🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Absolutely brilliant

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Absolutely brilliant – the smartest way to pay!

I’ve been using the ASTARI Ring since the beginning of the year and honestly, I’m absolutely thrilled! Finally, a gadget that works flawlessly in everyday life and makes paying feel futuristic and fun. Whether I’m at the supermarket, McDonald’s, or the gas station – a simple wave of the hand, and the payment is done. No phone, no card – just pure convenience.

What I love most: people often think I’ve got a chip implanted – but nope, it’s just the ring. We’ve tested it while traveling across Florida, Washington, Mallorca, Switzerland, England, and all over Germany – and everywhere we got the same reaction: wide eyes, curiosity, and genuine amazement.

I’m honestly surprised more people aren’t using this technology already. It’s secure, stylish, easy to use – and always a great conversation starter.

Huge thanks to the ASTARI team – you’ve created something truly outstanding! I’ll definitely keep spreading the word to everyone who’s amazed when they see it in action.

Ultimately a very good product.

Ultimately this is a good product. However there are some teething problems that took a week to resolve, due to being passed between the two software companies required to allow use for the Astari wearable. You need to download both Curve and Mii, neither worked and only allow partial account completion. I immediately raise a ticket with both. To be fair Mii respond fairly quickly. Their answer did not resolve. Their response to my update was to contact Curve. Curve are useless and did not respond within 4 days. I then cancelled my Curve account, only for them to respond saying my account was cancelled and this was probably the reason why it wasn’t working! Anyways. All I will say to Astari is a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. You should really consider finding a new partner because Curve are not doing your brand any favours. Go check their Trust Pilot reviews for yourself.
Suffice to say, I reinstalled Curve and finally got a new account to work (without their “support”)!
UPDATE 23RD JULY 2025
Dear Astari team, I genuinely would like to positively reevaluate my feedback, however my UX has gotten worse. It appears that Curve have taken it upon themselves (4 days ago) to give all of the cards on my account a zero spend limit. To be clear, there is nothing wrong with my accounts when using the cards directly. So for reasons unknown and not at all malicious, I am now back to a product that I cannot use due to your partner. I have raised a ticket. Lets see how this goes!
UPDATE 28th JULY 2025

I'm pleased to advise that the issues with Curve are currently resolved. Both of my Astari products are working as they should, and are meeting expectations. Astari wearables not only provide convenience but also give an additional layer of personal security. There is no more taking out a phones or cards, payments can be made discreetly and imo this is a highly valuable selling point.
Thank you Asatri team!

Hi Mister S,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thorough review. We’re really glad to hear that you ultimately found our product to be a good one, even after a challenging setup experience. We truly appreciate your persistence and understand how frustrating it must have been to be caught between two support systems.

You’ve made a very valid point—when we work with partners like Curve and Manage Mii, any issues on their side can reflect on us too, and we take that seriously. We’ve already escalated concerns like yours directly to Curve, and we’re actively pushing for improvements to ensure smoother experiences for our users.

We’re genuinely grateful you stuck with it, and we’re so glad to hear you managed to get everything working in the end. If you now feel the product lives up to expectations, we’d be incredibly thankful if you’d consider updating your review to 5 stars, since the feedback is mostly for the other companies and not really reflecting on our team—it would mean a lot to our small team and help more people discover Astari wearables.

Thanks again for your honesty and perseverance!

Best regards,
Astari Customer Support Team

Hi Pat,

Thanks so much for your review! We’re really glad to hear you’re enjoying your wearable now—it’s great to know it was worth the effort in the end. That said, we’re sorry the setup wasn’t smoother from the start. Just to check—did you happen to see our setup instruction video? It’s designed to make the process much easy and quick.

We’re always working to improve our support materials, so your feedback is super helpful. If you have a moment, we’d really appreciate it if you could consider updating your review to 5 stars, now that everything’s up and running. It really helps us grow and reach more people who might love the product as much as you do.

Thanks again, and enjoy your Astari wearable!

Best regards, Team Astari

Just follow the instructions...

If you follow the instructions it takes about 5 mins to set this up successfully and have it paired to a UK bank [Starling Bank in my case]. Comfortable to wear and easy to use it's not failed any transactions yet and I don't expect it too. Very Happy.

Works very well and is water resistant

Having used the ring sizer option my Astari ring arrived fairly promptly. The fit is ideal. Set up does involve three apps, one for the ring, one for the payment system and your own bank app. Ten minutes to set up. Having set it up I have used the ring for payment most days and it works seamlessly. I can also vouch for the ring’s toughness and water resistance having accidentally put it through a sports wash (30 mins) in the pocket of my gym gear.

Best product I've ever bought because it works

I'm not the type to write reviews unless I have an awful experience. But today is the day I leave a positive review for once.

I've been using the Astari black ceramic ring for about 8 months now. No battery charging, no confirmation needed on my phone and it's waterproof.

Only thing I wish Astari had is their own payment app similar to curve. Where the master ring is linked to but can add separate rings with set payments limit for kids or partner. If anyone has used mclear payments rings you'd understand. I'd pay a monthly fee for it

From buying to wearing and using it.

