It is understood that there have been many complaints about App store recharge cards recently. Due to the large number of black and fake cards on the Taobao platform, Apple App store recharge cards are not sold properly, causing damage to consumer interests. Starting from February 1, 2017, Taobao has decided to prohibit sellers from publishing and selling App store recharge cards on the platform.
Taobao said that it mainly focuses on the inability to use the recharge card, the inability to query the use time, unknown source of goods, and illegal use of credit cards. There are frequent disputes over buying and selling, resulting in losses of funds between consumers and merchants.
The payment methods of Apple's App store have always been mainly Visa and recharge cards, but the above two methods are difficult to meet the huge needs of domestic users, and Apple has to launch UnionPay payment to occupy the Chinese market. In November this year, after updating the official version of iOS 10.1.1, the App store officially supported Alipay as a daily payment method. Therefore, in addition to using a recharge card to pay, domestic users can also use UnionPay and Alipay to pay.
At present, the inventory on the seller's hands can continue to be released for sale, but starting from next month, it will be prohibited from publishing App Store recharge cards (including App Store recharge cards from countries and regions around the world). If the seller publishes it illegally, it will be dealt with according to relevant rules. The seller must make preparations for data backup and other related items before February 1, 2017, and remove relevant treasures in time.
