Apple watch not giving me the option to add a card

So I have Metro PCS service on my phone and wanted cellular on my watch so I got a separate line with T-Mobile for my watch. I set up the Watch as if it was for someone else without an IPhone.

I'm able to connect my watch to my phone over the Watch app but when I try to add a card in the wallet section. It only gives me the option to Add Apple Account or Transit Card.

On my watch it gives me the 2 same options.

Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 8

Pilerman - just a quick tip. You can edit your post within 15 minutes of submitting it. You’ll see a little pencil icon at the lower right of the post. I’m not saying you have to as there is a certain logic, at times, to creating a second one. Just wanted to make sure you’re aware of the option. And, if you already were, never mind. ;-)

I was aware and believe you me, I use it a lot fixing typos 😂

I also do use it to add things or to clarify, but then there are times when I have to consider that maybe they are only reading their emails and not actually returning to the forum.

In this case here, I felt that it was best to ping their email with my findings.


Nonetheless, your reply is still helpful to others and therefore, I marked it as helpful (I was the second person).


Thank you for everything that you do for this community and maybe someday we'll get to message each other in the lounge ;-)
