Can’t add card to Apple Pay

Going through settings or through the Wallet App, I keep getting the message when I tap "Add Credit or Debit Card". It says "Could not add card, try again later or contact your card issuer for more information".

This is on an iPhone 6 Plus that was formerly my phone that I've now switched over to my wife. We are setup with as Family members on iCloud which is tied to a Visa debit card. My wife is using her own iCloud ID on the phone, and I want to setup her Visa debit card to Apple Pay which is tied to the same bank account.

I've tried everything I can think of for the last two days and can't get passed that message.

I had the exact same problem. Here's a simple trick that finally worked for me. Go into settings > Touch ID and Passcode and turn Passcode off. Exit and open wallet. Go to add card and it will prompt you to turn Passcode back on. Do it through the prompts. When you go back you will now be able to add a card. Hope it works!

Hey Smc11 - was it the mac payments option that worked for you?

Glad you've got your card back on your watch!! 🙂

I have done absolutely nothing since I posted this. I just went in and selected Add Card on the iWatch App and it added without a problem.

It doesn't prompt you. You're mistaken.
