Q: I want to make an app purchase that is like $17.00.  I don't want to use the credit on the itunes gift card.  How can I just charge the purchase to a credit card?

Is there a way to make a specific purchase of an app for my husband's iPad using my credit card?  I don't want to "use up all the credit" he has from a gift card.

Thanks.

    Hello maggielou,

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

     

    For more information on this, take a look at this article:

    Best of luck,
