It is possible there is a hardware restriction as you bought the phone from a region that cannot use Apple Pay, but it is more likely the way you set up the phone.


Make sure you have set up the phone from scratch with Australia as the region with Australian payment cards.

You may have difficulty getting support from Apple Australia as you did not buy it in Australia. You certainly do not have any warranty there.
