You must have a payment method if you download any apps that have in-app purchases, or that have subscriptions. You also may need to have a payment method to verify your identity. If this is the only reason you may be able to remove it later.
Also, if you DO have a payment method, it must be a valid one that is verifiable with the issuer. You can’t leave an expired payment method on your account.
