Unable to access locked iPhone's Wallet app without an entered payment card?

Hello.


Is there really no way to access locked iPhone (6+'s iOS v12.5.5, 11 Pro Max iOS v14.8.1, and 12 mini's iOS v15.1)'s Wallet app (showing passes) without an entered payment card? :( Or did I miss a way to do it from my web searches?


Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

iPhone 12 mini

Correct.


Method of Payment:

You need at least one Method of Payment in there. This is because for free apps, there are in-app purchases. So, add the new Method of Payment, and then remove the current Method(s) of PaymentGo Here: Change, Add, or Remove Apple ID Payment Methods - Apple Support
