Disable Apple Pay constantly asking me to enter a credit card

I just updated my iPhone 6 Plus to 10.0.0.1, and aside from the minor and needless changes to the lock screen, I am periodically getting a notification from the Wallet App to add a credit card.

I have never and will never use Apple Pay. I don't care how secure it may be, or how convenient it may be I have no desire to use that feature and I am getting tired of seeing the notification pop up 5 times a day. I have looked through the settings and can't find anything about disabling anything to do with the wallet. Is there a way to disable and turn that off or is this another case of Apple telling people what they should really be doing with their phone?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 10

I just upgraded to iOS 11.01 and have no plans to use Apple Pay and I too found that there is no way to stop the constant prompting to "complete setup iPhone" or "Apple Pay" (it alternates). Why would a company that used to pride itself on ergonomic behaviors create such software?

I chose "set up later in wallet" and EVERY time I try to open messages for any purpose, it tells me I need to set up apple pay and asks me to click continue. So, yeah, that totally doesn't work.

I hate that Apple gives you things you don’t want and makes it hard to get rid of them. I’m thinking of different Phone next time.

I agree, and after this obnoxious display of coercion by Apple they can rest assured I WILL NEVER use Apple Pay.

I do not want Apple Pay on my phone, and don’t want to be reminded about it constantly.

Under IOs 11.2.6, go to settings-->wallet and apple pay-->Apple pay cash, turn switch off. And that's it. You can disable notifications as well, but this stops the setup request.

All you have to do to turn it off is go into your phone's settings and click "Wallet & Apple Pay.

I am on IOS 11.2.6
