iCloud storage purchase

I purchased 50 gb of iCloud storage for my iMac at .99 per month several weeks ago. How do I pay for it? Can I pay through the App Store? I think the storage may also carry over to my iPhone.

Hello muriel,


It will be automatically deducted from your account; first from any balance you have in your Apple ID balance and then from a payment method you set up if you do not have enough balance.


Read the links below about various ways to pay for items in the iTunes and App Stores.


- Add money to your Apple ID balance - "With the payment method that you have on file, you can add funds to the Apple ID that you use for iTunes & App Store and iCloud Storage purchases."

- Payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID - https://support.apple.com/HT202631


then


Change, add, or remove Apple ID payment methods - https://support.apple.com/HT201266


- Create and add money to an iTunes Pass - "At Apple Stores and select retailers, you can add store credit directly to the Apple ID that you use for App Store, iTunes Store, and iBooks Store purchases." - https://support.apple.com/HT203021


- Redeem App Store & iTunes Gift Cards, Apple Music Gift Cards, and content codes - https://support.apple.com/HT201209



Remember, you are not buying more storage, it is a subscription and you are renting it on a monthly basis.
