Have you had a payment method declined in the App Store or iTunes Store? If yes, see https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203005


Also note that before you can add funds to your Apple ID, you must have a valid payment method on file. Learn about the payment methods that you can use with your Apple ID. See how to Add funds to your Apple ID https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208687 Note that "after you authorize the payment, the funds ... [are credited] to your Apple ID. Then, you can use the credit to make purchases from the App Store or iTunes store. Need more help? Contact Apple support for help here: Get started


Also have you seen a message that says 'Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes' https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208856 If yes: "There might be a problem with the payment method that you have on file. ... When you see the message, don't try to edit any of your account information."
