    It's think it is really sad that Bunq shelved tap & pay, and replaced it with a commercial alternative that is not working on all regular phones.

      Thank you Jacob, I already have. It is apparently an unknown problem and has been passed to the developers.

        @Kars-Silver-Penguin#225881 ...But still there is no Add to Google Pay banner in the Bunq app.

          I found Settings for Google Apps, but Google Pay is missing there. I am however able to select Google pay as default in the NFC settings

            Thank you, but that 'Add to Google Pay' banner shown in that post is missing in my app. What I tried:

            • installing Google Pay from Play store, but it is missing;
            • set payment preference in phone NFC settings to Google Pay and restart Bunq;
            • tried the former tap&pay card, a mastercard and a maestro card. None show the 'Add to Google Pay' banner
            • searched for other menu settings in Bunq app for reference to Google Pay, none found.

            I have a Xiaomi MI9, non-rooted, original and updated firmware, Android 10. Bunq updated to latest version.

              Hi, after not using tap&pay for a while, at the cash register today I was disappointed to learn that this feature was silently disabled. Instead, bunq told me to try Google Pay. The thread on Together about using Google Pay has not been updated since 2019, and Google Pay is also not available in the Play Store. Bunq is actively advertising its app in the Play store when you search for 'Google Pay'. So there must be a way, right?

              Please Bunq, how can I pay with my phone?
