Apple Store asks you to verify yourself with biometrics, to purchase any app as a security measure.


For a free app, using FaceID or TouchID doesn't deduct any value from your payment methods.


Any payment page will show a value that you will need to pay for, if there is none shown, then you are not paying any money.
