Can't add to Apple wallet

I have no trouble adding a payment card to Apple Wallet, but I can't add any kind of ticket, membership card, etc. Even when there is an "Add to Apple Wallet" button. I keep clicking the button but nothing happens. This has occurred with numerous tickets, membership cards, etc.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

Hi rojack1,

welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.

You may need to check:

✽. that your iPhone is updated to the latest iOS version:

About iOS 16 Updates - Apple Support says iOS 16.5


✽. that you are signed in (to your iPhone) with your Apple ID:

Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support


Wondering if Apple Support's online articles (links below) can help:


See what kinds of cards can be added:

How to: Keep cards and passes in Wallet on iPhone – Apple Support


Add a transit card in Apple Wallet


Top up your transit card with Apple Pay


Use Express Mode with cards, passes, and keys in Apple Wallet


US only : States of: Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Maryland

Add your driver's license or state ID to Apple Wallet


All the best :-)

The only other requirements that come to mind:

When setting-up Apple Pay, Apple says:

"Make sure that you sign in to iCloud on all your devices.

On your iOS device, you need to set up Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode".

If there's no problem there:

You may want to check things out with the Apple Support Team:

Eg: There is a "Get Support: start now" link (online chat, phone, eMail etc) at the bottom of the two websites (links below):


Apple Pay - Official Apple Support

or

iPhone - Official Apple Support

or

Apple phone numbers around the world:

Not all countries support Apple Pay / Wallet:

Check if Apple Pay is available in your country or region

Wondering if you get instructions on the screen when you try to add a ticket etc:


Add, use, and share boarding passes, tickets, and other passes in Apple Wallet - Apple Support

Eg: says:

    1. "Open the app, email, notification, or other communication that contains your boarding pass, ticket, or other pass.
    2. Tap Add to Apple Wallet
    3. Follow the instructions on the screen.
    4. If necessary, tap Add in the upper right corner."

Thank you, but none of this helps. My IOS is up-to-date, I am signed in with my Apple ID, and all those articles advise me to do exactly what I am doing, but none if it is working. On tickets, passes, etc., I get an "Add to Apple Wallet" button, just as the articles say. I press on it, and nothing happens. Sometimes a line flashes below the URL bar indicating an attempt to follow a link, but it doesn't result in a new link, and it doesn't get anything into my Apple Wallet. Please help if you can, and thank you.
