I made a few purchases in a game on the App Store, something I've done before without issue. I received the items, but the payments still haven't shown up on any of my cards, and it's been five days. I typically buy from this app but usually just once every few days. However, this time, I bought three items in one day—two in the morning and one at night. I've read that buying multiple items might delay the payment process, but I'm curious if this kind of delay is normal. I'm a bit embarrassed to contact support because my Apple ID email is a bit childish. Can anyone share their experiences or advice on what I should do?

It's usually best to wait a bit longer. Sometimes payments can take a while to clear, especially if you made multiple purchases at once. Just hang in there!
From what I understand, sometimes the system holds payments if you're buying multiple items to save on transaction fees. Just chill and give it a bit more time. They’re looking out for you!
That makes sense! I haven’t bought anything else since that last purchase, so I'm just waiting. Thanks for the info! How long do you think it usually takes?
So it’s normal for it to take this long? It’s my first time doing it all on my own, so I wasn’t sure how it works.
