Hi franzuela,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.


When you're apart of a family group, the payment method is not shared with the family unless the organizer has enabled Purchase Sharing enabled. With Purchase Sharing, any charges may by anyone in the family is charged to the organizer's payment method. Your husband can share purchased iCloud storage with you.


Use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to turn on purchase sharing
1. If you haven't set up Family Sharing yet, set up Family Sharing.
2. Open the Settings app.
3. Tap Family. If you don't see Family, tap your name, then tap Family Sharing.
4. Tap Purchase Sharing.
5. Tap Continue and follow the onscreen instructions.
6. To see which payment method will be billed, tap Purchase Sharing again and look at the Shared Payment Method information.
