Can’t add any cards to Apple wallet

Every time I try to add a card to my Apple wallet it says this iCloud account can not be used for Apple Pay, how can I fix this so that I can add cards? I have tried everything like signing in and out of my account restarting my phone and the region, I’ve done everything that I can see please someone what should I do?

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13

  • If you are getting a message to contact the card issuer, call the bank or credit card company who issued you the card to make sure there are no restrictions on the card. 
  • If you are getting a message that Apple Pay services are unavailable at this time, sign out of your Apple ID and back in.
  • Check your Apple ID region to make sure it is correct (https://appleid.apple.com/)
  • Check the region on your device to ensure it is correct (Settings>general>language & region - set to your region)
  • A passcode is required to use the Wallet app. 
  • You need to be in a region that supports Apple Pay - Countries and regions that support Apple Pay - Apple Support
  • Your bank needs to support Apple Pay - Apple Pay participating banks - Apple Support
  • Sometimes if you sign out of your Apple ID and back in it resolves the problem.
  • If none of these suggestions are able to resolve your issue you can go here for further assistance - If you can't add cards to Wallet for Apple Pay - Apple Support
