    How To Create An iTunes Account Without Credit Card/payment method

    iTunes does not display the "None" option when signing-up directly, but if we follow the account creation route as described below we will get our desired option :

    1. Goto iTunes and click the "App Store" link as shown below.
    2. Now navigate to "Free Apps" section and install an free application.
    3. You will now be prompted to enter your Apple Account information or create a new one, click "Create New Account" option.
    4. Follow the on-screen instructions and you will be shown the "None" payment option, you can use Hidden Content to get your fake details for registration.

      Hidden Content

      Code:
      Hidden Content style="">Now, verify the account confirmation email to complete the process.
    5. You can now sign-in using your new "Apple ID" and enjoy using "AppStore".

    What happens if you then try to purchase a paid app?
    Does this mean I can have multiple apple accounts for America, Canada, and uk stores as I've noticed they offer different products?

    You won't be able to purchase a paid app until Apple has some sort of billing information. Some countries they let you use a PayPal account instead of a credit card - not sure if they need the addresses to match or not.

    Yes, you can have multiple accounts no problem. It's become much easier to manage multiple accounts now you don't need to sync the device to iTunes (app updates were a nightmare) as the device handles updates in a more sensible way.

    The other "trick" you can use to register in multiple countries is to use the Gmail + separator. For example you might have Hidden Content for your main account and then Hidden Content for the US account, Hidden Content for the Canadian store, etc. etc. The advantage of this is that all your iTunes emails get sent to the same inbox and it makes life much easier when swapping accounts in the App Store app.