From buying to wearing and using it.. perfect !
I had a little issue as it didn’t work at first and i contacted the after sales department. They were extremely friendly and helpful and the issue (something I forgot to do) was resolved straight away.
Now, I use it everywhere and it works perfectly fine.
Thank you Astari

Lack of planning and delays.

This is not a view of the product as I’m yet to receive it, more so the Company and their organisation. I ordered one of the metal rings back in March as part of the Pre-order deal with the initial proposed delivery date being the end of April, and we were told everything was on track. However around the 17th April we were told that the colour wasn’t right so they need to delay things, up to 25th June (a bit more than the stated 6 weeks). We’re now being told that they are expected to be delivered to them by the end of June. And they’ll need to inspect the items, the is no timeline for shipping. Looking on the website, there is a shipping date of around the middle of July. My frustration here is the lack of clarity and the shifting of the goalposts. Surely before putting an item on sale you would check that it works and get a sample. Lack of foresight at its finest

Update: Finally got a ring (I had initially cancelled the order and reordered just over a week ago, the initial purchased brushed colour is still not available). Connecting the ring to the phone is simple. Problem is, that’s where it stops, the curve card cannot be added to the ring as it is constantly telling you the card details are incorrect (they’re not), Curve have a lead time of 3 working days before responding and Astari have 1 working day.

Hi Daniel,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience—we understand your frustration, and we’re genuinely sorry for the disappointment caused by the shifting timelines.

Before launching the pre-order in March, we conducted months of sampling and testing to ensure everything was ready for production. That’s why it was especially frustrating for us, too, when the final finish of one of the metal ring variants didn’t meet our standards. Although we had done everything possible to avoid delays, we made the difficult decision to pause production and fix the issue properly, rather than ship a product we weren’t proud of.

We’ve tried our best to be transparent throughout this process—updating timelines as honestly as possible and always offering immediate refunds to anyone who preferred not to wait. The inspection and final delivery steps you mentioned are in place to ensure that what we send you meets the quality we originally promised.

As a small company, reviews like yours have a big impact on how others perceive us. We fully respect your right to share your experience, but if you’re open to it, we’d be incredibly grateful if you’d consider updating your review—either now or once you’ve received your ring and had a chance to evaluate the final product. We really believe it’ll be worth the wait.

Thanks again for supporting us early on. We truly value your patience and hope to make this right.

In the meantime, if you have any questions or need assistance with anything at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at support@astariwearables.com—we’re always happy to help.

Warm regards,
Team Astari

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your honest feedback—and for your continued interest in the gold payment ring. We completely understand your concern and sincerely regret the frustration caused by the changing availability.

What makes this especially disappointing for us is that we did extensive sampling and testing before production to ensure everything would go smoothly. Unfortunately, when the final batch arrived, the finish on the gold variant wasn’t up to the standard we promised our customers. Rather than compromise on quality, we made the difficult decision to delay and rework the production.

We’ve tried to be as transparent as possible throughout—updating timelines as soon as we had new information and always offering the option to cancel and receive a full refund for those who had already pre-ordered.

As a small company, early supporters like you are incredibly important to us—and so are your reviews. Negative feedback doesn’t just hurt our feelings—it genuinely affects how others view us, and can make it harder for small teams like ours to grow and improve.

If you’re open to it, we’d be truly grateful if you’d consider updating your review—either now, or once you’ve received your ring and had a chance to see the final result. We really believe it’ll be worth the wait.

Thanks again for your patience and for supporting what we’re building.

In the meantime, if you have any questions or need assistance with anything at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at support@astariwearables.com—we’re always happy to help.

Warm regards,

Fantastic payment ring

Fantastic payment ring! Bought this as a gift for my husband, and he absolutely loves it. It's quite the conversation starter at the pub---everyone thinks it's so cool.

Friendly Customers' service

HI, I received my ring a couple of days back: the delivery was faster than forecasted, the ring set up with my curve account as easy as it is explained on the site.
Tried to pay with it but didn't work. Contacted customers support, the reply was fast, we exchange a few time, I did one last thing on my app and can't wait to finish work to see if the problem is solved.
Even if it isn't, their customers service is friendly and efficiant. you are not left waiting ..
Thank you Astari

Hi CDF,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re really glad to hear the ring arrived quickly and that setup was smooth—and especially that you found our customer support helpful and responsive. That’s exactly the experience we want to deliver.

We’re keeping our fingers crossed that your final test after work went well and that your ring is now tapping like a pro! If anything’s still not working perfectly, just let us know—we’re here to get you fully sorted at our customer service team.

If everything is working now and you’re happy overall, we’d love if you considered updating your review to 5 stars—it would mean a lot to our small team. But either way, thanks again for the kind words and for being part of the Astari journey 🙌

Warm regards,

Love my payment ring

Excellent customer service
Quick delivery time
Easy to connect to my iPhone but the second connection to connect my card took a while … got to 25% then failed a few times but eventually got there.
I’ve used my payment ring around 10 times now not one issue.
Would highly recommend
