Hi, I have $40 in my account, but can’t access it! What do I need to do?

Why can’t I access the money in my account that was on an ITunes gift card?

See -> How to redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card

When redeeming a gift card, the amount will be credited to your Apple ID balance and set your Apple ID balance as your default payment.

See -> Change, add or remove Apple ID payment methods

If you have add funds to your Apple ID balance, it would take about 1 to 3 business days.

So check after a few days, see -> Check your Apple ID balance
