Closing the gap
Apple balances are spent to the cent, so a purchase often leaves you a small amount short. Cards at 2 HKD or 100 yen exist to bring the balance up to a specific price without leaving credit behind afterwards.

(14 products)
Currency in the product name does all the work on iTunes gift cards. A code redeems only into an Apple account whose store country matches it, so a Hong Kong card is useless on a Japanese account and the reverse holds too. That is the whole product decision, and it is why the shelf is organised by currency instead of by value. The denominations are deliberately small. Hong Kong runs from 2 up to 200 HKD, Japan from 100 to 500 yen, Turkey from 25 to 100 lira, Taiwan at 50 and 500 TWD, with one 10 USD card sitting alongside them.

The currency map
Five Storefronts, One Rule
Each card belongs to one Apple storefront. Match it to the country already set on your account, not to the country you live in.
| Storefront | Denominations in stock |
|---|---|
| Hong Kong | The widest ladder on the shelf: a Hong Kong iTunes gift card comes at 2, 50, 100 or 200 HKD. The 2 HKD card exists to close a small gap, not to fund anything. |
| Turkey | The Turkish lira iTunes gift card comes at 25, 50 and 100, with no extra conditions written into the listing. |
| Japan | A Japan iTunes gift card runs 100, 200 or 500 yen. Small values that suit paying the exact price of an app or an in-app item. |
| Taiwan | The Taiwan iTunes gift card pair covers 50 and 500 TWD, the narrowest range here, with nothing in between. |
| United States | A single 10 USD card. The fuller USA ladder sits on the Apple card shelf instead of here. |
Why the values are small
Topping Up to a Price Rather Than Holding a Balance
A 100 yen card looks odd next to the hundred-dollar cards sold elsewhere. It is a different job.
Paying without a card on file
Store balance covers app purchases, in-app items and subscriptions in that storefront. For accounts with no payment method attached, a small iTunes gift card code is the whole payment route.
Redemption
Getting the Code Onto the Right Account
The sequence is the same for every currency here, and the failure point is always the store country.
1
Check the store country first
Open your Apple account settings and read the country or region on the payment page. That is what the code has to match.
2
Redeem from the App Store
Tap your profile picture, choose Redeem Gift Card or Code, then enter the code you were delivered. The web redemption page accepts the same code.
3
Confirm the balance moved
The credit appears against the account immediately. If it does not, stop and raise it rather than trying the code repeatedly.
4
Spend it in the same storefront
Balance cannot be moved between countries or converted. Whatever storefront took the code is where the money stays.
What to Check Before Buying iTunes Gift Cards
Gift card codes are single-use and non-reversible, which makes the pre-purchase checks unusually important on a cheap product.
A mismatched country wastes the code
Redeeming is a one-way action. Enter a Turkish code on a Japanese account and it is rejected, and switching your account country afterwards does not rescue a code you have already tried. Read the currency in the product name twice before ordering.
The replacement window is under half an hour
All thirteen listings carry the same short cover period from delivery. Redeem while you are still at the device, so a dead or already-used code can be raised inside the window and not the next morning.
One listing publishes a personal-use notice. The 200 HKD Hong Kong card states that the code is for topping up your own Apple account only, and that buying on behalf of other people, reselling or redeeming elsewhere is not allowed. Read it as written on the listing you order.

Codes are single use. Once entered against an account the value is gone from the code. Keep the delivered file until you have confirmed the balance, then treat it as spent.
Picking one
Choosing the Denomination Before the Price
Three quick questions and the shelf narrows to one or two listings.
Which storefront is your account on
This eliminates four of the five groups immediately. If you are unsure, check the account settings before you order rather than after.
What are you actually paying for
An exact app price suits the small cards. A subscription that renews monthly is better served by one of the larger values so you are not redeeming again in four weeks.
Do you need a different platform
Play balance and its own region rules live on the Google Play gift card shelf, and the USA Apple ladder sits with the other gift cards.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about iTunes
Quick answers about this category. Expand a question to read the full answer.
Will a Hong Kong card work on my own Apple account?
Only if the store country on that account is Hong Kong. Apple ties gift card codes to a single storefront, so an HKD code is rejected on a Japanese, Turkish or US account. Check the region in your account settings before ordering.
Which currencies are on this page?
Hong Kong dollars at 2, 50, 100 and 200, Turkish lira at 25, 50 and 100, Japanese yen at 100, 200 and 500, Taiwan dollars at 50 and 500, plus a single 10 USD card. Thirteen listings in total across the five storefronts.
Why are some cards so small?
Apple spends balance to the cent, so purchases often leave you slightly short. A 2 HKD or 100 yen card closes that gap exactly, which is more useful than carrying leftover credit you have no plan for.
Where do I enter the code?
Open the App Store, tap your profile picture, choose Redeem Gift Card or Code, and enter the code from the delivered file. The web redemption page takes the same code. The balance appears against the account immediately.
Can I move the balance to another country?
No. Once redeemed, the credit belongs to that storefront and cannot be converted or transferred. Changing your account region later does not carry the balance with it, which is why matching the card at purchase matters.
What if the code has already been used?
Raise it inside the replacement window, which runs under half an hour from delivery on every listing here. Redeem as soon as the file lands instead of saving the code, because a used code discovered next week is difficult to argue.
Are there restrictions on how I use the card?
One Hong Kong listing states the code is for topping up your own Apple account only, and rules out purchases on behalf of others as well as resale. Other listings carry no such text, so check the description on the specific card you order.
Can I pay for a subscription with this?
Yes, within the same storefront. Store balance covers apps, in-app purchases and subscriptions billed by Apple in that country. For a recurring charge, pick a denomination that covers more than one renewal.
