Paypal not a valid payment method for family sharing

I have had paypal configured on my account for years.  But now, for some reason while trying to set up Family Sharing on my iPad, it thinks Paypal is not a valid payment method.  Should I be trying to set up Family Sharing from iTunes instead of my iPad?

I've read from others that at the preset time you have to use a credit card rather than a debit card.  If you're using a debit card you might try entering a credit card instead, at least until the debit card option is restored.

  • I already have a valid payment method for my iTunes account, but can't get past the Family Sharing setup prompt telling me to add a payment method . What to do?

    I already have a valid payment method for my iTunes account, but can't get past the Family Sharing setup prompt telling me to add a payment method . What to do?

    I had the same problem and found a bunch of others did, too.  Unfortunately all the posts had no responses!  Anyway, I previously had my payment method linked to my paypal.  I tried changing it to my credit card and it worked.  Don't know if there's a bug with using paypal but that seemed to be the culprit for me.  Good luck!

  • Additional payment options for Family Sharing I wish....

    I was not aware that each purchase would be billed to my credit card regardless of my iTunes balance. I knew I would be paying for all purchases, but not being able to use my account balance to pay it is extremely annoying. Prior to Family Sharing being available all their devices were under my id. So any gift cards they received were redeemed under my account. Now I have their money and can't use it to buy their things.
    My mistake for not following every link on the Family Sharing info page, but I read that I would be charged for purchases. I thought it would be the same way as any purchase I made (balance, then credit card).....
    I wish:
    There should be an option for:
    1) those who have a credit card be able to use it if they aren't on the "ask to buy" restriction. This includes both adults and other teens.
    2) as the Organizer--give me a choice on how I want to pay for the purchases. If i want to use my own balance, I should be allowed to.
    3) if this is how it's going to stay, then I should have the option as the organizer to transfer my balance to individual family sharing members as I see fit. Or allow me to 'gift' them the balance. Right now you can't use iTunes balance to buy a 'gift'.

    I understand that now...but the their gift cards had been redeemed to my account prior to having family sharing. So basically, for now, I will have to decline any of their requests and then purchase them through my own. They can then download them on their device.  I just wish there were alternatives...Thank you.
    Tminutes,
    Based on posts in this Forum, other Family Organizers have found themselves in that same dilemma.  If you would like to make the "additional payment options" suggestion directly to Apple, you can do so at the iTunes Feedback page:

  • Why not debit card for family sharing for minor children

    Apple is requiring credit card security code to prove you are an adult when setting up family share for under 13 child.  We don't use credit cards.  There is no reason they can't use the security code on a debit card.  This is silly.

    Hello ,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The organizer's Apple ID account does require a valid payment source, which includes both credit cards and debit cards.
    Setting up Family Sharing
    When you set up Family Sharing, you'll be asked to confirm that you agree to pay for purchases initiated by the family members you invite and that you have a valid payment method on file.

  • What is the payment method for iOS Developer Enterprise License?

    Can anyone help me with this question as Apple can't help me and I do not know who should I contact with. Apple staff is pushing me from developer contact to sales contact but none of them are giving me the simple answer to my simple question... T.T

    Hi Giles,
    Thanks for your response but Apple is not stating the payment method for Online Apple Store for Malaysia. I called up Apple Store Malaysia to ask about this and they mentioned that only credit card is available.
    I wondering how a company have a credit to provide the payment? Is there other alternative?

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Using those instructions you may also be able to select PayPal if that is allowed in your country.

  • Family sharing - one member get's message no valid payment method

    Hi there,
    I have family sharing enabled for my wife and two daughters. The latter can download stuff the app store and update apps. My wife however get's a message that there is no valid payment method attached to the family. But the three other members can download new stuff and update existing apps easily.
    It gets weirder when my wife leaves the family sharing cause she keeps getting the same message.
    iPhone 6, iPhone 5 and 5s working great. My wife has a 4s.
    Any clues how to solve this?
    Tnx a lot, Paul.

    Hi Nancy,
    I also found Note 445233 - FPY1: Separate exception indicator for 'amount check'
    "FPY1
    During the payment method check the system states that a payment method is not qualified, because the company code-specific amount limits (minimum amount and maximum amount per payment method and company code) prevent this (fields TFK042E-VONBT and TFK042E-BISBT).
    The result is the general exception indicator
    '006' No valid payment method found."
    Hope this helps

  • F110 - No valid payment method found for Customer Direct Debits

    Hi All,
    I am running customer Direct debit pre-notifications payment run via F110.
    I am runnnig only for one customer and it appears as an exception with the message 'No valid payment method found
    We have used payment method D lots of times before so it is nothnig to do with the company code or payment method set up.
    It is however the first we've tried to run for this customer.

