From a time to this part many are the users who are choosing to make the majority of their purchases online, In order to take advantage of interesting offers in addition to the convenience of being able to buy and have it brought home, especially when it comes to a specific item that we could hardly find in our place of residence, not to mention having to go to the Mall, queue, avoid the masses of people who invade the shopping areas especially on weekends. Even so, many users are jealous of their personal data, and even more so banking, data that do not want to offer their bank card details in any online service.
All the secure platforms that allow us to make payments with cards must be figures using the HTTPS protocol, if the web does not offer us this type of service, it is that something does not work well, it is very likely that they are trying to deceive us. Leaving aside the problems, which have an easy solution, for some users, credit card payments also are associated with the different app stores that we can find on the internet, whether from Apple, Google, Microsoft, Steam ...
For all those users who want control consumption as much as possible that make of the different stores that Apple offers us, we can make use of iTunes cards, cards that allow us to make purchases for the amount that we have previously paid, without having to associate any credit card, which will also avoid us taking surprises at the end of the month, especially if our main account is associated with other family members.
Perfect for controlling spending
We have all read at some point cases in which children have turned purple to make purchases of the in-app options that many games offer, something that forced Apple to add options within iOS to be able to control them and avoid excessive charges on the card, but today it is still an option that is not all controlled.
With the iTunes gift cards It is very easy to know at all times the money we have to make purchases of music, movies, applications, books ... which allows us to have total control of what we are willing to invest in this type of service.
Where can I buy an iTunes card?
Currently we can find the iTunes cards in a large number of establishments, from tobacconists to large stores.
As well we can acquire them through Startselect, a website that allows us to buy iTunes cards online with a credit from € 15 to € 500. We can use these cards for our account or to make a gift to another person.
If the predefined amounts do not match what you have in mind, they also offer the possibility of buying a card with an iTunes Variable code that allows you to select the exact amount of money you want to deposit, always in a range of € 15 to € 500 maximum.
Once you have purchased the card online, you will receive the code in your email to redeem it on iTunes.
Music, applications, games, movies, books ...
Every time the birthday, saint, or celebration of a relative who makes use of Apple devices comes, we usually face the same dilemma as always: What can I buy? As a general rule, older people who have no one to advise them and usually give them money, money that finally evaporates quickly. However, if we give away an iTunes card, surely the recipient already knows what apps, music, or Apple services they are going to spend it on. The only thing that these types of cards lack to be perfect would be that they allow us to buy in the Apple Store with their balance, something that is not available at the moment.
Apple Music is much cheaper
Currently Apple offers us three different services to be able to contract the Apple Music streaming music service: Personal Plan, Family Plan or Students, the latter allows users who are carrying out academic studies the option of paying half the Apple Personal Plan Music, that is, 4,99 euros per month, but for this, it is necessary to add a credit card to our Apple account.
But for a few months, Apple has also offered us the possibility of buying Apple Music gift cards, 3 or 12-month cards, which allow us to save a few euros, only if we buy the 12-month subscription card, which allows us to save 20 euros, two monthly payments. These types of cards, those of Apple Music, are not the same as the usual iTunes cards, but can only be used for this purpose and are available for 29,97 euros for the 3 months and 99,99 euros for the card that we gives a full year of access to Apple Music.
Redeem a physical gift card
ITunes gift cards can be purchased at a large number of merchants, but can also be purchased online, so that all we have to do is enter the code that we receive directly in our email so that the balance appears in our account. If we receive a physical gift card from iTunes, in order to redeem it we must go to the App Store application and click on the Redeem option.
At that time, the application will ask us for our password for our Apple account and two new options will appear, options that allow us to use the device's camera to redeem the card or to manually enter the numbers and letters that are part of the code.
