Family sharing payment controls

Can someone who is not the organizer in a family sharing situation change the payment methods of the family sharing situation?

No.


Well, the only control they have is by adding balance to their own account. In that case Apple may try to use it first. The Organizer's payment method still has to be present (and working), though.
