Suppose I pump $80 of petrol at Esso. Normally, upon presenting the DBS Esso MC, the amount payable is the discounted figure and is known to me. With ApplePay, what would the process flow be like?

Hi Level42, alright did some checking up, from what we understand, Esso does not accept contactless payments, therefore you wouldn't be able to use Apple Pay with your DBS card there. :slant:

My 3 cards: UOB, POSB, Stan Chart, all shows "Activating - your card is being activated"

Added these cards few hours ago. OTP Sms all came thru, no issues during registration process.

I even tried at NTUC just now. Phone no response when humping e pay wave machine :(


Just read the above tips to remove and register again. IT WORKS! Thanks :) resolved

Funny i tried at NTUC lunchtime, no problems at the cashier though.

Sadly hope, we use LTA introduced method call CEPAS that also uses NFC as well, if transport need to work with Apple Pay and Samsung Pay, LTA and those transport companies need to update their system, if banks introduce NFC on ATM, we can even withdraw using our phone by placing on the NFC reader instead of inserting the ATM card, as proven in Korea with Samsung Pay for transport and ATM withdraw.

Technically speaking, it's is highly possible to use Apple Pay or Samsung Pay for transport if our authority update their out dated system and allow us to allow EZ-Link card into wallet.

In future, want to go out, just bring our phone that all if transport, atm withdraw plus the current retail payment all integrate together! This is what I call cashless smart nation!

There a lot of possible to NFC technology, use digital smart lock and even can use it to lock and unlock our HDB doors, no more keys, which again Korea uses it years ago. (If you watch their drama and variety show, you will know what am I talking about), Korea is insanely high tech and everything is nothing but FAST FAST FAST!

As of now, Koreans only need two things when go out: Samsung phone and T-Money Card, no need house keys too as they all use digital lock.
Can pay taxi fare with Apple Pay
Why would you still want to go to ATM if you everything also want to tap tap tap

I've added POSB Passion Card to my wallet but strangely, there is no prompt for it to be added to the Apple Watch while the rest of the cards has no issue. Anyone facing the same issue?

Kind of suspected this because I don't recall seeing any contactless payment terminal at Esso stations. Anyway, thanks for checking.

Tried to add my OCBC Frank card but keep showing " Activating" Status while I already had the sms from OCBC that the card is activated.

Removing and adding the card again doesn't help either.

Anyone has the same issue and how to resolve this?

DBS,

Pls advise if we will get the full discount and additional 6% rebate if we use POSB Everyday card at SPC using Apple Pay.

I have noticed something.

MasterCard - Only adds to the iPhone Wallet App

VISA - After adding it to your iPhone Wallet app, it asks if you want to add it to your watch.

However, for MasterCard, you have to add it manually.

With case can use or not ah. Will it affect?

Should be fine but it depends on your case. I use an Apple Smart battery case and it's fine. I think Apple Watch is a bit more sensitive though as you need to really hold it closer to the sensor.
