Need an Apple Gift Card and not sure where to get one? You can buy a digital code online for instant delivery, or pick up a physical card in a shop. This guide explores the pros and cons of both so you can choose the fastest, safest option.
At dundle, an authorised prepaid reseller selling digital codes since 2012, you can buy an Apple Gift Card online and receive the code by email within seconds without creating an account. Pick your region:
United Kingdom: Apple gift card for the UK
United States: Apple gift card for the US
Canada: Apple gift card for Canada
Australia: Apple gift card for Australia
Buy Apple Gift Cards Online (Fastest Option)
Buying online is the quickest route, because the code is delivered digitally rather than shipped. There are two main options:
Trusted reseller: On dundle you can buy a digital Apple Gift Card, pay with PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay or one of 36 other secure methods, and get your code by email in seconds. You have the option to create a dundle account, but it is not required to make a purchase.
Apple directly: Apple sells its own gift cards by email or, in some regions, by post. This route ties in with your Apple Account.
Online delivery is available 24/7, which makes it ideal for last-minute gifts, quick top-ups, or sending credit to someone in the same country.
Buy Apple Gift Cards In-Store
Prefer a physical card to hand over? Apple Gift Cards are stocked at many supermarkets, electronics shops and convenience stores, though the chains vary by country. In the US, look at Walmart, Target, Best Buy, CVS and Walgreens; in the UK, Tesco, Sainsbury's, Argos and WHSmith; in Canada, Shoppers Drug Mart, Canadian Tire and Walmart; and in Australia, Woolworths, Coles, Big W and Officeworks. You'll usually find them in the gift card aisle or near the cashier or self-checkout.
(Retailer selection varies by location and store, and can change over time — check availability at your local branch before making a special trip.)
Physical cards are great when you want something tangible to give, but you have to travel to the shop, the amounts are limited to what's on the rack, and there's no instant digital delivery if you're in a hurry.
How to Choose Where to Buy
Wherever you buy, a few checks help you avoid trouble:
A trusted seller: an established retailer or authorised reseller with a long track record and consistent reviews.
A secure website: check that the URL starts with https:// and in some cases shows a padlock before you enter any payment details.
Instant delivery: for digital codes, your card should arrive by email right after payment.
The correct region: Apple Gift Cards are region-locked, so pick the country that matches the Apple ID where the card will be redeemed.
Note: Whichever seller you choose, check the website URL starts with https:// (this is a prerequisite for any legitimate website) and never share your gift card code with anyone who contacts you outside the normal checkout process. Legitimate sellers will never ask you to give them your code.
What Values Can You Buy?
Apple offers a range of fixed amounts at checkout — for example £25, £50 and £100 in the UK — plus the option to enter your own custom amount on apple.com or dundle. Exact figures vary by region and can change, so check the live options at checkout before buying. If you're buying toward a specific product, check the price first so you load enough in one go.
Which Option Is Right for You?
Need the card now or sending it to someone? A digital code from a trusted reseller is fastest and most flexible. Want a physical card to give in person? In-store makes sense. Either way, once you have the code the next step is the same — redeem it to your Apple Account. New to these cards? Here's what an Apple Gift Card is and what you can buy with it.
