The connected HyperRing has worked for a long time, but has now stopped working.Updated 6 months ago
If your HyperRing has been working fine but has suddenly stopped functioning for payments, here are systematic troubleshooting steps to identify and resolve the issue:
Quick Checks
1. Card Expiration: Check if your payment card has recently expired
- Solution: Remove the expired card and connect your new card to the wearable
2. Payment Status: Open the HyperRing Pay app to verify that payments aren't paused
- Solution: If paused, simply reactivate payments through the app
3. Bank Restrictions: Your bank may have placed a restriction on your digital card
- Solution: Contact your bank to check your card status and remove any blocks
Technical Troubleshooting
1. NFC Chip Damage: Physical damage to your HyperRing may affect the NFC functionality
- Check for visible damage or signs of extreme wear
- Try positioning the HyperRing differently against payment terminals
2. App Connection: Ensure your HyperRing is still properly connected in the HyperRing Pay app
- If not visible or showing errors, try removing and re-adding the HyperRing
3. Phone's NFC: If you've changed phones or updated your operating system
- Verify that NFC is enabled on your new phone
- Reconnect your wearable to the new phone
Advanced Solutions
1. Reset Connection: Remove the card from your HyperRing and connect it again
- This refreshes the digital token and can resolve many technical issues
2. Multiple Test Locations: Try your HyperRing at different payment terminals
- If it works at some locations but not others, the issue might be with specific terminals
3. Bank Security Measures: Some banks require periodic verification
- Try making a chip & PIN transaction with your physical card to reset the security counter
- Then test your HyperRing again
