ASTARI® Atlantis - Payment Ring - Contactless Payment - Ceramic - NFC - Wearable - Gadget - Rings - No charging - Waterproof - Unisex - Wearables - Wallet (Black Brushed, 6)

Delivered in 3 days. Simple setup (thriugh curve where you connect your usual credit card). Then you can use the ring immediately. It worked without a glitch 10/10 times. Beware that curve will limit the spendings to £82 until you register on their app with a passport. The spendings will be debited from the chosen cc without any fee, so for now all good. I used the k-ring in the past years and although it was fun I had to often recharge the account and confirm every 3 purchases. With this ring everything is easy and hassle free.

Didn’t intend to post a review but answered a question so: Check your size, and go for it: there’s nothing else in the way of payment rings (the much better Mclear will be withdrawn at end of this month). The size 9 I got is as big as the 9.5 Mclear it’s replacing but bear in mind that the “free” return they listed (now withdrawn) was actually a printed self-pay label to Netherlands address (£10 postage), and although sent nearly a month ago am still waiting for refund. Set up also a pain. Astari, if you read reviews please process my refund and get another star.

Used to have a Mclear payment ring which was perfect until the firm went under and the ring ceased working after just one year. To their credit I received a partial refund for the inconvenience.The Mclear ring simply needed topping up via their App before using.Have been wary of other companies since then but finally pulled the trigger on this black Astari ring.This Astari was an absolute pain to set up because it is not compatible with any of the UK banks at the time of this review and is unlikely to be anytime soon.So the only way is to open a Curve Account I was sceptical because I’ve never heard of them.Then link my bank account to the Curve Account.Finally (the hardest part) link the ring to the Curve App. Many many times the linking process reached 48% done then failed.Over several days repeatedly failed.I was just about to return the ring when it worked.Fantastic product. Much more responsive than the Mclear and debits my bank account directly so no need to top up.Recommended.

Takes a bit of fiddling to get working, but worth it once it's set up.It's a nice quality item and I like the fit even when I'm not using it just to show off.

There is only one app that can link your bank card to the ring if your bank is not recognised then you can not use this ring . If your country's banking system is on the slow side of technology and it's implementing like the UK then this ring is useless you would be better off buying a smart watch

The setup process was initially a bit tricky as it required curve pay to be setup.I would suggest ordering a size smaller than your usual as the ring can be very slippery when wet compared to other rings i've tried.I had to return mine and get a smaller size sent, astari customer service was great, quick to the point friendly responses, didnt charge me anything for the exchange either, have no problems recommending them to others.

Doesn't come with any instructions but from a qr code you can download a guide. In the UK you need a Curve account and a Mii account. Once you have these the ring works perfectly. Only problem I have had is finding the NFC sensor on different terminals.

Doe £132 ring, it looks really cheap doesn't look Premium as it looks in the picture, does rhe job but again really disappointed wirh the looks and feel cheap
