How do I do in-app purchase on my kids' iPads and get it charged to my iTunes credit?

iMore Question

I have my daughters on the family share plan with me. My question is how do I do in app upgrades on their iPads apps and get it charged to my iTunes credit? If they get approval from me and they buy an app it gets charged to my visa. I want it going to my store credit.

Odd... iTunes for me always taps store credit before payment method on file...

Re: App upgrades

I'm not sure. You might want to contact Apple in this regard.

Family purchases and payments - Apple Support

The way this reads it seems that the payment structure is that it uses the family member's store credit (if they have any) and then otherwise gets charged to the credit card.

It doesn't appear that there currently is an option for the family member's purchases to get charged to the Family Organizer's store credit.
