Using a Gift Card to Work:

As long as it is not for iTunes; it activated; is used in the same country of purchase; and you were not scammed, then it ought to work. So, don't use an iTunes Gift Card for this.


For reference...

Avoiding Gift Card Scams:


A. Contact the Seller.

Whomever the seller is, ask them for a refund.


B. Where was the Purchased?

  • Online?:

If this was purchased online (i.e. eBay) then contact the site, seeing if the seller can be accountable and if you can get your money back.


  • In-Person?:

If this as purchased in person, then there may be nothing you can do but contact them, asking for your monkey back.


Or...


  • A Retailer?:

If purchased at a retailer, take it back, asking what your options are for return. Gift Card return policies vary by rules of law. So, take to the Manager, asking if you can get a new card.


C. Avoiding Scams:

In all recommend getting it at a retailer - that way you can easily avoid scams. Getting it online might result in scams (and plenty are reported).

In countries and regions where Apple Gift Card is available, you can use your Apple Account balance to buy products and accessories at apple.com or in the Apple Store app. In these countries and regions, your Apple Account balance includes the balance from any Apple Gift Cards or App Store & iTunes Gift Cards that you have redeemed.


For a 200$ gift card, you can use it to buy a 3rd or 2nd gen airpods or add more balance to get the airpod pro at 250$.

Under a Few Rules of Thumb...

Yes. But purchase an Apple Gift card --not an Apple iTunes card, which will only work for the iTunes Store. Based on taking part in these forums over the years, there are plenty reports of Gift Card Scams on these forums. So, I would reemphasize that you purchase one from your local retailer, rather than off the Web such as on eBay, Amazon, or craigslist.
