Coin

I just read an article on The Verge about a new product up for preorder. Coin (https://onlycoin.com/) seems like a fantastic product, but it appears they are only planning for iOS and Android support. I think the good folks here at WPCentral need to rally up and convince them that they could benefit from adding Windows Phone to the list of supported mobile platforms!

It's a clever idea, but it still seems like a middleman situation. I wish NFC payment would catch on in the US!

I've posted to the Coin page on Facebook offering to pre-order if they can do a refund later if the WP version is not pursued. I'll reply back to this thread if I receive a response. Their website doesn't appear to have a 'Contact Us' section. I'd be happy to participate in requesting WP8 in other forms, but without an organized push, the result will probably be predictable.

I've been wanting this since I saw the video. It's a shame that we are getting ignored on this. If I could code, I sure would help out.

I pre-ordered not knowing it would only be compatible to an iPhone and an Android phone. they said they will send me refund (before my name in inscribed on the card, by summer). They said they will consider windows phone when there is demand in the future.

I think this Coin product is great and would like to purchase it but they currently do not support Windows Phone. I emailed their support group and was told that if the demand is great enough they will create a Windows Phone application. With that said I would suggest everyone on this forum email the support group to push the Windows Phone application. Here is their email address: help@onlycoin.com. They are on Twitter @coin and Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/onlycoin as well.

They've been saying the same thing since my initial post. I wouldn't put too much hope on a different answer.

Any updates on this guys? I recently switched to windows phone coming from android and i just found out that there is no coin card app for windows platform. Does anyone know if this is being worked on?

I've emailed their support line asking for WP support. If a few more join in this endeavor, we may get Coin support! I want to preorder, but cant go off the money back if they don't support.

The fact that this product is now nearly a year into the "preorder" status would make me question it much more than it's lack of Windows Phone support...
