Why can't I use my visa debit card?

Why am I not able to use my visa debit card when setting up my apple ID?!

Not all debit cards seem to still be accepted in India e.g. Re: can i download from itunes using debit card in india ?
For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined (but you might not be able to use that debit card) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
Do you have a different debit card that you could try, or a credit card ?

  • I have been using my Visa debit card since I first got an iPhone in 2010 for my purchases/free downloads...now all of a sudden it won't even let me download free apps like Netflix. I have money on my card as well...

    As the title says, I have been using a Visa debit card since 2010 for my iTunes account. It has been used to purchase apps and free apps but now I can't download either. It says that my payment is declined. I have money on my card and my bank account shows that my apps and music purchases have been paid for. I can't even get free apps.

    Do you have enough funds in your bank account?
    otherwise iTunes sometimes black lists card if there are too many fradulent purchases
    Reason why they might black list a card is possibly you call in for alot of fradulent purchases
    One more reason can be because iTunes does actually limit the amount you can change payment methods
    Call AppleCare Phone support and have your call directed to iTunes Store

  • HT2589 May I use my Visa Debit Card for my existing Apple ID to use it in iTunes, India?

    I have an Apple ID, but when I am trying to integrate it with iTunes, using my Visa Debit Card in India, it is not processing.

    I don't think that debit cards are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined. Do you have a credit card, or is there another payment method listed, that you could use instead ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they can help, but I don't think that you will be able to use a debit card : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

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

    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

  • TS2446 If my iTunes account was shut down due to fraud activity why can I not use the same credit card if I choose to when I have no other way to pay

    When I turned in my iTunes account b/c fraud activity had been detected while my iPhone was not working so they disenabled my iTunes account but I got my new apple id back to download free games but I can't use my debit card anymore and want to use the same card as that is the only access I have as a form of payment

    You can give feed back to Apple from the iTunes drop-down menu in the iTunes menu bar..
    You can also contact the iTS Customer Service from the links on this page - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/

  • Can I buy using my friend debit card, example trying to buy clash of clans gems?

    Can anyone tell me

    iTunes doesn't accept debit cards for payment. You could use his card to go to the store and buy an itunes gift card and use that.

  • Why can't I use my ITunes gift card to buy gems on clash of clans

    Why can't I buy gems on clash of clans with my iTunes gift card that I recently bought

    This is incorrect.
    A. ITUNES STORE, MAC APP STORE, APP STORE, AND IBOOKSTORE TERMS OF SALE
    PAYMENTS, TAXES, AND REFUND POLICY
    The iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBookstore services (“Services”) accept these forms of payment: credit cards issued by U.S. banks, payments through your PayPal account, iTunes Cards, iTunes Store Gift Certificates, Content Codes, and Allowance Account balances. If a credit card or your PayPal account is being used for a transaction, Apple may obtain preapproval for an amount up to the amount of the order. Billing occurs at the time of or shortly after your transaction. If you are using 1-Click purchasing or your PayPal account, your order may be authorized and billed in increments during one purchasing session, so it may appear as multiple orders on your statement. If an iTunes Card, iTunes Store Gift Certificate, or Allowance Account is used for a transaction, the amount is deducted at the time of your transaction. When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

  • Why can't I use/build an SD card reader for iPhone?

    I have searched and searched for an SD card reader for iPhone. Apple offers the camera connection kit for iPad but for some reason they have made it incompatible with iPhone. This doesn't make a whole lot of since to me unless they are trying to drive users to buy an iPad. So far I have only found one SD card reader that claims to work on iPhone: http://www.zoommediaplus.com/index.html . If they have actually made it work with iPhone and the app is in the App Store then Apple must allow apps to transffer data from SD cards. If so I can make one myself and build the hardware to go with it since the Apple SD card reader doesn't work on iPhone.
    I guess my main questions are:
         Does Apple allow SD Card readers for iPhone?
         if not:    
              Why don't they?
              Can anyone tell me where it is documented that you can not use SD Cart readers with iPhone?
              How does ZoomMediaPlus get their app in the App Store if it isn't allowed?
         if they do:
              Why aren't their more SD Card readers for iPhone?
              Why doesn't Apple's lightning SD Card read work with iPhone?

    Of course they forbid it.  You realize that an iPhone 6+ owner cannot use the Apple Lightning SD Card Reader, don't you?  We know the support for their own SD Card Reader is built into iOS 8 because it works with iPads.  Therefore, Apple intentionally turned the support OFF for iPhones.
    and it appears no one else has bothered to attempt to produce one
    No, Apple forbids any third parties from producing one.  They produce them for iPads but they cannot work on iPhones, because Apple chooses not to permit such functionality (i.e., they forbid it).  Third parties produce such adapters for Android, so obviously they would want to do the same for iOS so they could sell more. 
    You're recommendation for AirStash is uninformed.  I've tried it and found it to be a clunky time-consuming workaround if all you want to do is import some photos from an SD card.  Using Photos in iOS to import photos is a far more elegant solution - an Apple solution that just works (if you purchased an iPad).
    If it bothers you that iPhones do not work with Apple's own Lightning SD Card Reader, then I suggest you leave feedback instead of attacking those who point it out:
