How to purchase gift card for a different country location?

I am travelling. My US bank account was closed so I have no current USA credit or debit card. I need to purchase US iTunes store products. How can I gift myself an iTunes gift card?

Buy a gift card from store and put it in. Or create a new Apple ID with no payment method. But don't use the iTunes sign up to do it. Use the icloud Apple ID creator then you don't have to put in a credit card!!

Gift Card for kid living in the US / I'm in Canada

I can't believe how hard this is. I wish to buy a gift card that my kid can use in the US, but I live in Canada, Sure I can buy a gift card from teh apple store - but they want to SHIP IT! arrgh! Can't we just email the certificate? Where do I put his email in? Am I really having to ask this question? no FAQ? UI is so bad that this is not easy?
I also know that I have to use my Canadian credit card, but I have to purchase a US based gift card.
Really? HELP!

Sorry, but there's no way you can purchase a gift certificate for someone in another country. You can only buy a gift from the Canadian iTunes Store, and those gifts are not valid for someone living in the US. It does say that in the screen where you purchase the gift, by the way.
And I know of no way for you to purchase a US iTunes prepaid card using an Canadian credit card, though it's possible some independent reseller would be willing to accept a Canadian card. The prepaid card would have to be shipped, though.

Can I 'gift' to someone in another country?

Hi Folks,
I am based in Australia and have finally got my mum in the UK using iTunes. I 'gifted' her an audio book, but when she tried to claim it was told that it wasn't valid because it was bought in another country. Does anyone know if there is any legitimate and simple way I can gift things to someone in another country? I tried changing the country setting already, and setting up a new (supposedly UK) account, but I don't have a UK credit card so that way was blown. I can understand why there might be complex legal reasons why I can't gift her something from the Australian store, but it seems a shame that I can't gift her anything even from the UK store. Is that definitely the case?
Thanks to anyone for any help they can give me.

I believe that it's possible to buy her a Gift Card from the UK Store's website. That way she will be able to exchange it for something locally.
It's a nuisance I know but it's all for copyright and other legal reasons.

HT1541 I live in Canada and have a Canadian iTunes account. How can I purchase an iTunes gift card for a relative who lives in another country?

I live in Canada and have a Canadian iTunes account. How can I buy an iTunes gift card for a relative who lives in another country?

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.

I want to give iTunes as a gift to someone in another country, how do I do this?

You cannot. iTunes' gifts may only be purchased and redeemed in the same country where it was purchased.

HT5557 Is there a way to purchase itunes books for someone else as a gift (Christmas) and give them the codes without automatically downloading the purchase for me? Or is an itunes giftcard the only way to go?

TV shows will only appear in the cloud if you are in a country where they can be re-downloaded from the store (you can't add them yourself), in which case they will appear in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app for re-downloading. But they will only appear there if you are in a country where they can be re-downloaded, and then only as long as the TV company leaves them in the store (content providers occasionally remove their items).

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.

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.

HT201209 We have a gift card for iTunes that was purchased in the United States and we live in Canada and iTunes won't allow us to redeem it. Is there any way we can exchange it?

We have a gift card for iTunes that was purchased in the United States and we live in Canada and iTunes won't allow us to redeem it. Is there any way we can exchange it?

Sorry, but as KP guessed, Apple will not exchange the card, and you are correct that you can't use a US iTunes card in Canada. You will need to give or sell it to someone in the US.

I USE GIFT CARDS FOR PURCHASES(VISA, MC) NOW I CAN'T MAKE A PURCHASE. THEY SAY I HAVE TOO MANY CREDIT CARDS ON FILE

They say I have too many credit cards on file for my username- purchase cancelled. I use gift cards for gaming purchases (Visa,MC) so I have used a few, but its a gift card.

This is most likely a security precaution since they probably assume that someone using multiple credit cards over a short period of time may well have stolen them. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store and request assistance.
Regards.
