Adding Payment in iPhone

I’m unable to add a payment method as the “edit” option is grayed out…how do I update/add without being able to press anything in the manage payments screen?

iPhone 13, iOS 16

Hey Mpdrexel,


If you haven't already, check to make sure there are no restrictions turned on as this can block certain features. Those steps can be found here: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Prevent iTunes & App Store purchases 

You can also prevent your child from being able to install or delete apps, make in-app purchases, and more. To prevent iTunes & App Store purchases or downloads:

1. Go to Settings and tap Screen Time. 
2. Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions. If asked, enter your passcode.
3. Tap iTunes & App Store Purchases.
4. Choose a setting and set to Don't Allow.

You can also change your password settings for additional purchases from the iTunes & App Store or Book Store. Follow steps 1-3, then choose Always Require or Don't Require.


Let us know how it goes.


Take care!
