WatchOS 3 and apple pay cards stuck activating?

[dictoresno]

went to add 3 other cards for apple pay (1 is already there and working) that are already set up on the phone on iOS 10 beta 1, but all of them are stuck on activating. anyone else having issues? rebooted both phone and watch and still no progress. also tried removing them and adding back with the same problem.

Stuck activating has been reported on wOS 1 and 2 so it's not unique to wOS 3.

Most likely it's from the card issuer's end.

Just had the same problem with watchOS 2, restarted both phone and watch a couple of times, and it worked in the end.

Ended up re-pairing the watch to resolve battery issues and after that, the card issues are resolved

Hours of phone calls and all I had to do was read this

Yep, unpairing and re-pairing should be the obligatory troubleshooting step for all and any problems before resorting to this forum or Apple.
