You can have a credit card / 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 CC / debit card, you pay from your default payment method.
If you have 2 CC, and you have set one CC as your default payment method that will be charge by Apple.
See the following Apple articles:

If you can't remove a payment method
If you have subscriptions like iCloud+, have an unpaid balance, or you use purchase sharing, you must keep at least one payment method on file.
- Do you have a subscription? You can cancel iCloud+ and cancel other subscriptions from Apple. When your subscription period is over, remove your payment method.
- If you're in a Family Sharing group and you use purchase sharing, the family organizer must have a payment method on file. If you're the family organizer, turn off purchase sharing, then remove the payment method.
- If you have an unpaid balance, you might not be able to remove a payment method. Instead, change your payment method.
- If you still can't remove a payment method, contact Apple Support.

fyi: Not all credit & debit cards seem to work with App Store / iTunes Store, try a different one, or preferably a credit card. If your card is not accepted as a paymenf method, you need to contact your bank.
