Q: how do I verify payment information to rent a movie on Apple tv?

Log into your iTunes account on a computer and confirm the payment information.

If the issue persists, contact iTunes customer support.

This is a rubbish answer. Exactly how do you verify payment information.

And that's a response from someone lazy

Here ya go! Amazing how a simple search on any browser for "iTunes payment" brings up the directions your looking for. But I guess it's easier to open an account in a user community find a 2 year old post and spout off...

Change or remove your Apple ID payment information - Apple Support

Since it's a new device on your iTunes account, Apple wants to make sure someone is not using your Apple TV to rent movies without your authorization.  I got the same message yesterday and they were prompting me to enter the 3 digit security code from my credit card as the verification.  I actually could do it on the Apple TV but since I did not have the card handy, I backed out and then got the message you seem to be getting.

Try logging into iTunes on your computer and reenter your 3 digit code for your credit card and see if that clears it up.

That's funny actually. The thread is over a year old and you've said nothing different than what I said, the difference is you choose to make derogatory comments about me.

Please note that I was responding to rmedland who responded today to your post from over a year ago...
