@Bastiaan#35380 Actually, all normal bunq cards should be made by recycled plastic! Not only the upgraded card.. Thatβs why I thought this:
Option 1: the normal bunq card (made from bioplastic) ππΏ
Option 2: the upgrade version of the card (with a special design and great look and feel) π
Wow, looks amazing! I'd gladly pay 3 x 9 euro to have all my cards replaced to this design (hint hint @bunq)
@Tijnie#35018 That is definitely cool stuff.
N26 en Revolut hebben al een tijdje een metal card optie en sinds een paar dagen is Curve toegevoegd aan het rijtje met metal cards.
Een metal card wordt door iedereen aangeboden als een premium optie. bunq heeft al het premiumpakket dus daar zouden mooi 2 metal cards in passen.
Graag duimpjes voor iedereen die metal cards als onderdeel van het premiumpakket wil.
@Michiell#61152 Hey,
it would be cool if you could comment in English if the original post is also in English :) there are bunqers in not just one country
Mobile payment is coming! Don't care what the card looks like.
+1 for the black finish!
@johannes#61153 There was a separate topic of @Michiell#61152 which was completely in Dutch (even with replies) and that one is gone now. So it might be that Sander moved Michiels post here (Sander unlocked this topic first, as you can see)
@Michiell#61152 @moderator goed bezig!!!
no no an no. any physical cards no matter the material is a bat ideal, plastic is bad for the environment, metal is even worse, the future of payment is in mobile devices and so called wearables through Google/Apple/Samsung/Fitbit/Garmin Pay or Android Tap & Pay, since bunq update 6 or 7 in the spring of last year I've been using Apple Pay almost exclusively and don't even touch those card anymore (or only when needed). They are a waste of earths resources, bunq in my opinion, should become the first bank to stop issuing physical cards altogether and go with digital, virtual-only provisioned cards in the mobile wallet solutions from the major manufacturers as mentioned above.
Otherwise, bunq might as well make their cards from bamboo for all i care π€£
If bunq would stop issuing physical cards, I'd need another bank.
@Dennis#61161 no, just a smartphone, watch, ring or other NFC-enabled wearable or jewelry I've even heard talks about car-manufactures are going to put NFC-chips in keys that will contain a bankcard for example, I believe the future of payments in stores (for as long as we are still buying stuff offline) will be a world of NFC-only terminals at some point and beyond the traditional bankcards.
@DaveFlash#61163 Thatβs just not enough right now. Cards are unfortunately still required in various places, especially abroad. Might as well make βem nicer.
Incidentally, that blackish metal card in the OP looks really awesome. Iβd pay a small setup fee just to get that :P Very nice! Hope such an option will come. (And otherwise at the very least get a better card design than the current ones :P)
@DaveFlash#61160 I am also against a metal card, as it's even more bad for the environment, but I think you are a bit dreaming with your world without any cards.
Cool, that it might work at your places, but it will take a long time for NFC being the standard all over the world.
@DaveFlash#61163 Not in Germany... some shops only accept girocard (german bank card) or cash (barber, bakery for example). So how do you get cash from an atm without a physical card?
And to differentiate between the cards better in Apple Wallet. So bunq, please add more different designs to choose from.
@jho#61229 Some ATM's support NFC. Not in germany, of course π
