How to Get Free App Store Credits

Free App Store credits will allow you to purchase fun and useful applications for your iPhone or iPad. There are many ways you get these credits. Unfortunately there are also many ways to get scammed. If you know what to look for you can get free credits without getting hit with a scam.


 

Free App Store credits can be a useful tool for your iPhone or iPad. The credits will allow you to purchase applications that can give you fun games or useful utilities that would ordinarily cost money.



  • Watch for specials. If you keep an eye on the sale ads that retailers include in the paper on Sundays you can find free giveaways and promotions that will get you free credits. For instance, over the holiday season many retailers will give out Apple App Store gift cards with certain purchases. The Apple Store will run these specials from time to time as well. This doesn’t mean you have to purchase a brand new iPad to take advantage of the promotion. It’s not uncommon to see these promotions available for small purchases, like cases, chargers, or other accessories.

  • Keep an eye on the Apple website. There are plenty of promotions run through the year that will give you free credits to the App store. Sometimes it’s as simple as clicking a link, and other times may require a small purchase. You can also find specials through Apple that will give you credits equal to any credits you purchase. This is an easy way to get two Apps for the price of one.

  • Avoid the scams. There are plenty of sites that promise free App credits just for entering your phone number. Unfortunately, many of these programs will end up putting you on a monthly subscription of something, and it costs you more money every month than the free credits were worth. Also avoid any programs that ask you to text something in return for free credits. They are almost always scams.
