Why did you change my payment method on my iCloud extra storage

I received a notice that my iCloud .99 cent charge was billed to my Apple Card, this was not authorized by me, because you have a Visa card on file..I also looks like one of app charges will be charged next month on the Apple Card...I do not use that Card and want to know why you used it to make that monthly payment

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.4
