Hey guys, we are thinking about running contest with our game Animal Ark Africa for some US iTunes gift cards. Anyone knows, where we can get some? They are not available in our country and so far we only found them on ebay, but we are not sure about the authenticity. Thanks!
You can buy gift cards directly over iTunes and send them per mail. Look at the options at the bottom of the iTunes Browser. Or, if I remember correctly, directly under the "redeem"-option on the right side.
You can only buy Gift certificates for the country that you have an account for. In order to buy US Gift Certificates, you have to have a US account, and a US method of payment, so in theory you'd need a separate account for each country you wanted to gift for and a suitable method of payment in each.
I guess you could try finding someone in USA willing to accept paypal in exchange for buying a card/s. They could simply send you the codes to the iTunes cards, but that's only if you have someone you know and trust
I suggest avoiding eBay or any auction site in buying your iTunes cards--there are a lot of scammers out there. Go directly to Apple or iTunes.
here are some information I found on the apple store that might explain it a bit more: http://store.apple.com/us/help/gifting?mco=MTM3NDc1MTM for what I understand you can now buy giftcards for other countries, but there are some restrinctions here and there.. so if you are in America you can buy it for certain countries listed on that page, if you are in Europe you can gift one for all EU countries. If I get it right..
