Hey Cities kid,



Thanks for the question. If you are using the iTunes Store for the first time with an existing Apple ID, you may be prompted for payment information. After providing the information, you can change your payment to “None”:


Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

If you're using the iTunes Store or App Store for the first time

If you're using the store for the first time with an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method. After you create the account, you can change your payment information to None.


If you're creating a new Apple ID, you might be able to create an account without entering your credit card details.



Thanks,


Matt M.
