Adding credit card to Apple Wallet

I recently upgraded to iPhone 12 Pro from iPhone 7. When I am trying to add my credit card to the Apple Wallet in my new iPhone 12 Pro I get the following error:

Could Not Set Up Apple Pay

An error occurred while setting up Apple Pay

I had my credit card on my iPhone 7, and my Apple Pay used to work flawlessly.

I even signed out and signed back in on my iPhone 12 Pro, but still getting the same error. I have the latest software update, iOS 14.3.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14

Sometimes if you sign out of your Apple ID and back in it resolves the problem.

Make sure you are using the latest iOS/macOS update.

Check your Apple ID region to make sure it is correct. If it is correct, you may need to select the same region again. (Change your Apple ID country or region - Apple Support)

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
