Subscriptions in Family Sharing

I have a subscription that predates my addition to family sharing, but the payments of that subscription are being shared. How do I return those payments solely to my iTunes account?

No. Cancelling and repurchasing while still in Family Sharing will not make them charge to you. They will still charge to the Family Organizer unless you have Gift card credit balance.


If you want to pay for them yourself, then you would need to leave Family Sharing or redeem gift cards onto your account that can cover their cost.


Family Sharing operates from the assumption that the Family Organizer pays for everything.
