Apple Offers 10% Bonus iTunes Credit When Adding Funds to Apple ID

by

Apple is once again offering a promotion that provides a 10 percent cash bonus when adding funds directly to an Apple ID account in the United States and other countries from a linked credit or debit card.

applebonusfunds
Apple is offering the 10 percent bonus for fund additions between $1 and $200, with the maximum bonus credit topping out at $20.

Here's how to add bonus funds:

  1. Open up the App Store app.
  2. Tap on your profile picture.
  3. Tap on Add Funds to ‌Apple ID‌.
  4. Select an amount.
  5. Tap Next.
  6. Confirm payment with Touch ID or Face ID.

The credit can be used for purchasing iTunes movies and TV shows, buying apps, paying app subscription fees, buying books, paying for iCloud storage, paying for Apple Music, paying for Apple Arcade, and more.

Apple kicked off this promotion earlier in November, and it will be available through December 12, 2019. It's a good way to get a bit of an extra bonus for ‌App Store‌ credit, and this week's Black Friday app deals can ensure that your money goes even further.

so an effective 13% off with Apple Card, I guess. 3% daily cashback on the next day. In addition to the extra 10% added instantly to your purchase.
It’s 11.8% off. You can do better elsewhere. You pay $194 effective for $220.


It's a trap.

There's no point in buying entertainment (movies, books, etc) that locks you into apples ecosystem.
So if I pay for my family to have Apple Music, iCloud, and TV subs, you think it’s dumb to take % off of that every month by paying in advance? So I assume you pay for amazon prime monthly and not yearly then?

Nice fear mongering but wrong. I know you can access movies purchased on iTunes on Movies Anywhere and vice versa.

Still doesn't beat the 15-20% off iTuness gift card promo's that retailers offer throughout the year. But it's a nice gesture by Apple.

No debate or questions at all for me. Let's see...give Apple $200, get $20 bonus and 1% back on the CC...what's wrong with that? I pay $9.99 a month for News+, $.99 for data, and my digital newspapers come up for renewal in July. If the bonus is offered again next year, I'll grab it and send in the max (for the 3rd time).
