Why can't I use my apple gift card to subscrib to imatch?

You can't use iTunes gift cards to register into iTunes Match because it's a yearly suscription, so Apple needs the credit card to charge it in case you don't have enough money on gift cards

  • Why can't I use my Apple gift card for app purchases?

    Why can't I use my Apple gift card for app purchases? The Apple store sells iTunes gift cards, but I can't buy one with the remaining balance on my gift card.... Why won't you let me buy what I want to buy?
    Terrible policy.....

    No idea.
    Have you tried?
    What happened?
    Have you called and asked?

  • Why Can't I use an Apple Gift card to buy an ipad!?!

    So, I received an apple gift card for graduation from college. It was $500 and I wanted to use to buy an iPad.
    The person at the apple store said I was not allowed to use a gift card to pay for more than %50 of an iPad.
    My question is...WHY? They got their money when someone purchased the gift card, what does it matter?
    I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, or knows why this is apple's policy. It just doesn't seem to make sense to me.

    That is a very, very big assumption.
    Apple could simply check the gift card and see if the purchase of that card was valid. They would have to Do that anyway to verify the amount on it anyway.
    Not wanting to pony up the cash could be a sign of naughtiness.
    I have a gift card and want to use it so that is a sign of naughtiness?
    If i got a gift card and could not use it, I would be beyond ticked off! It' s valid or it isn't.
    Nothing here -> says anything about a limitation as the op describes.

  • Why can't I use my Itunes gift card for iphoto booth purchase?

    I created a Christmas card and I thought that I could use my itune gift card since I have an apple and everything is hooked up to it and it never allowed me to enter in my gift card number.. why?

    Only Apple can answer a question like that, have you tried asking them?

  • Why can't I use my iTunes gift cards in the Apple Store or online to purchase Apple merchandise?

    I have received iTunes gift cards from people who expected that I would use them to buy Apple merchandise.  I understand that there are two different types of gift cards but it just seems intuitive that they would be interchangeable Since it all funnels back to Apple.

    Because this is how Apple has chosen to operate it's business.
    No one here would know why they made that decision and discussing Apple policies and decisions is not permitted here.

  • Why can't I use my iTunes gift card to purchase an app?

    I received a $15 itunes gift card for my birthday and I redeemed the card on iTunes. The $15 is in my account but I can't use it to purchase an app for my mac at the app store. I heard other people had problems with the itunes and app store connections too. However, my friend had purchased an app with the itunes redeemed credit. Am I stuck being able to use it only for itunes purchases? Any answers?

    Is your Apple ID one of the old ones which isn't an email address but simply a username? you can't use that to make an iCloud account.
    I'm not sure whether you can change the ID to an email address (such as a free GMail address) at http://applied.apple.com - you could try that; if you can't do that you will have to create a new Apple ID for use with iCloud. You can still use the present one for these forums and iTunes.

    You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

  • How can my child use an iTunes gift card to purchase apps instead of using my credit card?

    My daughter (under 13 years of age) just redeemed her iTunes gift card she got for christmas, but there is seems to be no way she can pay with this in App Store. Can this be true? App Store says that her credit is 15 $ but my credit card is used for payments all the time...
    And yes, we use Family Sharing - and yes my credit card works. But it is just no good that my credit card is being used when she has credit of her own (it was actually the point of giving her the gift card...).
    Any solutions would be fantastic!     

    I can't seem to figure out how to redeem it in the iTunes store?
    You can't directly.
