This Apple ID has not yet been used in the iTunes Store. message

I'm an android user, but just bought an iPhone. I was going to sign up with Mint Mobile, so I was going to download the Mint app to activate the trial account. Everything was going fine, and my phone said it was installed. But then it told me that "This Apple ID has not yet been used in the iTunes Store." I tried to do that by tapping Review, and was told that I had to enter my Apple ID and password. But it only seemed to want the password. But when I enter the password, I'm just cycled back to it saying "This Apple ID has not..." again. And no download.

I suppose it's some newbie mistake of some sort, but I can't figure it out. Any help?

It wants to see you have a credit card or other valid method of payment even if you don't plan on using it.

If there is an option to select "Review" or "Continue" , select that and enter valid payment information if required. If there's problems doing this:

Tap Settings > [your name at the top] > Media & Purchases > View Account > Review Apple ID.
