You’ve just bought a new Garmin watch and you’re excited to try out the new Garmin Pay feature. But when you try to add a card, you get an error message saying “Garmin Pay not available.” Why is this happening, and how can you fix it? There are a few possible reasons why this might be happening, and we’ll go through them below. We’ll also provide some tips on how to fix the problem so you can start using Garmin Pay.
Why Garmin Pay Not Adding Card?
Sometimes, it may happen that you are not able to add a card to the Garmin Pay wallet. It could be due to a variety of reasons.
The most common reason for this issue is that the card you are trying to add is not compatible with Garmin Pay. Garmin Pay currently supports only a few types of cards, such as Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. If you are trying to add a card that is not supported, you will not be able to add it to your wallet.
Another reason for this issue could be that you are not entering the correct card information. Make sure that you are entering the card number, expiration date, and CVV correctly. Even a small mistake in any of these fields could prevent you from adding the card to your wallet.
In some cases, the issue could be with your Garmin device. If you are using an older device, it may not be compatible with Garmin Pay. Check if your device is compatible with Garmin Pay before trying to add a card.
Finally, the issue could be with your bank or credit card issuer. Some banks and credit card companies do not allow their cards to be added to digital wallets like Garmin Pay. Check with your bank or credit card issuer to see if they allow their cards to be added to digital wallets.
If you are still unable to add a card to your Garmin Pay wallet, contact the Garmin Pay support team for further assistance.

Have You Tried Using A Different Card?
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with your card. Have you tried using a different card to see if that’s the problem? If not, I would suggest trying that first. If you’re still having trouble, I would recommend that you contact the company that issued the card to see if they can help you. If you’re still having trouble after that, I would suggest that you contact the credit card company to see if they can help you. I hope that you’re able to get this problem resolved soon.
Summary
So, why isn’t Garmin Pay adding cards? The answer is complicated. But, it seems that the main reason is that they want to focus on their core product – the GPS watch. They don’t want to get into the payment processing business. That’s why they’re working with a company called Pay With Your Watch. This company will handle the payment processing for them. So, it looks like Garmin Pay will be adding cards in the future. But, for now, they’re focused on their core product.
