Hi Chris.Yes, if you sign up to a subscription whether it is for an app, I Cloud storage plan or Music Match, Apple requires a valid payment method other than store credit vouchers to be associated with your account for renewal purposes and to verify your location only. Note that if you have a store credit balance at the time of renewal of any of the products on subscription associated with your Apple ID, you will not be charged as the payment will be collected from your credit balance.
All the best, Ibrahim.-----Original Message----- From: Chris H

In preparation for iTunes Radio coming to the UK by early 2014, I have subscribed to iTunes Match to get an ad free experience. My question is this. When I signed up, I was asked to edit my payment details, since I had it set to none. All was well and I was successfully subscribed. I checked my e-mails this morning, and I got the receipt, but the subscription came out of my store credit. This is slick, but why did Apple need a valid credit card on file in the first place? Is this for automatic renewals or something? Any comments greatly appreciated.
