iTunes account creation not allowed when trying to test In-App Purchases

I have an app in the App Store and I want to test in-app purchases. I followed the steps described on the Apple website but I'm facing some problems.

When I try to log in in the iTunes in my application or in Settings/iTunes & App Stores, I receive the error:

iTunes account creation not allowed.

This Apple ID cannot be used with the iTunes Store at this time. Please try again later

I searched the internet but I found nothing about this. It seems like I am the first to encounter this kind of error.

Why cant I use my Apple account for in app purchases?

Make sure that you're signed in with the same Apple ID that you used to make the purchase. Make sure that in-app purchases are allowed on your device. Restart your device: Restart your iPhone.

Why can't I enable in app purchases?

Restart the device Tap Power off or Restart (depending on your device this text may be different). If needed, hold down the power button again to turn the device back on. Wait for the device to start back up. Re-open the app or game and check if the in-app purchase has been delivered.

How do I test in app purchases iOS?

Sign in to the App Store with your Sandbox Apple ID In iOS and iPadOS, the sandbox account appears in Settings > App Store after the first time you use the device to attempt a purchase in a development-signed app. There's no need to sign out of the non-Sandbox Apple ID. Sign in using a Sandbox Apple ID.

Looks like Apple has this poorly documented. Basically, you shouldn't log in with your sandbox user from that screen. Log in when actually prompted by your test IAP.
