App Store or Apple Store? The days of choosing the wrong gift card are over. Apple today introduced new Apple gift cards that do it all.
Before today, Apple offered two types of physical and digital gift cards. Apple Store Gift Cards were valid for products and accessories at any Apple retail store or online at Apple.com. App Store and iTunes gift cards were valid for Apple digital services such as App Store, Apple Music, Apple Arcade and Apple TV +.
The similarity between the two types of cards meant that customers often bought Apple Store gift cards when they really wanted App Store credit, or tried to use the App Store and iTunes gift cards at a physical Apple Store. Apple even offered a page dedicated to explaining the difference.
Starting today, you can visit Apple’s new Unified Gift Card site to purchase a universal card by email or postal mail. The cards come in up to 8 different Apple logo designs and standard amounts of $ 25, $ 50, $ 100, or a custom amount. You can also pick up the new cards at a physical Apple store.
Apple notes that older gift cards are still accepted and remain valid for the products or services for which they were originally designated. If you prefer, you can add money directly to your Apple account balance.
