1-Click ®

1-Click is a registered service mark of Amazon.com, Inc., used under license. 1-Click is a convenient feature that allows you to purchase from the iTunes Store with a single click of your mouse or other input device. When accessing the iTunes Store on your computer, 1-Click purchasing may be activated for all your transactions by selecting the “Don’t ask me about buying … again” check box in the “Are you sure you want to buy and download … ?” dialog box that appears when a “Buy” button is clicked. (You may reset this Selection at any time by clicking “Reset Warnings” in your Account.) When accessing the iTunes Store on your iPod using Wi-Fi, 1-Click is activated for each transaction by pressing the button showing the price of the Product, which reveals the “Buy” button. When 1-Click purchasing is activated, clicking the "Buy" button will start the download immediately and complete your purchase transaction without any other steps. Purchases using 1-Click are subject to these Terms of Sale, including the Refund Policy set forth herein. When accesing the iTunes Store on your computer, you may turn off 1-Click and instead purchase using a shopping cart under the “Store” tab in your preferences menu within the iTunes application. Using a shopping cart allows you to review and change the Products you have selected for purchase before completing the transaction. The shopping cart functionality is not available when accessing the iTunes Store on your iPod.

PAYMENT METHODS

The iTunes Store accepts credit cards, accounts created by iTunes Store Gift Certificates or iTunes Cards and Allowance Account balances as forms of payment. If a credit card is being used for a purchase, iTunes obtains a pre-approval from the credit card company for the amount of the order. Billing to your credit card occurs at the time of purchase. If the account balance created by an iTunes Store Gift Certificate or iTunes Card or the balance from an Allowance Account is used for an iTunes Store Purchase, the amount is deducted from your account at the time of purchase. If the total amount of the purchase is greater than the balance available in your Gift Certificate, iTunes Card or Allowance Account, your credit card will be charged for the remaining balance.

The iTunes Store accepts the following credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, JCB and Diners Club.

PLEASE NOTE:

-We are unable to accept credit cards issued by banks outside of Japan or prepaid gift cards issued by credit card companies.

-Debit cards and check cards have daily spending limits that may prevent the processing of your order.

-If a purchase has been declined online due to credit card issues, please ensure all data is correct and resubmit.

-If the transaction is not accepted online, you will be unable to use that card for your purchase and should use another credit card.

BILLING

If you are purchasing using 1-Click, your order may be authorized and billed in gradual increments during one purchasing session as you click the "Buy Now" button. Depending on the size of your order, this may appear as multiple orders and billings on your credit card statement.

If you use the Shopping Cart functionality, you will have one order that authorizes and bills as a single purchase.
