Anybody have issues with NFC Payments. I've pretty much stopped using it because it's so hit and miss with terminals. Surely it should either work or not. Was one of the main reasons I got the Versa but it's so unreliable

No issues here. I find Fitbit pay to be very reliable both on my Ionic and Versa.

It's less reliable than my Google Pay on my Samsung phone.

However, I think it takes longer than a smartphone or contactless card, so trick is to keep the watch on the reader for a bit longer, instead of removing too quickly...

No problems here.

 

I'm in Australia where contactless payment is ubiquitous and has been the norm for a long time. Might be different in some other countries.

Cheers for the reply and suggestion I'll give it a go. Yes Google pay is
instant in my phone which I use all the time

Thanks
