If you can’t add a payment method

Make sure you’re using a payment method that matches your country or region, and check your settings.

• Is your payment method accepted in your country or region? Check what payment methods you can use with your Apple Account.

• If you’re using an accepted payment method but your Apple Account is set to a different country or region, change your country or region.

• If the Add button is greyed out, you may be in a Family Sharing group and using purchase sharing. Only the family organiser can have a payment method on file. If you want to use your own payment methods, turn off purchase sharing, then add your own payment method.

• Double-check that your name, billing address and other information is spelt correctly and matches what you have on file with your financial institution.

• Some payment methods require you to verify yourself through your financial institution’s app, text message or another method. Contact your financial institution for help if you’re unable to verify yourself.
