If you can't download, make purchases or update apps, including free apps, you need to update your payment method or add a new one. If you already verified that a payment method is available in your country or region and you're still having trouble, learn more.

  4. Learn more about family purchases and payments.

App Store and iTunes


If you see a message that says "Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes," there might be a problem with the payment method that you have on file.


When you see the message, don't try to edit any of your account information. Instead, contact Apple Support for help.

Apple ID


If you can't unlock your Apple ID


If you use security questions with your Apple ID, or if you don't have access to a trusted device or phone number, go to iforgot.apple.com. Then you can unlock your account with your existing password or reset your password.


If your Apple ID is locked or disabled - Apple Support

You cannot add a Debit/Credit Card to Apple Pay if the county that you have chosen under the Apple ID does not support it. (e.g. India)

Adding Credit/Debit Cards to Apple Wallet depends on the country that you live in --> Countries and regions that support Apple Pay



However, you may add any of the following passes/tickets

Adding Boarding Passes, Bookmyshow Tickets, IRCTC (Railway) tickets, Airline Tickets, Game Tickets and Hotel Bookings are only possible if the issuer has enabled the "Add to Apple Wallet" feature for the tickets/passes issued by them. See some examples below.





The card issuer must enable the "Add to Apple Wallet" feature.


You will find this in the Card Issue Document

  1. Tap Add to Apple Wallet.
