@thienlnam FYI I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors

This error is coming from the backend, and the code doesn't seem to have changed in a while. According to the code here we don't support setting up wallets with debit cards on purpose, so it's surprising that this test would have ever passed. It's not even a new test too, it was added in April 2023(?)

Sounds like this isn't a blocker then? We should actually change the error message here though

[francoisl]

I'm not sure... Maybe it is?

Curious why, is this a new flow that was just added on a PR that's on staging now?

Turns out this was probably happening on prod but wasn't tested there since it would require a real debit card
