orrenda esperienza. non sono riuscito a caricare soldi perché mi chiedeva prima di connettere. non sono riuscito a connettere né con NFC, BT, QR;nulla funzionava!! esperienza da incubo a un concerto durante la pausa. sono stato salvato da un'anima pia che è arrivato dopo di me e mi ha pure regalato l'acqua. l'app fa schifo.

★★★★ Giu Be 6/13/2025
beware of scam app. This app told me that it disconnected from a point of sale, next time I check my credit there is none left. The app in fact did not disconnect from the machine and allowed people to use my credit TWO HOURS AFTER the first transaction. And then, refused to refund me. Bad design. Do not give these people your money. Find a different vending machine, worst experience with one of these I've ever had.
★★★★ Aus Rox 6/4/2025 v5.3.2
fing useless
★★★★ Ladin Ladun 4/7/2025 v5.3.1
Worst app ever, you have to do 3 full pages of steps for allowing you to use it.
★★★★ Butt h 3/30/2025 v5.3.1
app is not working well .
★★★★ Alessandro Benassi 10/31/2024 v5.1.1
Penso una delle peggiori app mai viste, andate con la chiavetta e fate prima.
★★★★ Aqua 10/7/2024 v5.0.1
It just stole my money lmaoo
★★★★ Ruxandra Iancu 8/2/2024 v5.0.1
Absolute sh! There's no way to insert a phone number and no other way to connect than reinstalling the app. Do yourselves favor and just cancel this app
★★★★ Yevgeniy Melekhov 6/28/2024 v4.8.3
I just want to buy one candy. I don't need to charge 5 euro for that
★★★★ Morteza Sajjadi 6/14/2024 v4.8.0
Always disconnected
★★★★ Reyhane Sorayani 6/4/2024 v4.7.0
I paid 5 euro to top up my account and after 2 weeks still it's not available on my credit. After many times ticketing and request to cash back my money, they just said we don't refund your money. What's wrong with you?This is stealing.
★★★★ Alessio Lombardi 12/28/2023
Requires suspiciously more data and permissions than the ones needed to perform its actions.
★★★★ Oksana Boiko 11/14/2023 v4.2.1
The worst service ever
★★★★ Fabio Grassi 7/13/2023 v4.0.0.1
Minimum 5 € top up? Can't use coins because vending machine does not give change? Yeah, I'll pass. I'll just go grab a cup of coffee at some place where they only take the money they are actually owed.
★★★★ Landas Stefan 7/9/2023 v4.0.0.1
Useless, in what world are we living now. Instead of just using a simple normal card on an vending machine I was forced to use this app by putting my number, give them all my details including my email and then I also have to put my card manually because dosent have Google pay connection. Ridiculous:))
★★★★ Nam Nguyen Hoang 5/16/2023 v3.8.3.1
If you lost money on the vending machine, say goodbye to it. I have 6 requests for refunds from 2 weeks ago in backlog right now, and they does not seem to be resolved any time soon
★★★★ Alberto Giacomin 5/10/2023 v3.8.3.1
Non funziona da un giorno dio c.....
★★★★ Andrea Nardi 3/14/2023 v3.8.1
Cesso insopportabile di applicazione. GPS, bluetooth e NFC accesi per prendere un caffè. Verifica del numero di telefono una volta a settimana, l'app spesso da come errato il codice appena ricevuto. Tutto per un caffè. Inaccettabile.
★★★★ Riccardo di rocco 3/2/2023 v3.8.1
Dopo aver inserito 2,50€ i soldi per un secondo sono stati visualizzati in app, poi subito dopo spariti. Naturalmente non vengono visualizzati neanche alla macchinetta...
★★★★ Shabir Hussain 1/26/2023 v3.7.6
Not working
★★★★ Melika Mazaheri 12/15/2022 v3.7.3
Decrease you balance in a way you don't understand. I order a speresso and it took 2€ from my credit! When it was lesser than a 1€. I'm not going to use it again.
★★★★ Gabriele Omodeo Vanone 12/12/2022 v3.7.3
Integrazione con PayPal rotta.
