Sell Your Apple / iTunes Gift Card for Cash
Updated October 15, 2026 · Reviewed by Kirill Novikov, FlipGift founder
Sell your Apple / iTunes gift card for cash without handing anyone the number or PIN. You use the card to pay for a buyer's Apple / iTunes order, their money waits in escrow, and it's released to you when the order arrives — typically 72–88% of face value, against the 60–85% buy-back sites pay after taking the code.

Why Apple / iTunes gift cards go unused
Apple cards strand with Android users and anyone whose subscriptions already bill to a card.
Which Apple cards can fill an order
Apple has issued three kinds of gift card, and all three can pay for hardware — which is what buyers here order from apple.com:
- Apple Gift Card (the current one) pays for products and for App Store content alike.
- App Store & iTunes Gift Card (the previous generation) redeems into your Apple Account balance, and Apple says that balance pays for "Apple products, accessories, apps, games, music…". An old iTunes card can cover AirPods.
- Apple Store Gift Card (older, products only) is still valid and buys exactly what buyers want: iPhone, iPad, Mac, Watch, AirPods and accessories. It can't go into your Account balance, so you enter it at checkout.
Before you accept an Apple order:
- No P.O. boxes. Apple ships online orders within the continental US, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico only — never to P.O. boxes or U.S. territories.
- US cards, US account. A card bought in the United States works only with a US Apple Account.
- Up to eight gift cards per order at apple.com, alongside your Account balance. Several cards? List them together as one balance and they can fill one bigger order, like a MacBook.
- Proof is the apple.com order, not the card. Upload the order confirmation and the carrier's tracking number. A photo of the gift card proves nothing and is refused, and Apple's order number (W…) goes in the screenshot, not the tracking field.
