I am unable to add any cards to Apple Pay! I checked everything
region is correct
have Face ID, password,etc.
my iOS is updated and it’s an iPhone 13 so my phone is compatible.
I did have my cards on there and I had deleted them I am trying to put them back on there.
iPhone 13, iOS 16
I suspect that you will need to contact your issuer and explain - perhaps repeatedly and forcefully - your situation.
I hypothesize that “relics” of your previous card installation still reside in key databases within the payments processing network which need to be “purged” … something ONLY your issuer can initiate.
Same thing occurred to me - under identical circumstances - several years ago, albeit fortunately w/ only ONE credit card.

There are many possible reasons you might be experiencing issues. So let’s start with a few basic steps. I’ve added links to support articles that may offer solutions to many issues you might encounter.

What error message do you receive when you try to add a card?
Card not added contact your card issuer…it gives me option add this card to wallet later or try again
i did contact them and the problem is not on their end.
I had my cards on their and I was going to get rid of this phone so I deleted them. I decided to keep phone and now I can’t put them back on.
Card not added
contact card issuer
then gives me option to save for later or try again.
I did have them on there and deleted them because I was gonna change phones. I decided not to change phones now I can’t put them back on
I have done all of those steps numerous times!!! And nothing is working
It even is happened with cards I never put into wallet
So much for that piece of the hypothesis … 🤔
I can not add card to Apple wallet. My cards are compatible, region is correct, device is updated and compatible I have password, Face ID Touch ID still won’t let me add any of my cards.
