Had no way of knowing there were "two ways of confirming" the app does not tell you that ahead. Been using it 2 years and the station near me apparently uses the pre-sale type. And now I drove off without paying. Because the post pay "confirm" window looked like the prepay "confirmation" window. 80eur fine! App help doesn't care. Its great until something goes wrong. Then f me I guess. Also you can't update credit cards. They send me an email saying "it's fast and easy" yet it's not possible.

Hi Dan, thanks for your update. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Regarding your credit card, you can easily "update" it by deleting the old card and adding the new one in your profile. Our support team is happy to assist you via [email protected]. LG Lea

DO NOT DOWNLOAD! I almost ended with a theft felony. When I used the app two days ago, it clearly told me that I can drive away and everything is processed. However, since I check my bank account everyday, I found out last night that there is no such transaction. I checked the Ryd app and it shows me no transaction history. The app doesn't even show me payments that have failed. I contacted customer support and they asked me to settle the amount manually with the gas station. Uninstalled.

Hi, We deeply regret that you had an unpleasant experience. Before leaving the gas station, you must always wait for the payment confirmation in the ryd app (✅️ “payment successful”). Our support team has already contacted you via email to clarify this. LG Lea
