I deleted an app on my iPhone because it was not working. How do all it and why do I have to pay for it? What is going on here?

I deleted an app from my iPhone, because it was not working now it will not allow me to reinstall the app without having a payment method?

You need a valid payment method on file with Apple to download apps because of in-app purchases.

If the app is free, or you previously purchased it, you won't be charged
