Hi TessaBailey24,

The resource below will explain how to create an iTunes store account without a credit card.  I've highlighted some key information for you below.  Click on the link for complete details.

Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method

If you already have an Apple ID

If you've already created your Apple ID, you'll need to add a payment method when you first use it to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. But you can optionally remove the payment method after you sign in to the store. You won't be asked for a payment method again until you make your first purchase.

If you don't have an Apple ID

If you haven't created your Apple ID, follow the steps below to create one and a store account at the same time, without adding a payment method.

On an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

On a Mac or PC

Happy New Year!
