    Huawei HarmonyOS can't add Octopus NFC

    Has anybody managed to use Octopus NFC payment with their Huawei HarmonyOS? I can't do it and Octopus adviced contact Huawei, they adviced add it to Huawei wallet. My phone is P50 Pro.

    I can see right Octopus card in Octopus app but it not allow add it to Octopus wallet even i see Huawei Pay icon and add button. Huawei wallet doesn't have option to add Octopus, just loyalty/ gifts cards.

    Is the phone set to HK region? Not sure how it works but there have been issues in the forum with Samsung phones purchased elsewhere.

    I think in the case of Samsung the phone had to be reflashed with a HK ROM.

    Make sure your model is compatible. I don't think the csl sim works with every phone.

    My problem solved. Even phone region was set to HK Appgallery had separate selection set to UK, after changing this it allowed add Octopus.

    Btw unfortunately for credit cards only BOC and ICBC supported in HK.

    shri and bdw like this.
