You can do this over and over again whenever you want, for example: If you want to change your bank card or pass the wearable on to a friend.
With the IPHONE there is a 20 second restriction – with older mobile phones it can happen to repeat the process – then you have the knowledge where the hotspot of the NFC antenna is on your mobile:)
The Sweet Spot Finder can help you to find the NFC antenna in your mobile phone.
Move the Sweet Spot Finder over the back of your mobile and find the NFC antenna – the small white LED light on the Sweet Spot Finder will light up as soon as you move over the NFC antenna.
The LAKS PAY STICKS can help you to position your mobile over the wearables.
iOS has a limit of 20 seconds for the NFC connection. So you may have to try again. Hold the wearable in portrait mode.
Make sure you have a stable internet connection.
Some Android mobiles with Android 10, 11 or 12:
- sometimes you need to clear the NFC cache – see here
- cache is a general topic for Android – not seen in iOS
- security software (eg.: AVAST MOBILE SECURITY or similar) block the functionality of the LAKS PAY App – we recommend to switch it off or use different mobile
please choose an envirement without any metal – metal can interfer NFC
- As soon as you start the LAKS Pay app, the NFC function in the iPhone is switched on. The NFC antenna is located near the top edge of the phone.
- For iPhone 12 users, the best position for the wearable is about 5 mm below the top edge of the phone.
For the best result, place your wearable over the front camera of your iPhone.
- Please ensure that the NFC function is activated.
- At times, turning the NFC function off and on again can improve its functionality. The NFC antenna is commonly positioned in the center of the phone.
- You might find this link from SAMSUNG about NFC and the antenna location on most modern phones very helpful: “SAMSUNG NFC location and usage”.
For Android there is a link at the top that you have to trigger manually. Your bank will then send you a 6-digit CODE by SMS which you then enter in the field.

YOU CANNOT USE YOUR WEARABLE WITHOUT ACTIVATION
Error 100 means that you are not using a ‘lock code’ on your mobile phone and therefore the LAKS PAY application will not work.
This is required for security reasons.
Therefore, you must first enable an unlock code (Face ID or other method) on your mobile phone.
Then it will work.
