Prepaid Visa cards not adding to Apple Wallet

I had multiple prepaid Visa cards on my Apple Wallet. I tried to add another one, but for some reason it kept saying "Card Not Added". I tried logging out of my Apple ID and back in, which removed all the cards that I alreayd had, and when I tried adding them back, they also now say "Card Not Added". What do I do?

iPhone 8, iOS 16

… your card issuer is the ONLY entity who can assist you.


And card issuers frequently need some “polite but firm encouragement” to escalate you higher-level / more capable CSRs …


… as the “entry level” CSRs may often not even fully understand how ApplePay card provisioning works, much less how it can go astray …


… OR have the tools at their disposal on their screens to do anything about it.
