Transfer a credit

I had to switch apple ID’s as the old one was an obsolete email address. There was a $10 credit under that ID. How can I transfer the credit to my new ID?

If you created a new ID, you will lose access to some of your data and all prior purchases. Have you considered doing a name change on the old ID so you can retain data, purchases, and your credit?

Apple ID or password.


You can't transfer a credit to another Apple ID. You can  contact iTunes Support to see if they can/will transfer the credit for you. Either use the form or scroll to the bottom of the page in the 2nd link. Follow through the screens to get a chat or telephone option.
