Time to unlink your credit cards.

Apple finally approved PayPal as a payment method for iTunes, Apple Music, iBooks and the App Store.

The feature is available in Canada and Mexico first, and U.S. users will get the ability to link their PayPal accounts to iTunes "soon after," PayPal said. Other countries will soon get the capability, too.

Anyone who wants to start paying with PayPal instead of their credit or debit card can select PayPal as their payment method in their account settings. That'll switch all future Apple purchases in these categories to the user's PayPal account.

PayPal will work for any Apple device you make a purchase on — MacBook, iPhone, Apple Watch, and AppleTV included.

Then wait for those iTunes purchases to hit your PayPal balance.
