Has anyone here used Looppay? They compare it to Apple Pay and they say it works in 90% of retailers. Says it requires no special equipment for it to work.
 
I have one of their fobs. Mixed results. Not too bad though just tired of all the funky looks like I was committing some sort of fraud. Don't think others understood how it ties to your name your card.
 
This will be dead next year when most bank cards are switched to EMV (it emulates a mag-stripe swipe which will no longer work with EMV cards in places with EMV readers).

Also, in comparison to Apple Pay, you get none of the security afforded by tokenization and dynamic verification codes.
