So it’s not any different to cards then is it? The answer to those people that want their kids to go and make their own purchase isn’t Apple pay. :smt017
Yes but the card is loaded on the phone then they pay either with the phone or watch if they have one.
That’s what I understand from number 2 son who once spent 4 days travelling round London on the underground just by using his apple watch and they worked out his cheapest fare at the end of the day

Loaded with whose card? If they don’t have their own card then they shouldn’t be using Apple Pay as that would mean they are using someone else’s card, which you shouldn’t do.

You can have more than one card holder on an account so this could be used for them. Alternatively, kids are now having bank accounts which surely come with cards as an option. Parents do have control over the card limits I believe.

Might be better for you to accept that it’s available and it happens rather than looking for non existent issues

Non existent issues? If you have read my post, you’ll see that I don’t have Apple Pay and don’t know how it works. That’s why I asked. You cannot use a card that doesn’t have your name on it.

I’m not fussed either way to be honest as I don’t have kids and I don’t buy food and drink at the stadium. I can however, ask for info about it to base my opinion on and have a discussion on. That’s why I’ve joined this forum.

As you don’t have children and probably take your own Tupperware and flask, you are probably not aware that many parents pay there children’s phone contract and are able to load card details with spending limits onto phones.
I’m aware that people are not keen on progress but I confidently predict that by the time my 5 year old grandson turns 21 cash will be a thing of the past. Tigers are just moving with the times

I don’t mind progress and in case you’re presuming I’m old, when your grandson is 21, I’ll only be 46!

As for kids having phones which are paid for, don’t get me started!

No one knows if it will improve the service, but no matter what cash will eventually go the way of cheques, and virtually disappear with contactless payments and phone apps taking over
This totally contactless payment scheme only applies within the ground but the Leicester City Fish Bar, The Counting House and the burger vans outside will still take your cash. Another reason for going cash less is one of site security with armed robbery but when you think about it up to now "The Highway Robbers" are those deciding the beer & food prices within the ground.! :smt030 :smt071 :smt072

Thanks Mark. :smt023 However I suspect on that basis that number 1 son was probably the "Teacher's pet!" and they kept him in a cage at the front of the class! :smt043 Cambalala! You have to have some humour to counterbalance those "Kings of Negativity" on this board.

Quite the opposite number 1 son was very much the rebel, although he has turned into a brilliant father and wonderful man manager. He also taught a certain English tight head to scrummage

I don't do cashless, so that means no beer sales for me! Will this change of policy add up to even greater loss this season?

Don't understand why anyone in 2019 needs to avoid using a bank card - unless you're evading tax or money laundering.
