  • You can't use your Apple Account balance to send gifts or gift cards.
  • If you use Family Sharing, your family members can't spend your Apple Account balance. Funds that you add to your Apple Account balance are only available to you. Find out more about how purchases are billed to your Apple Account balance.
  • Some purchases might require you to have a credit card on file, even if you use your Apple Account balance to make the purchase.

When redeeming a gift card, the amount will be credited to your (1) Apple Account balance and (2) you need to set your Apple Account balance as your default payment.


(1)

See -> Check your Apple Account balance

Check your Apple Account balance – Apple Support (UK)


(2)

See -> Add a payment method to your Apple ID

Add a payment method to your Apple ID – Apple Support (UK)


If you already use your Apple Account balance, the Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card is automatically added to your Apple Account balance.


Your default payment method will be used first by Apple when you need to make a payment.

If you have set your Apple Account balance as your default payment method and you have a CC, you pay from your default payment method.
