Answer 1

I have tried this many time. And getting same thing as you described. At last i were able to add test credit card for testing apple pay by following these steps:

1. Log out from your itunes and app store
2. Log out from iCloud
3. Change your region(Settings->general->Language and Region) to country which supports Apple pay
4. Now open Wallet app
5. You will be asked to login to iCloud account.
6. Login with your Sandbox Tester account
7. Now add Test credit cards to your account.

To get test credit cards details: You can check the cards details shown in this document: https://developer.apple.com/support/apple-pay-sandbox/

Note: When you add test credit cards, some credit cards detail might get failed in verification, then you have to try another one, Luckily you will be able to add after 3-4 tries.

Answer 2

You can't login to iTunes with a Sandbox account.

If you mistakenly use a sandbox tester account to log in to a production environment, like iTunes, on your test device instead of your test environment, the sandbox account becomes invalid and can’t be used again. If this happens, create a new sandbox tester account with a new email address.
