I disabled the notifications on wallet but it came up twice as a banner from Monzo?

Just christened Monzo Apple Pay - paid for some shopping in Primark using my Apple Watch.

So happy.

Thanks Monzo for finally getting this launched :slight_smile:

Iā€™d be interested in knowing how many Apple Pay activations occurred today! It took a while to activate on my Watch but Iā€™m good to go and tested it out by buying a coffee!

Thanks Monzo! Great work!

Just tried it in M&S Foodhall - first time it declined. Second time it worked. Then checking in the Monzo App Iā€™d been charged twice for my shopping, but a few seconds later another notification came through that one of them had been refunded.

Back end systems slightly overloaded perhaps and not completing the authorisation the first time?

Interested to know the increase in #fullMonzo switches today!

Has anybody else ran into issues using World Pay contactless terminals. My first attempt with Monzo Apple Pay hasnā€™t worked, so still waiting to try. Barclays Apple Pay worked fine.

Maybe an issue with the terminals in my local shop as Starling does the same thing.

182

Could it be related to the current lack of 3D Secure?

183

Iā€™d say itā€™s highly unlikely, 3D Secure would not affect contactless transactions at all, only purchases online. :+1:

There is no limit on Apple Pay transactions (outside of merchant contactless limits and those for your Monzo account in general), no matter what device youā€™re using. :slightly_smiling_face:

I got told in our local Spar this morning they could only take cash as WorldPay was down nationwide. Still not fixed? Jeezā€¦

185

Well it worked with Barclays just not Monzo :frowning:

186

Huh maybe itā€™s a totally different incident. The woman in Spar was literally telling everyone as they walked in. Luckily they have a free cash machine in there. I never carry cash. And I now have Ā£9.35 in my pocket which will likely soon be deposited in the depths of my sofa. Itā€™s like a legacy/analog coin jar pot :joy:

Yay and finally :smiley: used it twice and both gone through fine

It is about time ā€¦ no actually is 3-6 months overdue. Thanks for catching up Monzo!

I just wanted to jump in here and offer something slightly different - praise from an Android user!

This is perhaps surprisingly something Iā€™ve really wanted. Of course, at the moment, Iā€™m happy using Google Pay. However, the addition of Apple Pay is great as I wouldnā€™t want to be using a bank that I know I wouldnā€™t be satisfied with if I ever chose to move OSā€™.

Thanks to the Monzo team for the hard work that Iā€™m sure went into this! :tada:
