Error setting up Apple Cash for Minors on iPhone

I’m trying to set up Apple Cash for my 11 year old but when I click “set up Apple Cash” I receive an error that Apple Pay services are unavailable. I’ve looked through all the troubleshooting tips. Everything else is correct. I’ve gotten this error for months now. I don’t see any type of age restriction. Why won’t this work?

See the first bullet here. Apple Cash users must be at least 18 years old.
