If you want to turn it off, see the following from Use Touch ID on iPhone and iPad - Apple Support

Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode to manage these settings:

Turn Touch ID on or off for Passcode, iTunes & App Store, or Apple Pay.

The number of tries for your fingerprint to be recognised, by TouchID, is not configurable.

TouchID is deliberately designed to fall-back to primary authentication (your device passcode) after a predetermined number of failed attempts. This allows your passcode to be rapidly used if your fingerprint is not readable by the TouchID sensor.
