payment & shipping is only available if I reinstall Apple Music

So I removed the Apple Music app because (1) I never used it (2) I had some trouble with it in CarPlay. Everything seemed right but now I wanted to update my credit card information under "Payment and Shipping" and surprisingly I get the message "Restore “Music”? To continue, download “Music” from App Store.” and I only have the option to “Show in App Store” or “Cancel”.

Why do I need the Music App to make changes on my credit card information?



iPhone SE, iOS 16

Salutations brussz, 


Though here, as a community of other Apple users, we can’t speculate on why something is how it is perhaps we can provide some steps for alternative methods to add or update a payment method. 


Form the following article - Add a payment method to your Apple ID - Apple Support


Add a payment method on your Mac
1. Open the App Store.
2. Click your name. If your name doesn't appear, click the Sign In button, sign in with your Apple ID, then click your name.
3. Click Account Settings.
4. Next to Payment Information, click Manage Payments. (If you're using an older version of macOS, click Edit next to Payment Type.)
5. Click Add Payment.
6. Enter the payment method details, then click Done.

Add a payment method on your Windows PC or Microsoft Surface
1. Open iTunes.
2. In the menu bar at the top of the iTunes window, tap or click Account, then tap or click View My Account.
3. Sign in with your Apple ID.
4. Tap or click the Manage Payments button next to Payment Information. (If you're using an older version of iTunes, tap or click the Edit button next to Payment Type.)
5. Tap or click Add Payment.

Add a payment method online
If you want to keep more than one payment method on file, add the payment method in Settings on iPhone or iPad, in the App Store on Mac, or in iTunes on your PC. When you edit payment information online at appleid.apple.com, additional payment methods might be removed from your account automatically.
1. Go to appleid.apple.com.
2. Tap or click Sign In, then sign in with your Apple ID.
3. Tap or click Payment Methods.
4. Tap or click Manage payment method.
5. Enter your payment information, then tap or click Update.

Apple will attempt to charge payment methods in order from top to bottom. You can't change the order in which Apple Account balance is charged.


Thanks.
