Pingit RIP 🪦

Now Pingit is closing down, I truly hope that Monzo will now introduce mini cards and/or wearable payment devices.

I really do use Pingit regularly. I have their card as backup in a pocket of my mobile phone case, and a mini card within a loop on my watch strap.

Others used my Pingit account details when making PAYM transactions to me.

To use Garmin Pay I currently have to use Curve, Starling, or Revolut.

There is Santander too, but they pulled zero card before I could apply. :sob:

Cause ideally I want a credit card as my watch payment.

Well then link your credit card of choice to Curve, then pay with Curve through Garmin Pay!

That works with everything except American Express.

In that sort of situation it’s an ideal solution!

I don’t like it. Would rather have things native.

If things go wrong, it will be one more party for o chase things up with.

Well it’s an option - keep things native or, if you want to, use Garmin Pay via Curve (which provides a capability you otherwise wouldn’t have, unless using one of the small number of participating banks directly).

Phone and smart watch batteries die. Wallets get mislaid.

I always ensure I have £15.00 credit in my Pingit account, in case of emergencies.

I always have £15.00 literally to hand, thanks to the mini card in my watch strap.

You can buy a keychain tube, and roll a £20 into it.

But I guess many places are cashless these days.

ICard keyfob is a good Pingit replacement
