How to cancel pending in-app purchases after payment failed?

Hello, I accidentally made several in-app purchases in a game. The purchases are still pending and my payment method failed. I would like to cancel these pending purchases before any payment is processed. Could you please help me remove them?

iPad Air, iPadOS 26

A failed purchase is a default, and your account will be deactivated, and you will not be allowed to use it until you have made arrangements with Apple to pay the debt. You won't be able to download new apps, update current apps or redownload past purchases. Not even free apps.
