Apple Account and Apple Pay
App Store purchases and Apple subscriptions use Apple Account payment methods. This is separate from Wallet: adding a card to Apple Pay does not automatically attach it to every subscription. Apple determines which payment methods are eligible for your account’s region.
Add the card to your account
- On iPhone, open Settings → your name → Payment & Shipping. Sign in to your Apple Account if requested.
- Select Add Payment Method and enter the card and billing information displayed in SafePay.
- Save and check the payment method. Purchase the item or subscription, then check its status and renewal date.
Change the account region only when appropriate for your actual situation and Apple’s rules. A change may require spending the remaining balance, ending subscriptions and waiting for pending purchases; content availability may change.
