If you want to make purchases or update / download apps, including free apps, you need to update your payment method or add a new one

•           If you want to change your card, add first the new card, then remove the old one.

•           or set your Apple ID balance as your default payment.

If you update your payment method or add funds to your Apple ID balance, It would take about 1 to 3 business days in order to process.

If you're still unable to update your payment method, Contact Apple Support.

Read this support article very carefully:--> If you can’t download or update apps on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


If the issue persists, I suggest that you contact iTunes Store Support Team directly, using this specific link:--> Apple Support

(if you get no help, look at the bottom of the above link, where you can contact them using "chat" or "phone" options).
