You can check the available balance on your Apple Account by going to the App Store > your profile > Add Money to Account. It will say right above your email "Balance: $X.xx" or your local currency. If it says zero, you can redeem Apple gift cards to increase your balance.
When you make an in-app purchase, it will first use money in your Apple Account. If there is none or it runs out, it will charge the primary card you have added to your account.

You may still be required to have a valid payment method on file. It just won't be charged if there is enough money in your account. That is true even for free downloads, where no money would be charged. See step 2 here:
If you can’t download or update apps on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
If you have previously gotten games or apps through the App Store, you can download them again by simply going to the App Store > your profile > Apps, then searching for the ones you want. No purchase needed!
If you have a balance on your Apple Account, you can use that towards buying a new device, app purchases and in-app purchases, or accessories from the Apple Store.
No I mean like spend money on packages in the games I download to keep playing … the packages cost money
When I try to buy anything it says do add credit card or PayPal… it won’t take the money off my apple account first and I checked the balance there is more then enough money on it
How can I use Apple Account credit for previously downloaded games?
