In-app purchases and Apple Pay problem

When I make in-app purchases it all goes on my mom's debit card, even if I don't have and never had her card in my Apple Pay. When I using apple cash or just buying apps from apple store, it takes money from my Apple Pay primary card. From the picture below you can see, that's in-app purchase, and when I choose something to pay, it doesn't use my debit card, and doesn't give me an option to use my Apple Cash card, or my debit card.

iPhone XS, iOS 13

Hi,

This is using App Store billing with Apple Pay. As such, you can't change your payment method for each purchase (unless you change your priority billing method every time.) For App Store payments, including in-app purchases, it bills whichever payment method is prioritized. You can change this by doing the following steps:

  1. Opening App Store
  2. Tapping your Apple ID picture at the top right
  3. Tapping your name
  4. Tapping Manage Payments
  5. Tapping Edit
  6. and then moving your preferred payment methods to the top


Hope this helps!
