Troubleshooting Nearby Friends

For the Nearby Friends feature to work, make sure both you and the other person have your profile privacy settings enabled, then follow these steps:

  • Make sure you both have Bluetooth switched on

  • Tap the Payments icon in the menu bar

  • Tap on Pay Someone

  • Both tap Nearby Friends, then tap your friend's name when it pops up

  • Send the money 💸

If you've done all this and it's still not working, let us know and we can take a closer look.

Alternatively you can also try using our new QR code feature to get paid by someone. You'll need to do the following:

  • Tap the QR code icon at the top right beside the magnifying glass or by tapping on Request money and then choosing By QR Code or link

  • Enter the amount or leave this up to them

They'll then be able to use their phone's camera or a QR code scanner to scan this and make the payment 😊
