Hi Zrine,


It sounds like you used your iPhone or Apple device to sign into your friend's game account so you could redeem an iTunes gift card to make in-app purchases for them.


It sounds like you were able to redeem the gift card without any issues but then ran into an error when trying to make that purchase. There are a few reasons that could happen. If there was a charge pending on your account, it may have affected your gift card balance. Look over this guide to help find out why the charge did not go through: If your payment method is declined in the App Store or iTunes Store


If you are able to make purchases elsewhere and only run into the issue with that app, you may want to reach out to the app developer to find out if there is an account related issue.


Take care.
