You’ll need to cancel your account, wait 30 days and reapply. Apple intends for each user to use their own Apple ID. This insures greater privacy and security for each user. The card is tied to not only your Apple Account (formerly known as Apple ID) but your Social Security Number as well.

Upgraded to another IPhone with a different Apple ID. My wife and kids are using my old Apple ID, too much of a hassle to have thier own Apple ID. My card is tied to that Apple ID and only have the physical card and unable to add to my wallet. I can cancel and reapply. My current loc is $17,500 and been with Apple for 4 yrs since they opened. Would have to start at a lower loc of $2500 and loose 4 yr membership status.

Big mistake !!!


If you think it’s a hassle NOW … just wait ‘til later.


It WILL only get FAR worse.


Bite the bullet now and set everybody up w/ their own Apple Account.