★★★★ daniele alessandrini 11/29/2022 v3.7.3
Dopo l'aggiornamento non riesco più ad eseguire l'accesso, alla rochiesta di un nuovo codice tramite numero di telefono, non ricevo nessun messaggio
★★★★ Domix Tek 11/10/2022 v3.7.0
Non mi fa registrare, le basi proprio...
★★★★ gabriele provenza 5/19/2022 v3.4.1
I must activate GPS positioning every time I want a coffee. Qr codes do not work.
★★★★ Luca Pieralisi 4/7/2022 v3.2.3
La meta' delle volte non si collega. Fa schifo.
★★★★ Giuseppe De Luca 10/20/2021 v3.1.1
L'applicazione continua a crashare subito dopo l'avvio
★★★★ Matteo Pietranera 10/20/2021 v3.1.1
App inutilizzabile per chi ha root. La vostra politica di restrizioni è al quanto assurda e discriminatoria. Chi ha root è consapevole dei rischi e abbiamo il diritto di fare acquisti alle macchinette anche con l'app. Non avete nessun fondamento per bloccare l'app.
★★★★ Alex Filattiera (AlexFila82) 9/24/2021 v3.1.0
Non funziona più...
★★★★ Nadia Ambrosetti 7/1/2021 v3.0.6
Sempre peggio. Una perdita di tempo
★★★★ pagap pagapian 4/13/2021 v2.6.0
It can't find the machine
★★★★ Massimiliano Deiana 1/4/2021 v2.4.3
Si disconette spesso, molto spesso devo fare il login e tutto ciò è molto fastidioso.
★★★★ A Z 12/24/2020 v2.4.3
force stops after 2seconds. asks for contact permission without reason.
★★★★ Filippo Gambarota 11/6/2020 v2.4.1
L'applicazione continua a chiudersi dopo 1-2 secondi...ho del credito dentro che non posso usare.. ho aggiornato all'ultima versione
★★★★ Luca Buda (longtermbettor) 5/14/2020 v2.1.2
Continua a dire "connecting error with the vendor machine." non riesco ad usare i soldi che ci ho caricato con la carta prepagata.. Orribile
★★★★ A Google user 2/16/2020 v1.5.6
È un'idea utile e funzionale. Avevo Apple quando l'ho installata e non sbagliava una volta (dovevo solo attivare la posizione). Adesso che sono passato ad Android... Un disastro... Non si collega quasi mai alle macchinette. Sapete dirmi come risolvere il problema per favore? Aggiornamento: purtroppo continuo ad avere problemi di connessione, anche se ogni tanto capita di riuscire ad utilizzarla. Purtroppo penso che non la userò più una volta esaurito il credito
★★★★ A Google user 1/16/2020 v1.5.5
Si blocca di frequente e richiede il riavvio del telefono
★★★★ A Google user 12/18/2019 v1.5.4
Stopped working with message "Profile not compatible with app", from one moment to the next and stole my money. End of year keeping our cash? I tried contacting assistance but of couse noone replied. The worst.
★★★★ A Google user 11/26/2019 v1.5.3
You need my friends list too ? Really
★★★★ A Google user 11/18/2019 v1.5.3
No way to report all the times it eats my money
★★★★ A Google user 10/30/2019 v1.5.3
Bella l'idea, peccato che funziona una volta su 100

Lost lot of Money
★★★★ A Google user 9/12/2019 v1.5.2
Chiedere alla compagnia un rimborso da giorni ma non rispondono affatto. Volevo solo parte dei miei soldi che ho aggiunto per errore. (En: Asking the company for a refund since many days but they aren't responding at all. I just wanted some of my money which I added by mistake)
★★★★ A Google user 7/24/2019 v1.5.1
It's not possible to transfer funds back
★★★★ A Google user 7/24/2019 v1.5.2
DO NOT USE I installed the app and added money to it, the vending machine ended up not accepting the app so i contacted support for a refund, they closed my account with no refund. No answer to my further queries
