As explained at the top of this article : “One adult in the family — the family organizer — pays for everyone's purchases after purchase sharing is set up.” If you want to be financially independent you can be but you also will not be able to access subscriptions or other content purchased by other members of the family.

r/applehelp on Reddit: Can’t add new payment method
September 26, 2023 -

I tried to Google this, but I couldn’t find anything that describes my exact problem. I cannot add any new payment methods to my account, as in the button that says “add payment method” is grayed out. I even went to appleid.apple.com to see if it would work there.

There is an existing payment on there, but that’s my mum’s PayPal and I want to add my own debit card. the issue is that I can’t add at all, it doesn’t give me the option, so region has nothing to do with it. Is it because I am 17?
