[Experience] Wearable NFC payment

That's interesting. I've installed it to my owner profile, have NFC enabled and also Google services. Though I have also enabled a Google account. Could this be the source for the app not showing NFC-pay settings? 🤷‍♂️ I have to investigate that further and maybe installing it to another profile.

just checking do you have fingerprint enabled on your phone?

as i read is available in the UK and EEA for selected customers. I just hope is not a temporary thing
maybe i am lucky..
don't you have a enable pay in the launchpad menu? the doc says it can be done there for existing customers.

did you install the newest version of the app? i installed the app through aurora store using an anonymous account

Thanks, I suppose you're one of the lucky ones ;)
I just followed your example and installed it to a new profile via Aurora with fingerprint and nfc enabled and it still does not show any setting for activating it.
But I registered just some days ago. So longer users might either have higher priorities or I'm not in their A/B-testing group if it's a new feature.
Let's wait some time :)

Could you share the app version codes for the beta app or the one with curve pay working from the app info page. so we could try to sideload those versions from aurora to see if we could be some of the lucky ones too.

I created it yesterday after i saw this post.

Much appreciated! Once my Apple Watch gives out, I’d like to get a garmin and set up nfc on it.

EmLeX932 just a note.. the https://help.curve.com/what-is-curve-pay-Skw9tMH7K mentioned above
says this:
Important! You won’t be able to use Curve Pay if: You’re using a rooted Android device.

I hope that graphene devices are not considered as rooted (=not having google os).

this is the info of the app.

i use graphene os. my bet is that is country related or i am a selected customer like the curve doc says.. i begin to fear is just temporary. like a trial or something.

Woulden't think it would count as rooted.

seems to work fine for that guy, we probably just need to install the beta app, or maybe its linked to your phone number in the app. in any regards its worth a shot installing if we get version codes tho

update from someone at Curve:

This is Chitra ( Technical Programme Manager ) at Curve working on Curve Pay. Curve Pay is being gradually rolled out to all new and existing Curve Customers. Currently the Beta version is being tested by a selected few so please bear with us. Curve is available to people over 18 years old who reside in UK and all countries within the EEA.
Again the feature to allow you to use your choice of Issuer for Fx rate is on the Product Roadmap - it will be worth the wait

in a nutshell i was lucky. and I do not find the version i have installed anywhere i don't know where aurora pulled it from .. is not like my google account is beta enrolled or anything since i use anonymous unless the anonymous account of aurora is beta enrolled. hard to tell!

Thank you for the update.

The version you are running indeed is the lastest stable release, i have the same one and have no curve pay options yet.

Seems your account was picked to be a beta tester, but good news is it seems they have plans to roll out fully in europe. maybe because your a avid user of curve. guess the rest of us have to wait for now :)

Is curve safe? i've been reading a lot for decline transactions and frauds on reddit
