Purchased with Gift Card

My credit card linked to my itunes account. I want to purchase some songs but want to use my gift card and not my credit card. Is there an option to use an alternative source for payment?
Thank you.

The gift card will automatically be used first unless you're purchasing a gift for someone else, which can only be paid for from the credit card.

  • HT4009 In-app purchase with gift card balance

    I have an iTunes gift card balance on my iTunes account.  When I attempt to make an in-app purchase, it does not process at all and instead directs me to view iTunes Store Support to complete this transaction.  Can anybody help with this issue?

  • Cannot play songs purchased with gift card (on my iPod on)

    I just purchased the King Kong soundtrack on iTunes with a gift card I received for Christmas. I downloaded the songs onto my laptop and transferred them to my iPod (video, 60 GB). When I try to play the songs on my iPod, they will just be skipped over to the next track. (I can play them off my iPod when it's attached to my laptop, or my G4 tower at home, which is also Authorized).
    I've purchased other songs with my account in the past and they play fine. I checked the song info. in iTunes and the account information is identical to the other purchases. The only difference seems to be these were purchased with the gift card (which the file info. doesn't indicate).
    What do I need to do? Thank you brilliant folks out there.

    Alas, did not work. Tried playing a few songs in iTunes, copied those songs over to the iPod, no dice.
    I manually manage my songs on iPod, so I'm hesitant to just auto-sync and see if that would solve it, but I may try that if nothing else works...

  • Ipad mini online purchase with gift card option.

    I had bought an iPad mini from the online store recently. I had also put a gift message during the purchase, but when upon receiving the iPad mini, there is no any gift card attached. Kind of disappointed as there is no surprises by then.    

    Call the Apple Store and discuss the issue with them. We're mostly just fellow users here, and no one from the Apple Store participates in the forums.

  • Can you  buy from iTunes with gift cards rather than use a credit card?

    I have given my 17 year old nephew an ipod for his birthday and as he doesn't have a credit card can he use gift cards to buy from the iTunes store without one? Do you have to have a credit card to open an iTunes account? I wanted to give him a gift card to start him off with the iPod as he doesn't have many cd's to load on to it.

    Yes, he can create an account and make purchases with gift card.
    When he gets the gift card, have him open the iTunes store and click on Redeem at the top right under *Quick links*.
    Input the card number then select *Create new account*.
    Input the personal info and when it gets to credit card info, select None.

  • Setting up two  iPod Touches on one account with gift cards for app and in-app purchases

    I have multiple devices on one account - 2 iPod classics, one iPhone 3G and two recently acquired iPod Touches for my 8 year old boys.  They want to make in-app purchases (for Dragonville).  They each have their own gamecenter ID.  I want to set up each of them with gift cards for their purchases.  Is this possible?
    If not, what is the recommended approach to manage all devices in one place while allowing individual devices to have a seperate payment mechanism?
    Thanks.

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

    http://ipadhelp.com/ipad-help-tips-tricks/how-to-get-free-apps-from-the-app-stor e-without-a-credit-card/
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
    To make sure you only sync the media yoo want, configure iTunes syncing so that only checked media is synced to the idevices.

  • Can I purchase a gift card?

    Can I buy a gift card with a credit card? With my walmart card I tried to buy a prepaid mastercard and it wouldnt let me. Is this always true or does it depend on the merchant/cc company?  

    You can purchase gift cards with credit cards. Each merchant is different, for example: My experience ~ I went to purchase a gift card at my local Walgreens with my Citi Thank you Preferred card and it wouldn't go through. The cashier tried three times. Citi sent me a text from their fraud department to my cell phone asking me if I authorized this activity - text back one for YES or two for NO. I text back "1 - yes" and they immediately sent me a text back stating - please try again for immediate approval. Now, I was already back in my vehicle when all this was going on. So back to when I was in the store and the Citi card wouldn't go through, I immediately pulled out my BOA visa and it went right though with no issues. So again, yes, you can purchase a gift card with a credit card - but be prepared for the above to happen and have a back up credit card just in case. Hope this helps!

  • Can I Purchase iTunes Gift card for US in India

    Hello
    I want to Giveaway iTunes Gift Card to my blog readers in US. I am resident of India.
    Can I buy iTunes Gift Card(s) online with valid US postal addresse(s) of the winner (s) through my account?
    OR
    What is the best way to gift iTunes cards to US resident while I am sitting in India?
    Waiting to hear from you
    Thanks

    Sorry, but you cannot purchase iTunes gift cards from outside of the country in which they are sold by any means I know of, since such purchases generally require a US credit card. You can try contacting Apple's corporate marketing group, though, and ask if there's anything they can work out for you:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/corporatesales/
    By the way, this forum is for questions about iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with questions like this if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Regards.

  • Connection issue with Gift Card

    Hi everybody,
    I have a problem when trying to connect to iTunes Store to redeem a gift card. Whenever I push button "use code" (please apologize for translation: I'm using the italian version), I get a message saying that iTunes Store could be busy and I should verify Internet connection.
    But when I run iTunes Diagnostics everything is OK.
    The issue won't happen (I think) if I buy a song normally.
    I'm using the newest version of iTunes (7.3.1.3) and I've de-activate Widnows Firewall but the problem still occurs.
    Do you have any suggestions?
    Thank you in advance
    Riccardo

    That being said, I am sending you a private message to gather further details about the $50 gift card you seem to be having troubles with. You may check your private messages by signing into the forum and clicking the envelope icon in the top right corner of the page.

    Are you still using OSX 10.4.11? I thought the Store didn't work with Tiger.
