If you update your payment method or add funds to your Apple Account 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.

You can have a credit- or debit card on file and an Apple Account balance.

Your default payment method will be used first by Apple when you need to make a payment.  

If you have set your Apple Account balance as your default payment method and you have a credit or debit card, you pay from your default payment method.

Some purchases might require you to have a credit card on file, even if you use your Apple Account balance to make the purchase.
