• Set up Apple Pay.
• Pay Participating Banks.
• Can’t add a card to Apple Wallet.

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.
