Unless you followed the instructions on theis page when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then you will need to enter credit card details before the account can be used to download any item from the store - you should then be able to remove the card's details.
As long as you are buying content for yourself (you can gift from your balance) then your balance should be used up first before your credit card is charged : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
