Hi @YojanaFitbit @GraceFitbit 

Could you please explain for us why we don't have the NFC support in Brazil yet? If you consider the number of votes of this post to start to work on it.... Unfortunately I don't have any hope to use it here one day...

 

Thanks for your effort!!! 😞

It’s hard to see a Brazilian bank (Itaú) available in Chile while we ask for this service here.

Sugeda, I've just talked with the support and unfortunately they still don't have any prediction on when it will be available... as well as the SpO2 faceclock feature... very disappointing

 

I compared the size of the brazilian population X Chile population as well. They are 10% our size and the bank from OUR country (ITAU) is available there! It's very very very frustrating it ins't available here. I'm a fitbit member since 2016 and in 2017 I bought the IONIC just after the launching in NY already knowing the wallet wouldn't be available immediately but hoping it would happen soon. So... I'm waiting since november 2017!!

Hi there!!!

 

Yet (2021) NO Brazilian banks accepted by Fitbit Pay. Why don't you partner with at least digital banks (modern banks) like Nubank and Inter as your initial base?

July 2021 and we still don´t have Fitbit pay in Brazil! What a shame! Next year I´ll update my smartwatch and maybe I´ll need to consider another brand that take Brazilian market more seriously.

Realmente, Novembro de 2021 e a função ainda não está disponível no Brasil.

Pensei que, com a compra da FitBit pela Google, nós brasileiros receberíamos mais atenção. Mas vejo que não é o caso.

Infelizmente, isso faz com que muitos usuários migrem para outras marcas de smartwatches.

It`s unbelievable some features of Fitbit watch do not work in brazil. I CAN'T use the ECG, I CAN'T use the fitbit Pay... A huge bucks invested for almost nothing? That's so bad. Thank you fit bit. My first and last.

I was looking for a fitness tracker and the premium standard and features of Fitbit bands really caught my eye. Unfortunately I can't pay a premium price for a product that i) doesn't have official representatives in Brazil, ii) ECG feature isn't available, iii) Fitbit pay neither...

 

Everyone knows Brazil is going through some rough times but the potential of its market can't be neglected. This post is 2+ years old and nothing has changed...

Exactly @PAtreides . No moderators read our posts. We are really neglected. The main features of Fitbit dont work in Brazil. I didt know that when I bought mine.

I give up! Since 2019 waiting for you guys enable the wallet in Brazil. (2022 Now).

I am trowing my versa onto the old gadgets drawer to never use it anymore. Sad to see an excellent gadget being neglected like this.

Buying an Apple Watch instead...bye guys...we could have had better moments toghether if you did not neglected the biggest market in Latin America... and we speak portuguese by the way!

have a Wise transfer card which is accepted in over 20 countries worldwide by FitBit.
I'm trying to register it on fitbit and it's not possible.
It's a shame that I have this card and because I'm in Brazil and the card was issued in Brazil it doesn't work

shame!

I'm a FitBit user for more than 10 years. And now I Purchased a Charge 5 and many features are blocked for Brazil users. You should at least add Google Pay. They can handdle any international Credit Card.
Very disapointed.

Still waiting. Fitbit could fill a market niche that no other brand did with Charge bands. Many of us don't mind about fully featured apps in the wrist, but only wants a band that can track exercises, sleep, heart and pay.

Plus the bands are more compact, modern in design and it's battery endures more than any WearOS/iOS smartwatch. This is only offered by Fitbit, but in Brazil it lacks the NFC payment feature. I bet millions of users would adopt Charge bands if it was available in Brazil.
