Newtype But does Bunq also plan to offer Apple Pay enabled Maestro on the €0,00 Travel Card plan?
The Travel Card, as it is now, is a Mastercard type of card which means that it can't be enabled as a Maestro enabled Apple Pay card. I'm no bunq employee, so I can't say if bunq is planning to make any chances regarding this matter, or the matter on the paid plans they offer now. I think they won't change the plans in any way. bunq makes costs to deliver the services they deliver right now, and they need to be paid back in some way. The Travel Card is interesting for people that might want to transfer to bunq some day but not yet. They can taste the feeling of using the bunq app without having to pay a monthly fee. But keep in mind that the Travel Card membership also comes with some disadvantages. Most features are available for Premium/Joint/Pack users and some are even Business-only.
In conclusion, Travel Card is interesting, but it can't be used solely as your main bank. It's a Mastercard which will support Apple Pay any time soon according to bunq.
