Creating an Apple ID Without a Credit Card

Understand the process. If you try to create an Apple ID using the prompts in iTunes, you will be forced to enter a valid credit or debit card to proceed. You can use a workaround to create an account without a card, which will allow you to download all of the free content available on iTunes.
1. If you already have an Apple ID, skip this section.
Open the App Store. To create an Apple ID without a credit card, you'll need to find a free item in the iTunes Store. The App Store is the easiest place to find free content, but you can perform this method in any iTunes Store page.
Find a free item. On the App Store main page, you'll see a variety of different apps with prices listed underneath. Look for an app that says "Free".
Click the "Get" button. This will prompt you to sign in with your Apple ID.
Click "Create Apple ID". Starting the Apple ID creating process from this prompt will allow you to create one without a credit or debit card.
Follow the prompts to create your Apple ID. Fill out the fields with your information. Make sure that the age you select is over 13, or you won't be able to create the Apple ID.
Select "None" as the payment method. This option only appears if you create your Apple ID using this method.
Start using your new Apple ID. After verifying the account through your email address, you'll be able to start using your new Apple ID to download free content from iTunes.

Finding Free Stuff

Know what you'll be able to find. Different iTunes sections have differing amounts of free content. The Music store no longer has free songs available unless there is a special promotion, while the TV section still offers free episodes. The App Store and the Book Store have the most free content.
Open the Store page for the content you want to find. Select the content type from the top of the iTunes window. You can click the "..." button to see additional types like Books and Apps. Once you've selected a type of content, click the "iTunes Store" tab.
Find the "Quick Links" section of the Store's main page. You'll find this on the right side of the iTunes window after opening the store.
Look for the "Free Content" link. Depending on what Store you are viewing, it could say "Free Books" or "Free TV Episodes". If you're using the App Store, click the "Top Free Apps" link to browse through the most popular free apps available. In the iTunes U store, most of the content is free, so there is no "Free" section. Many podcasts are free as well, so there is also no "Free" section for them. There is no longer free music available in the Music store.
Browse and through the free items available. Different sections will have different amounts of items. There are usually a couple dozen TV episodes available, and hundreds of Books. The "Top Free Apps" section of the App Store will display the top 200 free apps, though there are many more free apps than this.
Click "Get" for any item you want to add to your library. You'll see the "Get" button next to any item that you can download for free. When looking at a TV episode, you may have to scroll through the season to find the episode that is free. Clicking "Get" will begin downloading that content to your computer, which you can then use or transfer to your iOS device.
