❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I pay with a credit card for the Apple Account cashback campaign?
A: You cannot pay directly with a credit card. However, you can charge FamiPay with a JCB credit card, then use FamiPay to top up your Apple Account at FamilyMart for double points.
Q: Is buying an Apple Gift Card (POSA card) eligible for this campaign?
A: No. This campaign only applies to direct Apple Account balance top-ups at the convenience store register. Purchasing Apple Gift Cards from the shelf is not eligible.
Q: Can I participate in the campaign at all 4 convenience stores?

Q: When will I receive the cashback gift cards/e-money?
A: Cashback codes will be sent via LINE on February 3, 2026 (you need to add the campaign’s official LINE account as a friend beforehand). For 7-Eleven, you must collect the cashback at a Seven Bank ATM during the designated period.
