Review Apps and Books payment and billing information in Apple Business Manager
In Apple Business Manager, you can manage your Apps and Books payment method, view app purchase history, and review your payment history. When you change your payment method, any future billing is directed to the new payment method. Billing that’s in progress continues to use the original payment method. You can also maintain a store credit. This allows you to purchase apps using a purchase order (PO) account.
When you add a new credit card, make sure the limit on the credit card is sufficient for purchasing apps for your organization. If a credit card has reached a specified limit, you may be asked to remove licenses or increase your credit limit.
