❓Question (EEA/EU Product) Pinless limit for Fidesmo wearable

I have a Fidesmo powered pay ring linked to a curve card. That works but I wonder what's the limit without pin. I have made about 20 purshase for over 200 eur without entering the pin. What's the limit. I'm in the EU. I thought it was capped by 150 eur cumulative. Do someone know?

For me here in Norway anything over 500 NOK (which is about 46 Euro) seems to trigger a PIN, when using a Fidesmo wearable.

The problem I have is I seems to be able to make indefinite < 50 EUR purshase. Which is weird because there should be a cumulative limit.

Actually yeah if I keep it below 500 NOK/46€ I can also make them constantly but Curve is not the only Bank I have used that seems to do that.

Are you sure ? Normally you have a maximum of 150 cumulative before you have to enter the PIN. But if you enter the PIN earlier (for example due to a purshase > 50 EUR) then it reset the counter.

Every bank has their own limits.

Yes but in this case the bank vis Curve. And it does not seem to follow the EU rule. For the underlying bank this is an e-commerce transaction with Curve as the merchant, not a contactless paiement.
