When will Monzo support Apple Pay?

Yes. With a Samsung watch on one wrist and my Garmin on the other I could easily pay each time I get on public transport, but needing your right wrist for tube barriers and your left wrist for busses it is more awkward when you only have it on one wrist, particularly if you are carrying shopping. I have the solution though! Have everyone drive on the right, and then the busses will have entries the other side and we can use the same wrist for both bus and tube :wink: But seriously, why did they not put the reader for tube barriers in the left not the right, so it would be the same side as the busses? Probably designed by someone who goes to work in a car!

No idea, but if you use one of the new buses, and get on through the middle door, there’s reader on the right (might be the same at the back door, I can’t remember), so you’ll need to restrict your journeys to new buses.

Because most people are right handed, and so they’ll instinctively walk through the barrier with their wallet in their right hand.

Buses have it on the left just because the ticket machine has to be in that location.

Really? I always get my wallet out of my left pocket with my left hand because my phone is in my right pocket for my right hand…

Though the ticket machine needed to be there, now they no longer accept cash the readers could be anywhere!

You need a handbag. Then you (eventually) default to taking everything out with your dominant hand

They may have one, but prefer to leave it home rather than have it snatched in crowded places!

Lol this thread gets off topic so much :joy: are we sure that Monzo is actually on an NDA or is it just because the fees don’t make sense for them as everyone would then use Apple Pay?

The first rule of a NDA is nobody can talk about a NDA :sunglasses:

Monzo have said repeatedly they want Apple Pay so we know they’re trying. It’s just down to stars aligning at this stage.

Considering North and South Korea have literally stopped fighting before Monzo gets Apple Pay, anything’s possible.
