Hello there.

Is there any known or update on what's the current state of NZ credit cards that can be used for US iTunes other than trying to obtain US iTunes gift cards.

I know the following had reported to be working:

OneSmart - set/transfer to US Currency

I pay mine with my OneSmart card - just make sure the US wallet has funds in it. I got a new one last month because the old one expired, and iTunes accepted the update just fine.

Using OneSmart here. And judging from the email I got over the weekend, Apple are still more than happy to use it to charge against (in this case my HBO Now subscription).

For OneSmart, what's the billing address do you have to set it to? The NZ address?

To clarify this, OneSmart card is usable with US iTunes with a US-based address for billing.

Correct. Or to further clarify, this is the configuration I've had in place for nearly two years now, and it works well for me for purchasing US iTunes content, including our HBO Now subscription.
