HT201676: iTunes Allowances are no longer available

Q: I have an itunes gift card, then found out that I can not use it with my KOBO Ereader.  I was wondering if I could let someone else in my family use the balance of my gift card?  They have an IPad and they often use Itune Gift Cards to purchase movies.

I was given an itunes gift card, then found out that my KOBO Ereader will not accept the itunes gift card.  I now have this gift card with a balance on it and would like to give it to my brother (he has an IPAD and uses Itune gift cards all the time).  If he was to use my gift card (with my password) would the movie or book that he purchase show up on his devise or would it show up on mine.  Thanks for all the help

    I'm not sure what you mean. Did you redeem the gift card to your iTunes Store account? If not, just give your brother the gift card and he can redeem it in his own iTunes Store account. If you did redeem the card, then there's no way to transfer the balance from your iTunes Store account to his. He'd have to use your iTunes Store account to make the purchases and sync to his devices.
