Vibrate whenever a payment is made

[ndamo]

It would be great if the watch vibrated twice whenever a payment was made.

This would help detect fraudulent attempts to trigger payment by someone standing near you in a bus, train etc.

(Note that in Australia, payments happen without the need to press any buttons on the watch)

Do you have the option to get alerts to your phone from your credit card bank that a charge has occurred against your credit card? That's what I do. Don't forget to add the bank's mobile app (on your phone) to the list of apps that notify you if that's the method you use. I get two vibrations, one from Fitbit and one from my bank.

Thanks Kathy!

I also have an S7 connected to my Versa.

My banking app does not seem to have a notification option for payments.

Nonetheless, I was hoping that this would be implemented on the watch, as a security feature.

Thanks again for responding,

Cheers,

Nick

@ndamo  I was having trouble getting alerts from American Express.  Turned out I needed to set the alerts through the website.  Through the mobile app wasn't working.  Double check with your banking website for this. Most banks have this feature as part of their fraud prevention.
