iCloud uses the payment methods added to your Apple ID in the order they appear in.

I appreciate the attempt to help, and learned from the process. However, the only card that shows up is the one I use for music purchases and I would like to use it for the icloud program also. Unfortunately the card that is used for icloud is a different card and it never appears in my searches. If I lose all my photos stored on the cloud, I will be in trouble at home. The only place I see this card used is the monthly billing for icloud. Got no help from Apple.com/bill phone recording. Tried to get a person and it hung up. Thanks for trying.

As I said, the payment methods used for iCloud are the ones on your Apple ID. That means that the payment method that that you said is used for Apple music, should also be used for iCloud on that Apple ID, unless you have a different Apple ID for iCloud than the one you have for the the iTunes & App Stores.


If are using an entirely different Apple ID for iCloud, then you will need to log in with that account so you can change its payment method.


You can go to https://tv.apple.com and log in with the Apple ID you use for iCloud, to change its payment method there. Click on the user icon at the very top right of the screen, then on Settings, then on Manage Payments to Manage the cards used for your iCloud account.

Thanks for all your help, Phil0124. I hate to admit my ignorance to the world, but after all your help, feel obligated to do so. After getting to the same lack of success again, I looked at the last billing statement, I noticed it wasn't a 'charge' of $2.99, but a 'credit' of 2.99. I guess my next statement will show a credit of $5.98. Thanks with putting up with my struggles and I do appreciate all your help. Will look for the charge on the other credit card that I use at Apple. Appreciate your help.
