Hi everyone,

Does anyone know when Apple deducts the amount from the Apple Account Balance? Is it when the order status changes to ‘Preparing to Ship’?

I pre-ordered the Apple Watch S10 on Monday, but my balance hasn’t changed yet. It also seems like I can still place another order using that same balance. Any insights?

Thanks!
 
The status of my order just changed to 'Preparing to Ship' and my balance has been deducted!
 
I was wondering this myself. I redid my order yesterday b/c I didn't apply my Apple balance and I changed the band color. I see it's at processing now but no change to the account balance...guess I have to wait until preparing to ship.

Yup, the balance amount won't change until the status changes

Hej

I pre-ordered something that didn't ship yet. In the meantime I added more funds to my Apple Account balance. Do you know, does it take everything that is available on the apple account balance, or only the amount that i entered originally?

Hey! If you entered a specific amount on checkout, it should only take this amount. :)
