Wallet will not sync from iphone to watch

Hello. I have a wallet on my phone that was synced to the wallet on my watch. Now new cards on the phone are not syncing to the watch. I've tried ll the obvious things including closing the wallet and then restarting both phone and watch etc .... to no avail. Any other idea?

Problem solved. It seemed to need the following steps in strict sequence.


  1. close wallet on phone
  2. shut down phone
  3. close watch
  4. restart phone
  5. open wallet on phone by starting the wallet app NOT by double clicking
  6. restart watch
  7. open the wallet on the watch by starting the app NOT by double clicking

Hello Johnwt51,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We see you have some questions about syncing new cards to your Apple Wallet, and having them show on your Apple Watch, and we'd like to help. You may find some help in the following article: If you can't add a card to Apple Wallet to use with Apple Pay


Also, as you're only seeing this on your watch, try to update your watch to see if the issue remains: Update your Apple Watch


Have a good day.
