"Your credit card is about to expire" error every time I try to purchase an app in App Store

i’m dealing with the same issue. i just put the money i needed into my apple card from my bank card and that let me make purchases. hopefully they have the problem solved soon.

Thank you! It worked for me! Remove card from settings/wallet and re add same card. Good looking out

Same issue. Notably (and I don't believe this has been mentioned yet), it gives me the same error no matter what credit card I choose. So it clearly has nothing to do with any particular card; it's Apple.

Haven't had a chance to try anything on a computer yet, but I'll try that later if I get around to it.

I'm sure hundreds of merchants are losing money because Apple isn't addressing this. 🤷‍♂️

This is the exact thing happening to me today. I also called Apple and the customer service person mentioned something about users entering incorrect card expiration dates on their cards which doesn’t make any sense because I’ve been using my card for a couple of years now and it doesn’t expire till 2026. But I submitted a different card, deleted my original card and re-entered it just to be sure about the expiration date and it’s still happening.

I fixed this issue on my end by removing the cards and simply reentering them back into Settings > Payment & Shipping. I did not go through the Apple Wallet to do this. I’m now able to continue making app purchases. Hope this helps!

There is DEFINITELY something wrong… I tried removing my card in the payment portion in settings. It said I needed at least one form of payment on file. So I tried adding a card with expiration 2/25 and it said I can’t add a card whose expiration date is in the past (“credit card expiration year must be between 2023 and 2043”). So there’s something wrong with the date that Apple’s systems are set to.

True, not when you are making a purchase. You have go to login to your Apple Account to manage your payment information which includes updating the expiration date and CCV which have been removed ... yes, it is a Apple glitch, which hopefully they will be able to resolve soon

Hey if your card is good for another year you just need to update your info through App Store, go to your account and go to “manage payments” and it’ll say expired but just remove and add your card info back all over

Wow so got the email saying my card is expired, it hasn’t, and have been trying to buy some music - read all the comments and just removed the “expired” card from Apple Pay went back on to iTunes and it finally worked without sending me to setting to sign in etc - thank you, I will now add the card back to Apple Pay or maybe a different card just in case

This actually worked! Thanks for the help. Remove from wallet in Setting, Apple ID, Payment and Shipping. It will say your card is expired because all Apple Pay accounts expired the end of December 2023. I wish Apple would’ve been more forthcoming on this. I seriously considered cancelling all my subscriptions after this debacle.

I had exactly the same issue and also thought it was a spoofing attack until I read this post. I deleted my cards and re-added them and it worked fine. Quite a hassle really... you would Think Apple would have figure this out by now.

(2/2) In the meantime, I deleted and re-added within Settings without a hitch — and this was my only payment method and I have three active Subscriptions:

I also re-linked my card to Apple Pay.

Doesn’t seem to be linked only to the expiration year 2027. Perhaps it’s US Bank cards? Visa? Cards with pictures of puppies on them?

I just downloaded a few apps from the App Store and have had no issues there; I’ll report back if I encounter another problem.

This. Just got off phone w/ Apple Support after close to 30 min and trying to deal with this on my own after coming home fm work to a legit Apple email saying my AppleTV sub could not be charged.. Card not expired, no issue with having the funds. Took alot of fooling around and multiple efforts with the competent Support person, but finally got it resolved. She told me it was 100% an Apple issue, a bit concerning yeesh

This exact same thing is happening to me. I have tried everything. I don’t know what to do next other than contacting Apple Support.

Had the same issue. Deleted the card from my apple wallet, then added it back from my iPhone.
