Gift card for a different country store

Gifting in another country - http://store.apple.com/us/help/gifting#services - only in certain other countries and only the Apple Store, not the iTunes Store. "Note: When purchasing an iTunes Gift, a valid credit card must be on file; you can't purchase an iTunes Gift with store credit. You can't redeem purchased gifts outside of the country of purchase. For example, an iTunes Gift purchased in France can't be redeemed in an iTunes Store outside of France."

You are most welcome!

Happy New Year to you too 🙂

Sorry, not understanding your question? A gift card is valid in the country that the card is purchased in. iTunes stores for each country are different. That's why you can't just change countries at a whim to get music that is available, say, in Mexico, but not here. Gift Cards are the same way. They can only be purchased in country for the store they were purchased in.

Well, seems like currency alone would be problematic. You would be purchasing it with one currency that would fluctuate daily. How would that work?

I think that you can purchase gift cards for in the EU, and any other EU country can use them, but that would be the only exception.

Who knows? Maybe to prevent money laundering? If cards are cash and are more or less untraceable...
