Target is not letting me add that $15 bonus gift card to my account.
Sometimes I'll see an error message if the bonus gift card has already been automatically added to my account. You might be able to spot yours in the Gift cards section of your account settings.
Yes. Apple gift cards go to your Apple Account balance which can be used at the Apple Store for physical purchases, as well as any "iTunes" Apple TV movie, music and TV purchases/rentals, and can be used for any Apple subscriptions like Apple Care or Apple One.Basically, these gift cards can be used for ALL Apple purchases at Apple, even in the physical Apple Store.
So anyone know if its $15 gift card per transaction order? So I can do it individually or are they tracking it by the account? Anyone know if it works in person?
Do this every year but really abussing it this year. Have 28 GCs. Going to make getting the kids iPhones a lot more barrable this year. I purchased majority in the store. Ran into some really nice Target associates that let me do many separate orders.
How are you able to do that? I've not done it years so I don't know what's changed?

I was told limit 5 gift cards per transaction in Apple Store. I was so sad.
Did you use the balance to pay for entire phone cost? Or is there a limit
There is a limit of $2000 balance on your apple account. If you add all your gift cards to your apple account then you should be able to buy anything in the store.
If #5 was invalid, wouldn't that mean you only purchased 10?I tried multiple check out machines and both the scanners (gun/fixed) and got the limit error.
#5 went through fine using the gun scanner, so I bought 11 on my first visit. Went back the next day on purchased three more before the employee told me she couldn't let me do any more separate transactions. 14 total so far. I'm heading back today to see if I can get a few more.
I bought 12 cards to buy an iPhone at Apple Store this morning. Unfortunately the codes from 5 of the cards got partially damaged and unreadable. Those cards looked completely normally from the outside. When I called Apple support and they verified those codes have been redeemed and there is nothing that they can do. I will try to go to target and see if anything that they can help but most likely I just lost $500.

Just got 6 more from the same target store, for a total of 20 physical cards. I had a problem with damaged cards in the past, but feel lucky this time all 20 cards redeemed just fine. Note: when scanning, there is a barcode to scan first, then you are prompted to peel off the tab to scan the activation code. After you pull the tab off, there are now two barcodes. If the scan machine reads the first barcode again, you'll get an error that the card isn't valid. If covered the first one with my thumb to scan the activation code, it worked great. Or you can use the scan gun to be more precise.

Same thing here and target told me to talk to Apple because there's nothing they can do.
