If it is an Apple gift card you need to redeem it. Non-Apple gift cards cannot be used as payment types.


The article "What type of gift card do I have?" explains the different kinds of gift cards Apple uses, has links on how to redeem them, and what can be purchased with each kind. Click on the link --> What type of gift card do I have? - Apple Support
