Wallet - Google Pay

For some reason I can't add cards to Wallet anymore. Verification window (when you enter card details and billing address) just closes when I press "Continue" button and returns back to "Add a payment method". It worked for me a month ago before I reset my watch. I'm not concerned about NFC payments; I simply want the Wallet feature to function properly on my WearOS device.

USECASE: adding boarding passes
My ISSUE: Google Wallet would crash and say there was an issue selecting my identity.
My FIX (too broad, needs more precise testing): allow Google Play Services access to "Calls", "Music & Audio" & "Photos & Videos, always allow all".

Did they ever get back to you on this?

I really am on a knifes edge to go back from based to normie. Just because Google pay not working is causing issues.

keatonhj I am also fighting the urge to revert back to stock... On top of Google Pay, my health insurance App is now not possible to install from Google Store.

Curve, for UK residents, offers a free plan that only allows up to 3 cards. Thereafter they demand ridiculous monthly fees in excess of £5.98 depending on the plan chosen.
No bank account is worth a monthly fee, as they already get a percentage back from the retailer. I refuse to pay to be able to access or use my money

https://help.curve.com/what-is-curve-pay-Skw9tMH7K - looks like curve pay won't work on pixels.

So, which banks in the EU have a NFC payment app that work with GOS? And I mean with a merchant that uses a normal Visa/Mastercard terminal, not on a separate network. Is there a list somewhere? This looks like a natural/common question to ask, but I cannot find any clear answers.

edwin-jones It's my suspicion that Curve Pay will soon open up for all android users. Apple have announced that they will open up their NFC reader for other payments apps from iOS 18.1 and Curve have announced that they will launch Curve Pay for iOS soon. Logic would suggest that they'd also want to bring this option to android for feature parity. Just a suspicion, but could be great for GrapheneOS users if so.

honestly, for the sake of our privacy now and in the future, we should all be using cash as much as possible anyways

Kras I really hope so but right not I'm trying the app with no luck, it doesn't work.

I've got confirmation from curve's support team that curve pay is only available for those with Huawei devices or people in iceland as apparently google pay isn't available there. There goes another option...

Does this look like your problem?

If so I'm having the same issue and nothing seems to be solving it...both TM email and Google emails are the same.
Did you ever come up with a more complete fix?

JayJay wow this is interesting. Will this actually work with GrapheneOS?

JayJay
Oh my god it's finally happening. I've waited for this day for literally years.

I legit considered buying a Garmin Watch just for contactless payments, but now I won't have to anymore.

A good question before we get excited is: why should you trust curve pay over garmin or google pay

OfflinePuffin I am not saying it not trustworthy or a bad product but how is the company behind it and are they transparent

OfflinePuffin
They already have my cards so from my PoV I've already fucked up if they do shady stuff with my cards.

Personally I'm hoping Curve doesn't turn out to be the devil. I suspect we will see when we get closer to release.
