Vérification of payment method
why is my payment method not being verified
iPhone 8, iOS 14
Question marked as
The resolution to this issue is often making sure you have entered a credit card or other valid method of payment even if you don't plan on needing to use 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.

Payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID - https://support.apple.com/HT202631
Review this document about what to do "If your payment method is declined in the App Store or iTunes Store" Click here --> https://support.apple.com/HT203005 It mostly just suggests you make sure your payment method is up to date or to try a different one. Apple is probably just checking with the system linking to your financial institution and asking if the payment method is valid. The system is providing a negative response. Make sure the name and address are entered exactly as it appears on your bills and that the 3 digit CVV is correct. Check with your financial institution about the status of your card.
