Any help appreciated thanks!

Do I have to create a whole new account?

    Just making sure. Also want to see if paying through itunes/apple store will work ok with my current subscription of monthly?

    If I pay through itunes/apple store will I not be billed on my payment method I have listed in my account?

    One last question all of this will still work with 1Password 6.8 right ? (currently using 6.8 because of the laggy firefox extension problem obviously)

    Thanks.

    @ttim03: We don't have access to Apple's systems, so it isn't something we can do for you. I suppose you could sign up for a new account through Apple and copy your data over. Is there a particular reason you want to do that though? No matter what, it will not be easy.

    I figured out if I cancel then resubscribe through the Apple App Store once my billing period is over it should work easily!

    @ttim03: No that won't work. You'd need to sign up through Apple for it to be billed through them.

    Ahhh. :(

    The reason I want to do this is because I received itunes gift cards and want to put the money toward 1 year subscription of 1password.

    Why won't this be easy ?

    @ttim03: If you're paying for a 1Password.com membership, then yes it includes everything listed here:

    What are the benefits of a 1Password membership?

    I hope this helps. Be sure to let me know if you have any other questions! :)

    No. If your account is billed through the website, it cannot be paid through Apple.

    Version 6.8 is not supported. Version 7 was released many months ago. You should update to that.

    @brenty so why won't this be easy ?

    It should be. :(

    @brenty thanks but I really want a year of 1Password subscription. I wish this was easier to do but it is ok.

    Can't I just export my data then import it ?

    @ttim03: As I explained already, Apple has their own billing system, which we do not have access to. If you want to pay through them, you'd need to sign up that way too. You're free to do that, but you may want to consider just using the iTunes gift cards for something else. There's plenty of other things you can buy with that.

    One reason is because you guys only accept creditcards. I want to use paypal.
    So the only way is to start a new account?

    Welcome to the forum, @patrickton! We don't currently accept PayPal directly, but you can certainly use PayPal to purchase a 1password.com gift card. What are you looking to purchase?
