Because the Note 3 doesn't have the right type of nfc chip. Google Wallet didn't work either.

I'm not a Note 3 expert but I thought I heard something about Verizon and possibly other carriers giving out NFC enabled SIM cards for Note 3 users?

I also believe the problem with the note 3 was the type of NFC chip that was built in didn't support a specific security/encryption type required for payments.
