There are two reasons: credit card fees and consumer psychology
Most credit card processors charge their customers (e.g. Apple) a per-transaction or monthly fee, and a percentage of the purchase.To save on fees, Apple often groups transactions together.

So, Apple waits to bill your card for a day or two in case you make more purchases that it can group together. It's cheaper and more efficient to bill you once for buying 10 items than to bill you 10 times for 10 individual purchases.
