Family Sharing

In Family Sharing, is there a way for each individual family member to set up their own individual payment method, such using their own credit card or bank? I would prefer their purchases not be charged to my credit card.

Family Sharing How do you share family purchases, however, add personal payment methods for individuals within the family? This is a novel idea to use Family Sharing but the limited options are rather useless as their aren’t really any “Options” for us users to choose from.

Family Share - Individual Payment Methods Hi I am the Owner of my family’s Family Share and cannot see a way to allow purchase sharing whilst also requiring that each family member have their own payment methods for their purchases. Is this something that can be done? Or are we limited to only sharing subscriptions? If this cannot be done are there plans to allow for this in the future and if so is there an approximate timescale that it will be implemented? -Monk

Hello.

Yes, there is. Share purchases must be turned off on all Apple IDs and then it will be available.
