You’ll need to redeem the Gift Card onto your account: link-> How to redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card - Apple Support

Once redeemed it will automatically be used for any purchases and recurring subscriptions you have, including iCloud Storage.

FYI: You cannot make a gift card a primary payment method. But you don’t need to. Just redeem it onto the account.

Ok, so I have the balance in there. How do I apply it specifically to keeping my iCloud storage up. I had problems with having my bank info paying the .99 a month. So I bought this card to just use that money.

Do you mean an Apple Gift card, or did you register for the Apple Credit Card?

The card has an assortment of numbers and letters. The primary payment method only wants numbers (like a credit or debit card) BTW, I appreciate you trying to help, I am technologically deficient.
