Apple support's online article:

What to do: If you can't redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes Gift Card - Apple Support

says:

"If you can't read the code on the back of your card because it's scratched or damaged, contact Apple Support."

Also:

You might need to provide:

  • An image of the full front and back of your card.
  • A sales receipt showing when your card was purchased.
  • The serial number from your card. 


(NB: see at the bottom the above article: "Find your serial number" and illustrations.

The serial number is not the same thing as the code that begins with "X" that you use to redeem the card.

I tried to redeem an iTunes gift card but some of the letters/digits were peeled off with the sticker. I called the number on the back and my call was answered by someone in a foreign country and then I was put in hold several times until a “supervisor “ got on the phone and asked me why I purchased so many gift cards and my account was suspended because of suspicious activity!! This infuriates me!! I do buy a lot of the iTunes cards only because it helps me control my spending as opposed to having a credit card on file.
