Apple Pay is not working

When I’m trying to add my card to the wallet, error message was appearing “Contact your card issuer for more information”, but when I called them and they provided me a new card it’s still the same issue

You might want to start by checking your region: ▷ Open Settings ➢ General ➢ Language & Region ➢ Region.


Now, here’s the fully detailed procedure to adding a card:⇣


Try the following:

  • Be sure to activate your card before attempting to add it to Apple Wallet.
  • Be sure card has not expired.
  • Be sure to verify all information on the card matches exactly.

If none of those work, then try linking the payment method:


Open Settings ➢ your name at the top of the list ➢ Payment & Shipping ➢ Add Payment Method.


Once the payment method has been added, you should have the option to link it to Apple Pay.
