  • Please allow to disable the red notification badge on the clover

I’d also be a lot happier if this feature is removed or optional. I’m one of those people who don’t want notifications open. A notification on my phone is something that needs attention/action. Spinning a wheel in my banking app really doesn’t need my attention. And secondly…it has a weird aftertaste if a banking institution has some “wheel of fortune” in their app. Just doesn’t seem very professional.

    Thanks for all your opinions, everyone! As always, we're thrilled to hear from you and will take all of your thoughts onboard as we plan bunq's next moves 🚀

      @Joeri-Silver-Lynx#284601 Zeer mee eens 🫶 De rode stip doet mij denken aan Instagram. Nergens goed voor en heeft geen toegevoegde waarde! Leidt bovendien af.

        @Alexia-Hummingbird#284617 Hoe staat het met de update om de rode stip te verwijderen? Dit is geen bug. Ik vind het ook erg storend. Bedankt.

          @emily-Blue-Wolverine#287936 Hi Gia, is er nieuws over ‘de rode stip’? We zijn alweer 5 maanden verder en zie die vervelende rode stip nog steeds bij het rad van fortuin. Zie de feedback van de Bunqers. 🌈🙏

            @New-Ivory-Bunny-1030484719#288106 Agree! I think can be fixed in one sprint (Agile). 🫶

              @New-Indigo-Parakeet-2395591357#289799 I don't think they will delete it or deactivate it.

                @New-Indigo-Parakeet-2395591357#289801 Why do you think they enabled the red dot in the first place?

                My guess: to grab your attention to look at the page, where you'll see that you can get an extra spin if you spend money.

                  @thijsoost#289810 Exactly even when I was not budgeting or tracking properly I opened Bunq to play, and sometime I did one card payment just for that. Goal is to make you Fomo and increase retention so why would they stop this ?

                    @New-Indigo-Parakeet-2395591357#289798 Hey there! Our product team is aware of your suggestion, hiowever, before implementing any change, they need to thoroughly assess it. If we choose to implement it, we'll make sure to publicly announce. Thanks for your understanding ☺️

                      @thijsoost#289810 See the feedback of Joeri (above)! This post is about collecting arguments why the red dot should be removed.

                      “To me the badge means that something requires my attention and the wheel is an extra, not a mandatory thing.”

                      I totally agree on that. If I like to spin, I go to a casino instead (but rather avoid it).

                        @Bogz#289815 In my opinion a gamble game should absolutely not be the way of increase retention. There should be other ways.

                          @New-Indigo-Parakeet-2395591357#290072 More you go on Bunq more you are willing to use it. And bring money to bunq, it's the same goal for tree counter, and the forest illustration for green tab and activities. It's to work on your dopamine.
                          I earned tree and twice an easy green subscription so it's quite a good compromise Imo

                            @Bogz#290076 True. I am addicted to it already, but don’t want it grrr 🤬

                                Marko 🇬🇧🇧🇬 changed the title to [IMPLEMENTED] Please allow to disable the red notification badge on the clover.

                                  Hello @Olive-Gemsbok

                                  You changed the title to [IMPLEMENTED] but I have the latest version and cannot find this setting.

                                  Could you let me (and probably others) know how to disable the gambling feature?

                                    @arikb#293240 Unfortunately, this cannot be disabled. The red dot was disabled for everyone for a short time, but was re-enabled later. I would love to see a setting to hide the Wheel of Fortune entirely.
