I just can't seem to use my virtual card to buy an ebook through the Play Store.

Can you set up your Virtual Card for Tap to pay?

I can't seem to figure that out.

Yes, it is.
If card shows "Active" on fnb profile, re-enter details(incl. cvc) in google payment method. If "Google temp.." [refundable] charge of ~R8 appears in fnb app under card transaction, card is good to use. Go to play store, log-in, select book, click "buy", and it should be available to read- without asking to "Approve it..." on fnb app.

I had a look on the FNB App -> Settings -> FNB Pay
... one is supposed to be able to add/remove cards here to work with FNB Pay
... problem for me is that my Virtual Cards don't reflect as available cards to add/remove.
... only the physical Fusion and Credit cards can be added / removed.

For you guys that have the VCC working on FNB pay (scan or tap) ... do you have the option to add/remove your Virtual Cards in this section?

No, that doesn't currently work for anyone. All that works is to go My Cards -> VCC -> FNB Pay -> Scan to Pay.

...And there seems to be an issue! Last week it worked.

I’m thinking of moving from Premier to Private Clients to maximize eBucks rewards - are there any significant benefits?

Thanks, did all of this before and was charged the ~R8 but still no success. I was however asked to approve the purchase.

Is there a minimum spend on VCC? Perhaps a 3c ebook is too little.
