Manage the payment methods that family members use

When you set up Family Sharing and turn on purchase sharing, one adult in the family – the family organiser – will control a single shared payment method for everyone in the family group.

If you're the family organiser, you can add multiple payment methods to your own Apple ID, but your family members can only use the first payment method in the list. If a family member can't make a purchase, the family organiser can move a different payment method to the top of the list.
