Payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID - Apple Support

If you need to change or update your Apple ID payment method - Apple Support

Then, see if these articles help:

How to redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card - Apple Support

What you can buy with your Apple Gift Card or Apple Account balance - Apple Support
