that he can use there. I've read the iTunes gift cards are country specific.

What you have read is correct; gift cards are country specific. So only if iTunes cards are issued in Vietnam, and if they are if you can find a retailer there that sells such cards and would accept an out-of-country credit card, would you be able to purchase a gift card for your brother. The same would apply to any other country.

i have a itunes gift card how can i find the balance on my card?

If the value of the card isn't printed on it and you don't have the purchase receipt, the only way to determine the value of the card is by redeeming it. If you have already redeemed it, then the card is now valueless. The credit balance is carried in your iTunes Store account and will be displayed in iTunes next to your Apple ID when you're signed into the iTunes Store, or on an iOS device at the bottom of the screen in the App Store or iTunes Store apps.

I have 6p from a gift card left in the English store and can't spend it. I want to change to the Irish store as I have an Irish gift card for me to redeem but it won't let me change store. Also I don't want to use a credit card for the last 6p.

Issue redeeming a US iTunes gift card for Australia registered account

I received a US iTunes gift card for Christmas but currently have my apple ID registered in Australia. I tried to switch my iTunes store registration from Australia to the US to redeem my gift card, but am unable to do so because iTunes says "you still have rentals that have not expired". How do I delete the rental record so I can switch the country and redeem my gift card? Thanks

You can ONLY use the itunes store of your country of residence AND ONLY while you are physically located inside the borders of that country.
Are you in the U.S?
Do you have a valid U.S billing address on your credit card?
