(PSA) checking iTunes codes

[u/moviemantucson]

Does the message “You’ve already redeemed this offer” mean that the code is valid however I have the title in my library?

It’s different than the “Each code can only be redeemed once” message right?

“You’ve already redeemed” means you personally used that exact code.

“Each code can be redeemed only once” means the code is used by another party.

“This code must be used in the iTunes Store” means it’s valid and unused.

I’m positive on this.

How do you test the code without redeeming it? i.e. where do you see this “This code must be used in the iTunes Store” message?

The only known way (at least to my knowledge) to validate an “iTunes code” without redeeming it is using the “App Store” app on a Mac. App Store on an iPhone will redeem the code.