    1) Payment method D selected in the F110 parameters
    2) Payment method D entered in the invoice line item
    3) Payment method D entered in the payment transactions tab on the customer master data
    4) Valid Direct Debit madate exists and check complete
    5) parameters are correct in the F110 selection - company code, payment method, dates, next payment date, invoice is well overdue, it was only entered today but was due back in 2014!, free selection, additional log etc.
    6_ Checked in SPRO in "Payment Method/Country" details and the following are required : Bank details including IBAN required, SWIFT code required, SEPA mandate required. These are all maintained in the customer master data.
    and still the customer invoice I want to pay is show as an exception in the log. In the payment proposal it shows as an exception No valid payment method found. In the log it shows as

    ... payment not possible because of reported error Message class FZ Message no. 311
    I am at a loss as to where to check next. Please help.
    thanks
    Jemma

    Hi Jenna,
    In the log I can see the message 'SEPA mandate & for bank xxx has been assigned to a contract' FZ788. This means: Mandates with contract cannot be used for the payment of any invoice. The invoice has to be assigned to the mandate or be assigned in the payment run.
    Please check the F1-help of the field 'SEPA Mandate: Contract Type' in the mandate.
    The Note http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1874892 describes the various options.

  • To download shared content, your family must have a valid payment method

    I'm trying to share movies bought on my account with my son and keep receiving the message "to download shared content, your family must have a valid payment method". I already have a credit card linked to my account. Help?

    Hi Mel3b,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with Family Sharing. If you are getting the "valid payment" alert message when you alreadyt have a credit card on file, you may want to try re-entering the card details on the account, even if you know they are currently correct.

    In most cases, you can't use a Debit card anymore. So, either redeem an iTunes gift card or use a credit card.

  • HT2731 "valid payment method and billing address"  not succeed

    I want to create an apple Id but when I filled section related to "valid payment method and billing address"  the process not continued to next step, what are you think about the problem? Pls help me, of course I fill my card No and other related info., correctly.
    Thanks

    Do you get any error messages when you fill in your card's details ? And you are trying to add a credit card, not a debit card (there have been a number of posts recently from people whose debit cards are being declined, and they are no longer listed on this page as being a valid payment method), and the card is registered to exactly the same name and address as you have on your iTunes account ?

    Can anybody help me?

    - For the standar iTunes account, Apple requires a valid payment method even for free apps and free updates.
    - It is normal for the security code not to be retained for security reasons.
    - You can create a spcial iTunes account that is only good for free apps by:
    Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card
    - You can contact iTunes if you know your payment method is valid.

  • In F110 I getting error No valid Payment method found but i did

But for another vendor its posting clearing this error occur only for particular vendor. Any can help me to rectify my error.

    Hello,
    We were get the same error message and found that the solution was that the vendor must have an address.
    In OBVU, Payment method / country, the required master record specs had Street checked on.  This reqiured an address for the vendor.  Once we entered an address the F110 payment run was successful for this vendor.

  • F110 error - No Valid Payment Method found - Account ID missing

    Hello All,
    I am trying to clear some Vendor invoices in F110 using a Payment method. We have entered the House Bank at the time of posting the Vendor Invoice (Invoice is posted through an BAPI) and I am able to see the House Bank in BSEG - HBKID.
    Further for the Payment Method we are using only one House Bank and one Account ID - which has been configured correctly in FBZP - Bank Determination.
    However when we are running F110 for clearing the invoices - we are getting an error no valid payment method found. I am able to see the Payment Method & the House Bank while editing the Proposal - only Parameter which is missing is Account ID - though we have maintained it in Bank Determination configurartion.
    Any help will be appreciated a lot to fix this issue.
    Thanks and regards,
    Ankur

    Dear,
    Everything may be alright but payment method is assigned to Bank Account in Bank selection section FBZP. So, system will process payment from the bank account with assigned payment method. So, there is no Account ID system is not able to find the payment method. It is difficult to provide remedy. If house bank and account ID is not in the vendor master then update them.
    Just try it out....all the best.
