Apple Cash Set Up Looping?

Tried sending Apple Cash via iMessage today but it prompted me to “set up” Apple Cash again despite having it set up already.


When I go to set it up again, it gets stuck in a loop where I’ll click continue, use my face ID and then it says my card is set up but it still won’t let me send anything. Instead it just starts the “setting up” process over again.


So I’m overall stuck in a loop where I can’t send any apple cash and my card “needs to be set up.”

iPhone 14, iOS 18

mine was doing the same. ended up going to settings, wallet & Apple Pay, then scroll to transaction defaults. Make sure shipping address, email, phone number are all updated and selected. I also disabled all Siri learning options and disabled use on Mac. This worked for me.

Please try a forced restart of you device. If that doesn’t work, please contact an Apple Cash specialist.

Do you use a VPN, ever had VPN software or VPN profiles on your iphone? If so, the apps must be deleted along with the profiles. Once the files are deleted, the network settings need to be reset.



Reset your network settings

If you're using iOS or iPadOS 15 or later, tap Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.


If you're using iOS or iPadOS 14 or earlier, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you've used before.
