Anyone know when season tickets can be downloaded into the Google pay wallet?
Doesn't appear to be on the City site yet.

If going off the email today should be the day however, yesterday I noticed Supporter Services tweeting "within the next 7 days" so who knows

Nobody has managed to crack it yet as far as I know. It’s one of the most secure forms of payment around.

It doesn’t actually store or use the card details you input in the device. Your card issuer creates a device-specific Device Account Number, encrypts it and sends it along with other data, such as the key used to generate dynamic security codes that are unique to each transaction.

I tried that in Google translate, and it came up with a question mark.
Can you help?

Basically it doesn't use the details of the card you use to sign up with. When you register the card it creates device specific account number and then encrypts that. Every time you make a transaction it uses this encrypted data along with a security code that changes with every transaction.

People have a miss conception its not safe when it is in fact one of the most secure payment methods around

I find it pretty hilarious that a lot of people are wary of using one of the most securely encrypted systems ever created, yet are happy carrying cash around.

Thanks for that more simplified explanation. I still can't get my head round the terminology in my "Windows 10 for seniors" book bought for me by my daughter, but I'm getting there!
As I've said before, the string broke on my last computer, and the beads fell on the floor, so I've a long way to go to become computer literate.

No problem, I get its daunting for a lot and the clubs should have catered better for people who either don't have the tech or a reluctant to use it.
 
I was wonderin' why I'd heard nowt from City about renewing the Blue Car Park season ticket so I went looking on the OS. Found out that they aren't doin' 'em this season. One off payments for each match which I gather yer can bundle for a few games. I think I paid £175 last season and it entitled me to a space for every home game, and they let yer use the Blue CP for the women 'n the kids. It's now a tenner a game, £8 if yer can give somebody a lift, so that comes to £190 and a tenner for each Carabao 'n FAC match plus possible five CL games. My maths are running at £130 for the cup games. £305 and no mention of a freebie for the women 'n kids. Somebody tell me that my calculations are incorrect and it's not an 82% price hike.
 
It's just

It's just people being forced out of their comfort zones. Happens to us all from time to time. I didn't have Google Pay until this forced me to do so. Now I've got debit card, credit card, loyalty card on it and happily using it. (Everything except the SC ironically enough). In fact, now I wouldn't be without it. Strange the way things work out - if I didn't have a SC I wouldnt have this handy payment method.

I used to have loyalty cards etc on my Iphone then after an update they all disappeared.

If this happens to stuff in your wallet can it be put back?

Like getting dipped by Apple

I feel very secure when people pay me in cash.
