Card Declined for App Store

My card keeps getting declined in the App Store even though I have more than enough money to cover any payments and it’s the same card I use all the time.

You use 'all the time' where ? Obviously being able to use the card elsewhere won't guarantee that it will pass the iTunes Store validation, nor if it used to work with iTunes is also no guarantee that it will continue to do so.


If it's a debit card that might be why it's being declined, not all seem to still be accepted by iTunes. Or the card issuer might be declining it for use with iTunes.


For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you are (and therefore the country which is on your iTunes account).
