N26 integrates Garmin Pay for seamless contactless payments, allowing users to make transactions quickly and securely using their Garmin smartwatches. By linking their N26 card to Garmin Pay, customers can enjoy a hassle-free payment experience, whether they are running, cycling, or simply on the go. With just a flick of the wrist, payments are processed instantly at any contactless-enabled terminal.
Setting up Garmin Pay with an N26 card is straightforward. Users need to open the Garmin Connect app, navigate to the Garmin Pay section, create a passcode, and enter their card details. The app then redirects them to the N26 app for confirmation. Once verified, users return to the Garmin wallet to finalize the setup. After completing these steps, the smartwatch is ready to function as a payment device.
Making payments with Garmin Pay is just as simple. Users access their Garmin wallet with a swipe or button press, enter their passcode, and hold the smartwatch near a contactless payment terminal. The last used card is selected automatically, though customers can switch to another if needed. Transactions are processed within seconds, ensuring a smooth and efficient checkout experience.

Security remains a top priority for both N26 and Garmin Pay. The platform uses encrypted NFC technology to protect every transaction. Additionally, users must enter their passcode every 24 hours or whenever they remove their watch. If the passcode is entered incorrectly three times, the wallet locks, requiring a reset before further use. These security measures ensure safe and controlled access to digital payments.
Garmin Pay works wherever contactless payments are accepted, making it an ideal solution for frequent travelers and active individuals. Since payments are deducted directly from the linked N26 account, users do not need to load money separately—transactions work just like a physical N26 card.
By integrating Garmin Pay, N26 ensures seamless, contactless payments for its customers. This feature enhances the convenience and flexibility of digital banking, allowing users to pay effortlessly, whether they are in mid-run, traveling light, or simply making everyday purchases. With Garmin Pay, N26 continues to expand its digital wallet options, providing a faster and smarter way to handle transactions.
