Excellent I wanted to get a ring to make easy payments as I have shaky hands. It’s a faff getting cards out of wallet or even having to make two quick presses on iPhone or even my Apple Watch now. It may not have been designed as accessibility aid but it’s perfect. The slim design is also better as it doesn’t stick out n smaller hands my ring size is 8. Highly recommend

Redoing my previous review as I've switched over to the ceramic ring. The ring is comfortable to wear, waterproof so you don't have to take it off constantly for washing etc. It looks nice and works basically as described. Makes everything a lot more easy when it comes to paying. No more fumbling around akwardly with a smartwatch or phone. Not to mention it will raise some eyebrows and have people curious too asking you about it. The multiple delays on the metal rings are still frustrating however when it comes to the ceramic ring they have a consistent well made product, not to mention they are transparent in their updates on the metal rings. So it's safe to say that when the metal rings are finished you can be sure that those will be just as easy to use and comfortable to wear as the ceramic ring.

Very nice device, not very bulky but very effective and functional. Excellent material. The ring is immediately recognized by any device. Excellent.

FANTASTIC, A REALLY GREAT PRODUCT WITH GREAT CUSTOMER CARE,
VERY VERY PLEASED

Was an easy set up and worked without any problems, notification straight away to tell payment made

Excellent after sales service I would highly recommend. I have purchased the black ring and will be ordering the silver one as soon as it is available

I now have the holy trinity of Astari products; the ring, bracelet and key fob so I'm covered in all eventualities. The ring is my main go to and works in 95% of the time, and the bracelet is used as a backup. The key fob is always there as a backup whenever I leave the house without the other two and it is a great comfort to know I always have access to funds even without a phone.

Setting up all of the devices was a piece of cake and linking to a Curve account means thst they are a God send when being used abroad as I benefit from no currency exchange fees.

I 100% recommend Astari to anyone who wants the freedom to pay without having to carry a wallet full of cash or cards.

fast, efficient, reliable

I tried another brand of ring and it was really unreliable, had to remove it and hold against card readers. However the Astari never fails to work

The payment future on your finger.
Had the ring for 4 months now and use it nearly every day without any problems.
I still find it funny when you pay with the ring and you get a very confused look on the sales persons face of “how did you do that!” Very much like when I first saw the Astari ring in action.
Going to Spain so will test the ring out there having set up my Spanish bank card on the ring.
I don’t use the watch or phone to pay for anything now.
Travel light travel smart 😉
The only down side is they have just brought out a gold and silver version of the ring so I may have to upgrade - dam you Astari !!!

I have a black ring from Astari and that has been working great. Few times I have actually really forgot my wallet and the ring has saved the day in a shop :-)

Now I am exited to get the new golden ring, which is perfect to look like wedding ring.

Just ordered my second Astari-ring, a silver brushed one this time. Have been using my first ring for over a year, looks good, solid quality - no more cards or wallet,it works flawlessly! Great customer service as well.

Wonderful products. I've got a payment ring and it work very well. The customer service is great. I wanted to change my ring size and no problem.

I purchased the bracelet and was pleased with the price and it arrived very fast, I had some questions on how to set up the bracelet I sent an Email to Astari Wearables and within a few hours I got a reply which fixed my problem, a very efficient customer service and very pleasant communication would recommend without doubt . Thanks Mike

I ordered the contactless bracelet but sadly a mix up with sizing. I contacted Astari by email and a guy came back to me very quickly (Mike). Sorted out a return and replacement in super quick time and the new one arrived in time for my holiday.
It's super quick to set up. I had it up and running within about 2 minutes.
Great quality item and perfect customer service.

I've had the ring for almost half a year now and use it every day. It has never let me down. Payment is quick and uncomplicated. Setting it up is also easy and clear. I can only recommend the ring and I'm sure the bracelet and keyring are just as great to use.

I ordered my ring already a year ago and just did the same for my wife for a holiday gift. The first signs are that she will love it. It is indeed a fairly complex set-up involving two apps and the ordering of a credit/payment card from Curve. However, I echo the other comments here in that the instructions are clear and the Astari people are working hard to provide personal support and answer all forms of questions. I had to work a few bugs out, but now my payment ring is rarely declined, and I have used it routinely in Europe but also while traveling from Hong Kong to California. The only problem I have had is sharing pints with my buddies, who now always encourage my to 'do the ring thing' again to avoid paying.. ;)

Bought as a gift for my husband. He hasn't took it off. It fits him well, he said he knocked it and it's absolutely fine no marks. He's even done the dishes wearing it with no issues. He hasn't had any problems using it to pay all the transactions have gone through fine and he gets a text straight to his phone after. He's a very happy customer.

I purchased an Astari ring when my previous ring (different company) was withdrawn from service (I had been successfully using it for years).
It arrived quite quickly and I it set it all up as instructed and it worked seamlessly - for a few weeks! Then it got consistently declined. Which really made me wary of using it to the point I stopped even trying.

I emailed Astari - and to my surprise - got a response back the same day! I went through all the various things requested but to no avail.

Then they asked if they could contact the bank (Curve) - and then it was discovered that I hadn't completed the verification process with the bank! (NOTHING on their App informed me of this!).

But I completed it and the ring was up and working again in an hour!

This issue was NOT with Astari but with the bank. The ring is now working really well and in many way, is far superior to the one I was using previously!

In conclusion, the ring is really good and does 'exactly what it says on the tin'!
To add to that, their customer service has undoubtedly been first class - not something you can say too often these days!

As most reviews say it can be a bit tricky to initial setup the ring as you have to go through 2 independent apps (Curve & Manage Mii) but the support from Astari has been 5+ Stars!
The ring is now operational and works like a dream!
Its so convenient and now my wife has one and shortly the whole family will.
