Why does my payment method keep failing?

I’ve entered different cards and they all say “failed” after verifying the payment method. And since it keeps failing, my iCloud + isn’t being paid for. How do I get it to verify?

iPhone 8, iOS 15

Troubleshooting Methods of Payment:


A. See this Link: If your Payment Method is Declined in the App Store or iTunes Store - Apple Support


B. Can't Delete a Payment Method?

  • Add the new payment first. Then, delete the current one.
  • Contact your financial institution (i.e. bank), allowing this to occur. I may be seen as a scam, being something you many not perform to often.


C. Whom to Contact:

Contact Apple Support:

As you may suspect, no one here would know the answer to this. So, contact Apple Support. The'll see what has occurred, and will run you through the fix. Here is the information for contacting Apple Support:

Apple Phone Support:

  • Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due do lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
