Our Verdict
Deal should be available both in-store and online at target.com. Pay with REDcard for an extra 5% off.
These gift cards are quite valuable given they now work for purchasing real Apple products, as well as for digital purchases on iTunes; the added $10 bonus could be worthwhile for someone who wants to make an Apple purchase, e.g. buy a new iPhone.
how do you guys do multiples, i did 3 separate transaction of $100 each. Only 2 got through, the third one got cancelled. All subsequent tries gets cancelled…looks like 2 is the max? how does someone do 20 transactions per day…
Hopefully perfect timing as I need to buy an IPhone today outright.. I assume I can order 6 of these $100 in separate transactions and then use in Apple store to buy the Iphone?
Was able to purchase 4 via separate transactions. Apple Gift Card appeared within a few minutes of each order, and the Target Gift Card appeared within a few minutes of the Apple Gift Card appearing.
I spaced them out 1 hour+ between each, but I’m not sure if that was necessary. With RedCard, it came to $95.50 each (5% of $100 – $10 = $4.50, so not the full $5 off $100). So $382 for $400, plus $40 in Target cards which I will use. Not bad since I was planning to make an Apple purchase anyway!
FYI, some people have noted having a Target Circle offer for $10/$20 for making 2-3 transactions of $50/100 each. No such luck for me, but that could definitely sweeten the pot!
I had $15 in Target Circle credit for 2 orders of $85 or more. Didn’t think ordering a gift card would trigger it, but so far so good.
Good deal! A couple of the people said it indeed was working despite the terms saying GC wouldn’t trigger. Obviously YMMV, though! Seems like quite the range of reward & required transactions.

Looks like the physical Apple GC is not sold online?
Around thanks giving there would be buy $100 apple gift card get $20 target gift card. If you’re not in an urgent, you can wait until Thanks giving and see if the promotion comes up.
YMMV – be careful if you’re buying these in store. Lots of reports nationwide where the gift cards are compromised and funds get drained as soon as you buy them. So if you do, immediately add the card to your Apple account.
Does everyone straight up use the apple GC Or do you resell them?
I use them. Great way to pay for apps, iCloud storage, Apple Music, and, of course, Apple hardware.
iOS games 😐
DP. Last time this was offered I was able to buy multiple 100 gift cards in separate transactions and I was able to get $10 target gift card on each one. I bought ten $100 last time.
What is the end date for gift cards?
Adding another DP. I asked support. Limit one only. I will go in store to buy though, but I’m not sure if I can with the red card (debt). Or at least I want a physical $10 card.
Limit 20 transactions per day per redcard.
you will have to run each $ 100 as a separate transaction. you can use the same target gift card to load the $ 10 too.
