I am very surprised at the very few number of banks support by Fitbit wallet in the UK, rendering the feature almost useless, esp. with the lack of visa and AMEX support. Is there a workaround?

Hi @anid07 Fitbit would love to enter into an agreement with more banking institutions, but those places have to make the decision to join up. There is no workaround, but if more people would talk to the manager of their bank and ask them to join with Fitbit, it might happen.

I was in a similar situation as yourself @anid07, the UK selection is very poor and hasn't really progressed much since the launch of Fitbit pay.
I signed up with a Starling account (very quick and easy to do), and was actually very surprised as to how much I liked it. So much so that I use it as my day to day account (still use Nationwide for salary and bills).
I know it's probably not the solution you are looking for, but I fear you'll be waiting forever for other banks to sign up (unless Fitbit pay is replaced with Google pay).
