Apple cutting off payment source changes for older iOS, MacOS, and TVOS systems

In an email going out to customers, Apple is alerting people that the cutoff prevents payment switches in iOS 4.3.5, OS X 10.8.5, and Apple TV Software 4.4.4 or earlier. Customers will still be able to access iTunes and the App Store, including making new purchases and downloading previous ones, but will have to use whatever payment method they selected before the end of June assuming that they have no other devices to change the information.
The change is related to unspecified back end security improvements for these services.
These changes may not effect the Marjory of users running iOS 11 (or above starting this Fall).
