• Pay with smartwatch

Is it possible to pay with my Samsung Smartwatch? Google pay is still not available, in eht Bunq app, I cannot find a setting for this.

    @Henricus-Violet-Zebra#221125 Hi Eric, the regional availability of Google Pay for Wear OS smartwatches and other smartwatches that have the Google Pay app is different from Google Pay for Android phones, see this article: https://support.google.com/pay/answer/7643998?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en

    Are you located in one of the supported countries? I see that you have some earlier Together comments written in Dutch. Unfortunately the Netherlands is not supported currently by Google.

    Edit: And after some digging it seems like Samsung is using its own OS called Tizen on their smartwatches that is not compatible with the Google Pay app in the first place. So that's another blocker then and even if you would live in a supported region you wouldn't be able to use Google Pay on this smartwatch. The only mobile payment technology that works on these watches is Samsung Pay, but bunq cards cannot be used with Samsung Pay.

      Betalrn met google pay gaat inmiddels. Maar wanneer komt het vrij voor de Samsung galaxy Watch 4? Deze draait op google wear os3, dus dat zou moeten werken.

        @Henricus-Violet-Zebra#232855 Unfortunately, even though WearOS 3 supports Google Pay, the feature "Pay with Wear OS" has different regional restrictions than Google Pay on Android smartphones, with The Netherlands not being supported.

        Which means that for example German bunq users can use their bunq cards on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4, but Dutch bunq users cannot do that... it's indeed a bit more confusing situation than with Apple Pay, where a region is (mostly) either fully supported or not at all.

          @Henricus-Violet-Zebra#232855 Hi Eric. Google has now officially released "Pay with WearOS" in The Netherlands. Meaning you should be able to use your bunq cards on WearOS devices now also in The Netherlands.

            Hi there, when trying to add my bank card to my new watch 4, it only shows my credit card. I want to add my bank card though, is this possible?

              @Wouter-Violet-Zebra-2561479467#234544 Hi Wouter, both Maestro card and Mastercards should be able to be used with Google Pay on WearOS now for Dutch customers.

              If your card doesn't show up like it's supposed to, please try to completely remove your card from Google Pay on your phone first. Then add it again manually (not through the bunq app) and it should also be possible to add it to the WearOS device.

              This workaround was reported by a user in this thread: https://together.bunq.com/d/46923

                @Jakob-Y#234553 Hi Jakob, when I try to add a card through the google pay app, it will ask for a card number. I can only use numbers in the field, so adding an IBAN is not possible. I tried also without the IBAN part but it says card not supported.

                Thanks in advance

                  @Wouter-Violet-Zebra-2561479467#234556 You can find the card number (and CVC+expire date) in the bunq app:

                  • Go to tabpage "Home".
                  • Tap on "Cards".
                  • Long press on the desired card > "Copy cardnumber"
                  • Or: Tap on the card.
                  • You can find the cardnumber on the top of the screen (tap on the ℹ️ icon).

                    @Bastiaan#234564 I can confirm this works! I paid for my oliebollen today with my watch and the lady looked at me like it was some sort of magic. Very nice!

                      Nou het lukt mij nog steeds niet. In de app automatisch vanuit de BUNQ app toevoegen gaat goed. Verwijder ik hem en probeer dan handmatig dezelfde kaart toe te voegen, krijg ik de foutmelding: OR-Tapsh-08. Iedere keer opnieuw. De kaart die ik automatisch toevoeg verschijnt idd niet op mijn Galaxy 4 watch.

                        Kun je ook met je horloge nfc met Bunq betalen terwijl je je telefoon nfc op ING laat?

                          I also cant add my wifes cards to her Samsung Watch, I even ordered replacement cards. To no avail. This error keeps coming up or-tapsh-08. Adding via bunq app to phone works but wont be usable on the watch. The stupid thing is, I have the same watch, and such and I could add my own cards to my watch without a problem.

                            I am also getting OR-Tapsh-08 when trying to add a card manually anyone has a solution for this?
