Seems Apple requires a payment method is listed in an Apple Account, for the first time we use the App Store or iTunes, even if we only download free items..

If you haven't : You can check you are signed in (to your device) with your correct Apple Account details

See which payment methods Apple can accept in your country or region:

Payment methods that you can use with your Apple Account - Apple Support

and

Apple support's online article may help:
