Ever purchased an app, movie, or book from Apple only to realize it wasn’t what you expected? Whether it was an accidental buy, an unauthorized charge, or just a case of buyer’s remorse, you might be eligible for a refund. Thankfully, Apple offers a straightforward way to request refunds—and it’s all done online!
In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to request a refund, help you track the status of your request, and explore what to do if you can’t find the charge you’re disputing.
How to Request a Refund
Apple makes it easy to request a refund using any device with a web browser. Just follow these simple steps:
- Visit the Refund Request Page
Head over to reportaproblem.apple.com and sign in with your Apple ID. - Select “Request a Refund”
After signing in, tap or click on “I’d like to”, then choose “Request a refund.” - Pick a Reason
Apple will ask why you’re requesting a refund. Select the option that best matches your situation, then hit Next. - Choose the Purchase
Pick the app, subscription, or other item you want refunded, then tap Submit.
💡 If you were charged for a subscription you no longer want, it’s a good idea to cancel it first. You can learn how to do that here.
What Happens Next?
Once you submit your refund request:
- Apple typically reviews it within 24 to 48 hours.
- If your refund is approved, it might take additional time for the funds to be credited to your original payment method.
Need to check the status of your refund request? No problem! Here’s how.
Can’t Find the Charge on Apple’s Refund Page?
If you don’t see the transaction in your Apple account, someone else might have made the purchase using a different Apple ID. Here’s how you can check:
- Search Your Email
Look for a subject line that says “Receipt from Apple” or “Invoice from Apple” in your inbox. - Match the Charges
Find a receipt that matches the amount you’re disputing. - Check the Apple ID on the Receipt
Each receipt will show which Apple account made the purchase.
Once you identify the correct account, log in and follow the refund steps listed above.
Still Can’t Find the Receipt?
If you’ve checked your email and still don’t see a receipt, try these additional steps:
- Verify if someone else in your Family Sharing group made the purchase.
- Double-check which Apple ID you used to sign into the App Store or iTunes.
📝 Refund eligibility may vary by country or region. For details, review Apple’s Media Services Terms and Conditions.
