If you have upgraded iCloud storage, it would take about 1 to 3 business days in order to process.
Once your request for iCloud+ has been activated, you should receive an invoice in your email box.
Check again after a few days.
Then you can check -> Go to -> Settings -> your name -> iCloud -> if you see 50 GB (or 200 GB or 2 TB) then you have an iCloud subscription.
If you have an iCloud subscription, you will receive a monthly bill from Apple, check your email box.
