Can I use my checking account to pay my iCloud

I was wondering if I can use my checking account to pay instead of my bank card?

I will have a new card tomorrow

Apple requires a payment card on file for subscriptions, though will deduct from the Apple ID balance first, which means you can use gift cards if you don’t want the deduction from the payment card. So… sort of.
