Q: Am I able to use the credit I already have in itunes to purchase ibooks without it taking payment from my bank

When purchashing ibooks the payment is taken out of my bank, yet I have credit in itunes.  Is the process of downloading ibooks different from downloading products in itunes?

    Hello Philcyp,

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

    For more information on this, take a look at:

     

    iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582

     

    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.

     

    Best of luck,

    Mario

    Thank you Mario for your reply which I found helpful in respect of payment options and processes.  I shall have to look further into it because for some reason when I make purchases is it going directly out of my bank account and not using my credit within iTunes as outlined. Kind regards
