Hi
Correct, any balances on a family member's account will be used first,
then the credit card shared by you the organizer.

Hi Kevin,
It is family after all and I assume you wouldn’t add family members to family
sharing if you weren’t getting along with them. Therefore, just make sure they
understand that any purchases they make come off your card and arrange for them
to pay you back. I believe there is an alternative, though, and that would be
for them to buy an iTunes gift card and add it to their account. I am pretty
sure that any purchases they make from their own Apple Id come off the gift
card balance first. On the other hand, if you find a good deal on a gift card
like sometimes when you can buy them for 20% off, you can safely add them to
your account without the balance getting used up by family purchases. All
purchases made by a family member are billed to the credit card on file and I
know this for sure because I have a balance on my account and when my wife
purchases something it is billed directly to the card on file.
Take care,
Sieghard

Subject: Is there a way for a user of a family account to have purchases go to
their own account?
Hi.
I was going through email today, when I got an interesting surprise. I saw
that my Brother purchased an iTunes song through my family sharing. I set this
up so that he, my Mom and my Dad could use iTunes music, so I don’t want their
purchases in iTunes to come off my card. Is there a way to have them have
their own info in iTunes for purchasing items, and, at the same time share the
family setting of music?
Just curious.
