Payment Conversion - Advice needed

Support
1

hey all!
i missed this place.

i’ve been thinking of getting a payment implant, and i have a bunch of questions regarding Payment Conversion.

my plan so far:

  1. bunq (Netherlands) as my main bank
  2. Curve card connected to my bunq card
  3. LAKS PAY Key2Pay MINI connected to my Curve card (tokenized! self-provisioned!)
  4. get LAKS PAY converted into a 27*17*0.5 mm implant via Payment Conversion

risk estimation:

  • if bunq dies, i just attach a different card to Curve
  • if Curve dies… there are no other banks to connect to LAKS PAY in NL, but more partners might appear over time, or i can use a supported card from a different country
  • if LAKS PAY dies, well, i’m fucked

seems like a nice non-expiring solution to me with relatively low risks!

questions:

  • am i missing anything? is there anything wrong with my plan?
  • are there any better options than LAKS PAY that support Curve and don’t expire as well? say, with smaller dimensions and/or better antenna range (after converted)
  • would P4 be ok? i’d love to use P5, but i saw @amal advise against this location + i already have a long-dead custom payment implant (a 38*11*2 mm rigid pcb) in there that i’m too lazy to take out xD

thanks a lot, chat :smile:

long tome, no see,
great to have you back

Personally, that’s where I would reccomend

Yeah, unfortunately, P5 is better in theory rather than in practice

Great work with the Flipper by the way

Curve EU is still alive and kicking no prob… it’s just Curve US that is having an issue launching.
