What is Needed to Use Garmin Pay?
Parking fee payment with Garmin Smartwatch is made at automatic cash registers equipped with a contactless bank card reader. Thus, it does not require additional infrastructure, the only difference being that the card must be enrolled in the smartwatch application. This payment method is available for holders of Visa BT cards from Banca Transilvania.
How to Add BT Cards to Garmin Pay?
To use the Garmin Pay payment option from the Smartwatch, you must have a movement device compatible with Garmin Pay. Garmin Pay is available on 4 ranges of Garmin devices: Fenix 5 Plus, D2 Delta, Vívoactive 3, or Forerunner 645. Transactions made through Garmin Pay can be viewed in the Garmin application. Therefore, to connect the BTR card in Garmin Pay, you need to follow a few steps.
If you have a Visa BT card and a smartwatch compatible with Garmin Pay, the first step is to add the BT card to Garmin Pay. This procedure is extremely intuitive and easy to perform, and it is done from the Garmin Connect application. Select Garmin Pay and the “Create Wallet” option. Once you have created the wallet, set a password and enter your Visa BT card details. Or, even simpler: you can scan the card details using the phone camera. Then accept the Terms and Conditions of use and activate the payment option through Garmin Pay. You can do this by contacting a Banca Transilvania operator, via call center, at the phone number: 0264 30 80 28 / *8028.
Once you have added the BT card to Garmin Pay, all you have left to do is add the BT card to the Garmin device.

Press and hold the button on the Garmin device and enter the Security code. Please note that this must be entered only once in 24 hours. Bring the device close to the contactless terminal.
