“Cannot verify payment information” means Apple could not validate the card with your bank.

Fixes include:

  1. Make sure Apple ID region = card region
  2. Re-enter ALL card and billing info manually
  3. Remove → restart → re-add card
  4. Call bank to unblock Apple pre-authorizations
  5. Clear any unpaid Apple charges
  6. Remove expired cards
  7. Try adding through the App Store

If none work → Apple must reset your billing profile.
