See this article about updating payment methods on various platforms (iPhone, Mac, etc.): If you need to change or update your Apple ID payment method - Apple Support

"If you change your address, the credit or debit card information that you use with your Apple ID might be automatically updated by your financial institution, and you don't need to take action. But if there's an issue [such as you having a subscription or being a Family Sharing Organizer], add a new card first, then remove the old card."


Update your payment method on a Mac

1. Open the App Store.

2. Click your name or the Sign In button.

3. Click Account Settings.

4. Next to Payment Information, click Manage Payments. (If you're using an older version of macOS, click Edit next to Payment Type.)

5. Click Add Payment, then enter the new payment method. Click Done.

Problem is there is no 'Add Payment' shown and I can't remove the old card.

I have 5 cards in Apple Pay.

How do I change the payment card?

Your iCloud+ subscription is charged like all payments, using the top payment method and charging down the list until one works (if applicable/you have multiple methods added). You need to have at least one working payment method (preferably the top one) - If you need to change or update your Apple ID payment method - Apple Support

Note: make sure to reorder the default card to the top once you have added the new card. I do find it interesting that I can't do this with my phone on the app store. Tsk Tsk apple nudging people to get into the ecosystem lol.
