I have a P20 Pro bought from China, as I had problems using my S8+ with China sims, but Google Pay contactless doesnt seem to work. I can add my cards fine but when I try to set up contactless payments I get the message "Additional features could not be set up. Please contact your bank". I have contacted my bank and they ensured me everything is fine on their end. Everything was working fine on my S8+ so I don't believe it's my bank but rather the phone firmware. Anyone come across this?
If it's the firmware, is there a way to bring it to EU firmware but unroot it (lock the bootloader?) after I'm done? I'm quite sure Google Pay won't work if my phone is rooted and my bank apps definitely won't either.
Use the Huwei phone software to restore the phone.
You should do this first with a 2nd hand phone anyways in case previous owner modified it with tracking software etc.

Hi, I am using CLT-AL00 (China) version of the Huawei P20 pro. For some reason, Android pay doesn't work on it. Whenever I add my cards which work on other devices such as Samsung galaxy s8+, it is stuck at: Verifying your card with your bank. I tried to disable/enable/clear cache google play services, delete/add the card to my google account, call the bank for authorization, Factory reset my phone, delete/redownload google pay. However, the same issue happens over and over. Please help.
same issue on my phone as well. please help
I was having the same issue in another version.
Do a payment in the play store with your card (it should be in your payment options but not active for in-store purchases). After you complete the purchase, the activation will work in the google pay app.
Not sure if this will work for someone else.

I have been looking for a solution to this problem since a few months ago. These steps do not work for my phone.
I had contacted Huawei about this issue they said it was due to the android security component being used in the build 'incompatible' with some banks' security system. They suggested using international banks which do businesses in different continents as their security system could be more widely compatible.
I don't really believe in them. But had really no way to go at the moment...
Got a Canadian version P20 Pro, but when trying to activate the google pay pay in stores, got the error "This phone can't be used to pay in stores. This may be because it is rooted or altered to some other way."
Anyone saw the same issue? I didn't boot it even not unlock the bootlocker. Or is it due to I activated private space?
Its rooted?
If you are, you need to install Magisk. My device was rooted and has the same problem. Magisk sometimes works, I think on certain versions. So I finally gave up and relocked my bootloader and unrooted.
I need my GPay
No, it's not rooted. Contacted huawei technical support, they said could be a firmware issue and I have asked for a replacement phone. I will see how the new phone works.
Hi all,
I have an issue with phone payments since ca. 10th of April. Before that date everything worked properly, then something made payments impossible. Phone suddenly stopped communicating with pay terminals in stores, no reaction between the devices at all (terminals don't see the card). NFC is on and ceecked via other app, credit card is correctly configured and activated in both bank app and Google Pay app. I'm on 9.0.0.197 since around 2 months, so upgrade to EMUI 9 did not cause the problem.
I'm in contact with Google support who seem to flip the problem on user side, HiCare support also does not see the issue on their side, they ask me to perform full wipe and ask questions about HCE activation, which I cannot answer. And, as you go through opinions on Play Store, it looks problem is not only mine, but plenty other M10 Pro, M20 and Honor Play users.
Any thoughts or ideas from you?
Thx,
Chaffinch

Problem solved.
What helped? I was in the beta testers group of Google Play Services. Cancellation of approval for beta testing and getting back of the Google Play Services app to version 13.2.92 (official, non-beta) unlocked payments by phone.
I post it if someone had a similar situation.
Best,

I've had a P30 Pro since launch (March 2019) and when I first had it, I remember being able to make NFC payments without unlocking the phone, as I could with my previous Galaxy S8+.
Some time between then and now, when I try to pay for something in a shop with my phone, nothing happens (the machine doesn't even detect the phone).
However, if I unlock the phone, open my banking app (Barclays Bank), log into the app and try again, the payment is instant.
Any ideas?
Does anybody use mobile payments via NFC on X2 Pro? I cannot make it work on my EU version. Tried a few places and the terminal always says that it can't use this card.
I am using it every day with no problems. Maybe you have badly set your Google Pay.
Can you suggest how to set up nfc in gpay im unable to set it up
It works for me aswell, i did just enter my card info in gpay app, and it worked.
Check with your bank and se if your card/bank can use gpay.
perfectly working
Sadly there are no payment apps that support NFC in India
It was my fault. I wanted to pay via my banking app, but it turned out they deprecated hce payments. Gpay works well.
I also used mobile payments via NFC and I can say that there were always problems with this, which did not end. Seriously, as soon as they fixed one problem, another one would appear. Then I was looking for an online gambling payment for myself, so I needed an option that would be a little more reliable.It just pisses me off when nothing depends on me and makes me wait. Not that I'm a big IT specialist, but every time you fix something that you don't have to fix it quickly gets tired and annoying. Hopefully they'll do something about it or they'll just lose customers like they did in my case.

SBI Card pay (for SBI cards) works just fine with NFC. Not sure about other cc issuing companies.
