My App Store tells me that the Apple ID hasn’t been used in iTunes

I am having trouble with my App Store. When I download something it tells me that the Apple ID hasn’t been used in iTunes and when I press review it ask me for the password and when I put it, it takes me back to the App Store.

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. The document 'If you can't remove your last payment method or use no payment method with your Apple ID' mentions "if you're using an existing Apple ID with the App Store for the first time, you must provide payment information," in this link: https://support.apple.com/HT203905


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.

If you continue to have problems contact Official Apple Support - Select your region from the list and then your country from the pop-up window. If you do not see your country, see if there is an "other" listing for that region.
