The popl that s stuck to the back of my

I tried using the Popl at my first event and it just wasn t working well with venmo I had to manually provide my customers with my username for venmo

Wish it worked like on the ads

The popl that s stuck to the back of my phone is temperamental and doesn t always work It is embarrassing to have them try fail and go back to the camera to scan QR

Constant Notifications

I have to tap and hold the phone just right for it to pick up my info if it even picks up at all People have to scan the QR and it takes away the efficiency of the popl

Could be so great- but disappointed

Every time I unlock my phone popl keep notifiing me and there is no option to turn it off I also tried sharing my info with a few people and it did not work not sure why

Not worth the trouble

We purchased this technology after seeing an add on social media It was easy to set up and to link our small business information When we arrived at our venue we were excited that we would be one of few vendors who could off a quick and touch free mechanism of sharing That s where the excitement stops Of the over 60 people we attempted to offer our information to only 2 we re able to use it with success We tried everywhere in the wristband- the top bottom tapping with a phone cover without a cover even on the phone screen itself hardly anything worked Finally we gave up and went back to using our paper business cards- for which potential customers stuffed in their pockets and purses costing business and time Great idea- not so great operationally

I m new to Popl got my package

I ordered several Popl s for my business so clients could scan the popl and automatically pull up various ways to pay and also see my service menus and social media The idea is nice but no one uses it and those that are interested in using it never seem to have their NFC connections on and then have to fiddle with their phone to allow the connection and it s just time consuming and they lose interest in it Great concept but I d pass on Popl Not to mention their marketing ads are cringe-level psycho-stalker level

25 isn t passing

I m new to Popl got my package bracelet 2nphone popl s When i opened the package it had a postcard with instructions on it I was disappointed to see that I did not receive all of my popl s It wasn t until later that I saw the sticky post a card where 1 of them had been attached now thrown away And it was the pretty one soooooo I think someone needs to use some tape or make sure they don t fall off I had no idea it was stuck to it nor did I see it in the envelope Totally bummed

Not as cool as it looked

I have tried to use my popl multiple times and it has only worked twice It s disappointing to pay so much for a service and it work less than 1 4 of the time I will keep trying to use it as I love the idea of it but have not had much luck getting it to work which also makes me look unprofessional as I do use it for business purposes

The app is opening up any time I touch

So far it hasn t worked as planned on anyones phone The only one that worked was when we used the QR code Every time I turn my NSF on it picks up my Popl and continue to open the app periodically Can t even discover where to turn on NSF in my wife s iPhone to see if that works 5 attempts with peoples phones and it hasn t worked via NSF once yet

Doesn t work every time

The app is opening up any time I touch my phone Any time I can t do anything about it apparently as I checked all the possibilities
