Gift cards are specifically for use at the merchant that issued the card. If you have a generic Visa, Mastercard or American Express gift card, they may be added to Apple Wallet for use with Apple Pay. The bank that issued the card needs to support Apple Pay. If the bank doesn’t support Apple Pay, the generic card cannot be added to Apple Wallet.
