Q: I redeemed my code on my iPad, but I want to use it on my iPhone.  Unfortunately iTunes won't recognize my iPhone and tells me the code is already in use and I do not have sufficient credit to buy what I want on the iPhone.  What should I do?

How do I transfer redeemed credit from iPad to iPhone?

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.6

    It doesn't need transferring, gift cards are redeemed onto an iTunes account not a device, so if you are using the same iTunes account on both devices then it will be available to spend on both devices. If it's not showing next to your id at, for example, the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app beneath your id then try tapping on your id and log out of it and then log back in and see if it then shows.
