Where Do I Locate My Account Balance on iTunes?

In iTunes, your account balance shows how much money you've added to your account through gift cards or by using iTunes Pass at an Apple Store. When you buy anything from the iTunes Store -- music, movies, apps or books -- iTunes deducts the necessary funds from your balance, if you have one, rather than billing your credit card.

ITunes also shows your balance in two other locations: in the upper right corner of the window while in the iTunes Store and on the Account Information page.

Your balance always shows up on the Store home page.

Location on iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad

Both the iTunes Store app and the App Store app on iOS also show your account balance. In either app, open the first tab (Music in the iTunes Store app or Featured in the App Store app) and scroll all the way to the bottom of the page. You'll see your balance listed directly below your Apple ID. If you opt to have iTunes charge your credit card with each purchase, you won't see a balance.

If you aren't logged in with the right ID, tap Apple ID to sign out.

You won't see an empty balance in the menu or in the store.
