In app purchase/Gift card /Verification Required

So i have a $35 Gift card in my account and when i try to use it for in app purchases, games, podcasts, songs, etc it asks me to verify if i have a payment method, when i try to select the $35.18 in my account it brings me to a screen that says redeem or add money, i do not have an apple card or apple cash and i do not have a debit card at the moment but why should i need one if i have money on my account? It wont let me bypass or update it and its acting as if i do not have any money help please!!

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 15

This does not answer the question.

Because you use multiple Apple ID.

If you use the same Apple ID, you don't need to move the money.

Your Apple ID is the personal account you use with all Apple products and services. It includes the email address and password you use to sign in, as well as the contact, payment, and security details that you use with Apple.

You can’t merge multiple Apple ID accounts.
