How does Fitbit Pay and PIN work for Versa 2?

[HotLap]

Hello, new to the Versa 2, successfully added my cc and set up Fitbit pay.  I set up the pin to be required when I want to use the Fitbit pay function, (as opposed to having to enter pin every time I take off the watch or every 24 hours).  Question is when I access the Fitbit pay app by swiping down on the clock face, (to the shortcut area), it asks for my PIN, (which it should), but when I access Fitbit Pay by swiping across the screens it does not ask for my PIN?  Seems it should ask for my PIN every time I want to access the Pay app no matter how I access the app? 

Also, how long after entering your PIN can you use the FitPay app before you have to reenter your PIN...?

@HotLap It's nice to see you on the Community. Sorry for the delayed reply. 

I appreciate the details mentioned. When you enable Fitbit Pay and set your PIN, you will need to enter your PIN when it's the first time you make a payment after you put your Versa 2 back on your wrist. 

It will work like this: enter your PIN code the first time you use Fitbit Pay since last taking off your device, or if it's been 24 hours since you made a payment. Learn more about it by checking these articles: What should I know about Fitbit Pay? and How do I use the device lock on my Fitbit device? 

I'll be around if you have any additional questions.
