  • Make bunq.me a 'tikkie beter' again by adding an Apple Pay payment option

@Jvjerry#128379 I also just upvoted here and in the other thread. Maybe bunq will listen eventually and I also believe that a thread hygiene is important to show as many votes as possible but I also know that it's hard to achieve. Because people.

    @Marc-Cyan-Dolphin#134441 Yes Marc, you did well to upvote also in the other thread which is older that this one, and thus historically important for this feature request (more bunq.me payment options than the only three : Bunq user / SOFORT / iDEAL
    Let’s join efforts and keep up with the fight ✊️🙏

      Bunq has made some steps by introducing Apple Pay for top-ups but not yet for bunq.me payments. Be sure to leave a like on this topic and this topic!

        @TwitNour#138627 It's sad that bunq.me doesn't see more love. I love the feature so much, especially since they introduced multiple links! Sofort and IDEAL isn't even an option for all bunq countries :/ so depending on where you live, you can't really use bunq.me at all.

          @TwitNour#98228 And I forgot to say, that Google Pay would also be nice ;-)

              What a great update we had yesterday! Now we can also pay a request by credit card so we're do close 🤏🏻 to have Apple Pay too in the future.

                Update 13 really improved bunq.me but still, Apple Pay would make it a lot easier to pay. Also the Limit of 10€ for card payments seems to restrict it for a lot of personal use cases.

                I think Apple Pay won’t be available as long as it costs the user an additional percentage to pay with Apple Pay (I think Apple doesn’t allow this...). It would be great for buns to count these requests towards your free 500€ top up limit or give you the option to pay the fees instead.

                  @DaJonas#143538 Hey Jonas, 👋

                  Rest assured we're working on an Apple Pay option for bunq.me as well.

                  As soon as it's available, we'll update together and let you know! 🌈

                  Thanks a lot!

                    @Tom#143608 Would be awesome to see this together with G Pay! G Pay for online payments is available in much more countries (including NL) :)

                      @Tom#143608 Huh, look at that, Bunq talking about upcoming features, I’ll be damned. Quite refreshing, I must say. I like it.

                        @t0m#143612 well it was partially launched during the update already. The new blogs and API docs already mentioned the Apple Pay ability. 🙈

                          Bunq update 13 is great. I’m so pleased that last but not least, after years of request (the first thread on the issue was started by a bunq user 2 years ago) Bunq.me now accept credit card payements since Bunq 13 update 👏

                            Hi 🙌🏻 @TwitNour#98228

                            It's now possible to pay bunq.me links with Apple Pay. 🎉

                              @Tim#146888 Oh that’s nice! Gonna test straight away if this means it’s very easy to let Americans pay a request without all kinds of problems, costs and routing issues :)

                                  @LH-Black-Wolf#146945 If it does I can replace all BuyMeACoffee links on my projects with bunq.me links.

                                    Why should Apple Pay availability change something about the card region restrictions? Pretty sure it's still only European Visa and Mastercards that are accepted, albeit now also through Apple Pay.

                                      @Tim#146949 I just tested this. Unfortunately it doesn't. Which is very strange to me, a payment is a payment. This would be the way to avoid the USD->EUR processing problem, you can simply let them pay with Apple Pay and the issuing bank will convert it to EUR on the sender side - not your problem. Bunq, however, completely blocked cards outside of the EU. Very strange move and for me that instantly makes it useless. :(

                                      Oh well, maybe in the future they'll fix it.
