Apple/iTunes Gift Card Balance: How to Check It
You can check the balance of an Apple Gift Card, App Store Card, or App Store & iTunes Gift Card by using Apple’s official balance-check tools. If you already redeemed the card, you can also view your Apple Account balance.
Three Ways to Check Your Apple Balance
- Online — visit the official balance checker. You'll typically need the card number and the CVV/security code from the back of the card.
- Phone — call 1-800-692-7753 and follow the automated prompts. Have your card number ready.
- In-store — If you have a physical Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes Gift Card, the balance is checked through Apple’s official balance-check page by entering the gift card code and PIN when prompted. For help, Apple support can also assist by phone.
Where to Buy Apple Gift Cards
Apple Gift Cards and App Store and iTunes gift cards are available on Apple’s website.
You can also buy Apple Gift Cards from other common retailers that sell Apple gift cards in-store and online.
If you want the fastest gifting option, Apple also offers email delivery gift cards through Apple’s gift card purchase flow.
Amazon may carry Apple gift cards as well, but availability can vary by listing and region.
Terms & Expiration Notes
Apple notes you can check the available balance by visiting its official balance-check page, or by calling Apple support. Specific expiration and fee rules can depend on the type of gift card and where it was issued.
Balance Showing $0 or the Check Failed?
A few common reasons: the card hasn't been activated yet, the funds have already been spent, the card was reported lost or deactivated, or — less commonly — the card was compromised before you got to use it. If something looks wrong, contact Apple directly using the phone number above. We can't look up or adjust balances ourselves — only point you to the official source.
