Many people who have the iPhone/iPod Touch are still not able to install the FREE Applications because they don’t have an iTunes account as iTunes Compulsorily needs a Credit Card to create one !
I’ll explain in short how to get yourself a FREE iTunes Account without Credit Card !
Follow the Steps below :
1. Open iTunes
2. Click on iTunes Store from Left Side Pane.
3. At the very bottom of the page, select My Store as “United States”. (Other Countries are not tested)
Once you made sure that your iTunes Store Location is set to US, select AppStore from the Menu located at the very bottom of the iTunes Store as shown below:
4. Click on any FREE Application and Download it by Clicking on Free as Shown in the Pic above.
5. The Page related to that Application will open. Click on Get App and you’ll get a Box as shown below :
6. In the Dialog Box Click on Create New Account.
7. Click on Continue.
8. Accept the License Agreement by Ticking the Check Box and then Click on Continue.
9. Fill in your Email ID, Password, Secret Question and Birth Date and click Continue.
10. Now as you see in the Image Below. Now apart from VISA, MasterCard, American Express, you have another new Payment Option which says “None“. Check that !
11. Fill in your Details and click Continue. (if you’re wondering what to fill in for Address, you can fill up any valid PIN (ZIP) Code and Phone No. ex. City: New York, State: NY, Zip: 10012, Phone: 212 226-3127)
12. You’ll now be sent an Email. Check your EMail, Verify your Account.
