Hello madicase,


if you want to get an app on the app store, the app is either free or paid, with the price on the initial download button. Unless you have not added a payment method - which can be anything from a credit card, PayPal to iTunes balance - you will not be able to purchase the app. Here's how you can Add money to your Apple Account balance.
