  •  if you want to use your Apple Account balance, you need to set your Apple Account balance as your default payment.


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.

The account balance will always be the default when present. Don't try to fix this issue yourself; instead, contact Apple Support as described.


Raciya: Contact Apple Support means contact Apple Support. For some reason, it virtually never happens when someone tries to buy content other than in-app purchases, and therefore isn't simply an issue with the payment information.
