Secondary / backup account with Apple Pay

Heda

Jakob This is no work around and not what the was suggested. Sometimes you just forget that you don’t have enough money on one account but there is still plenty on your backup account. It’s called backup for a reason. Just in case you run out of money on your main account.

W. Janson-Korhorn Thanks for the clarification :)

Ik zou deze feature ook graag terug willen zien. Vind de back up functie fantastisch werken op de fysieke kaarten maar met Apple Pay zou het ook erg handig zijn!

TwitNour

Ik weet niet hoe of wat, maar bij mij werkt het nu gewoon. Als er niet genoeg op staat, dan wordt bij het pinnen toch van de secundaire rekening afgeschreven. Lijkt toch goed te gaan.

I don't know how, but it works for me now. If there's not enough on my account, when I make a transaction, the money is deducted from the secundaire account. Seems like it's working now.

Nour Are you using a MasterCard or a Maestro card with Apple Pay?

TwitNour

Roeshimi Maestro

Roeshimi

Nour Interesting. I should try that in store because the last time I tried, I was shown the Finger 😉

Roeshimi

Just tried with the MasterCard in my Apple Pay Wallet. Works flawlessly 😁

TwitNour

Roeshimi Great to hear. Bunq might have added this silently 🤫

They seem to have turned it off just as quietly. At least for me it doesn't work anymore. Although I haven't changed the settings, of the metal card, since summer, the payment fails instead of accessing the backup account, which worked well in 2022...
Has anyone else experienced this, or is it just me?

PaulDeRop

Simon M yes, I have experienced the same. Support just confirmed that this feature is deprecated. I used this everyday! They asked to put in a feature request, if possible combined with more bunqers…..

JuanP

Paul is there a feature request open? I would like to upvote it.

Hey all! It's still open, but you can now use Easy Budgeting on Easy Money and Easy Green. You can easily set up dedicated sub-accounts and budget from them automatically. So when you make a payment in a store, the amount will be debited from the specific matching category. Check this page 👉 https://together.bunq.com/d/53929 🌈
