    Hello rickfromjackson,

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. I see you're inquiring about password options when purchasing in iTunes.  I'm happy to help. Here's some information about password preferences along with a link to help manage these preferences.

    You have two password options to choose from with paid and in-app purchases:

    • Always Require: When you make a purchase, you'll always be asked to enter your password, even if you're signed in with your Apple ID.
    • Require After 15 Minutes: When you make a purchase, you'll be asked to enter your password only every 15 minutes.

    You can turn off password protection for free items on your iOS device or computer if you don't want to enter your password when downloading free songs or apps, but you can't completely turn off password protection for paid items.

    Manage your iTunes Store and App Store password preferences 
     

    Have a wonderful day!
