Apple Pay Cash is restricted to US residents over the age of 18.


If you are under 18, your parents will have to use Family Sharing to set up a Cash account for you that they will be legally responsible for.

The same thing is happening to me, I wonder if it’s some sort of bug... it kept saying failed to verify and I kept trying so I got tired and just put random info and it says verified but after I go to the Apple Cash card it says to verify again now sure what’s going on... my friend was able to send me money but I thought I’d you weren’t verified you can’t send or receive money
