For eBucks I need to get a phone with NFC and I don't really want to spend too much.

Have you guys got any recommendations?

I was thinking the Redmi Note 12 but surprisingly it looks like the ones sold at Takealot do not support NFC? That's probably my next question. Where do I buy a phone from? I've ordered from Gearbest before but that shipped has sailed.

Might be a silly question but are you certain you will make atleast R5k of ebucks to even break even?
 
Good Lord if your bank dictates what phone you need to use I'd rather just change banks.

No you don't. You can get a watch https://www.swatch.com/en-za/whitepay-svhw102-5300/SVHW102-5300.html
 
OPPO a57s seem to work, tested it with android pay.

The one telkom is 12gb 4gb ram version, but can add virtual ram with using some internal storage.

Just cut the chip out of your credit card and stick it to the back of the phone with sticky tape

I'm still using a p30 lite bought 4 years ago which has nfc.. I think it sells at 4k at takealot
 
I bought a Xiaomi X6 GT from Takealot some time ago already and it has NFC. I use it with Google pay also so I can suggest looking at the Xiaomi store on Takealot for a device. They are pretty decent phones especially with the 120Hz screens
 
I actually ended up buying a Fitbit after lots of research. Wanted a Samsung Galaxy watch but from what I read they don't work with Samsung tablets which is retarded. The Garmin watches are better buys but went with a Fitbit for my needs.

Quickly went to the shops and made two payments with my watch. Was amazing. Didn't even have to take out my wallet or phone.

What authentication does it use when doing a payment?
