How can I choose which payment method to use for iTunes / App Store purchases?

I have several payment methods saved in my account (Settings > My Name > iTunes & App Store > View Apple ID > Manage Payments) but I don’t want to use the same method for every purchase. How can I choose which one to use prior to making a purchase?

iPhone 11, iOS 13

Hey inklingofperfection,


We understand you're needing help prioritizing your payment methods for use on your Apple ID. We'll be happy to assist.


"Change the order of your payment methods:

Tap Edit, then use the move order icon to rearrange your payment methods. Apple will attempt to charge payment methods in order from top to bottom. You can't change the order in which Apple ID balance is charged."


For more info, check out:


Change, add, or remove Apple ID payment methods


Take care!
