Special Offer Apple Gift Card by Email issue ( education website).

I purchasesd an iPad Air thru the Apple education website on 8/5/23.. It clearly stated “special $100 gift card” and showed that indeed $100 was subtracted from total. However my credit card was charged on the supposedly “free gift card” . I did get the gift card by email the same day, but my credit card was charged $100 (actually was posted, went through, not a pending charge)- which was a separate charge from the iPad Air I purchased. Am I missing something ? Tried calling customer support but can’t go through. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for explaining this muguy. It makes sense the way you explained it

It was confusing for me and the team leader at the local Apple Store where I picked it up the way the offer was presented, particularly since there were 2 separate charges on the credit card, instead of just one transaction.
