Barry Cooper
It did not work after my card expiry changed, transactions were being declined despite uodating and then recreating the payment card profile. The support team were earnest and sorted the issue. They contacted me and lived up to their commitments. The app worked perfectly the next time I used it.
Nicholas Bell
Great app which I have used frequently for at least a year. However, I've recently updated my phone to Nougat and zapper is being picked up as the number 1 culprit for eating battery in the background. Up to 1% per hour. Please address this, it's a considerable problem.
Logan Fleur
The SMS verification system did not work, even after giving it ample time (it took 15 minutes to show up). It just repeatedly threw an error dialog, never giving me the option to call me instead - I had to wait for it to call me eventually.
James Williams
This app in terrible. I can't believe how much time I wasted trying to pay for my dinner. Now uninstalled!
Daniel Hurter
Please add fingerprint authentication as a protection measure to secure transactions. At this stage SnapScan seems to be less bloated, more reliable, faster, more secure and generally more convenient to use.
Jason H
Excellent and easy to use app. Payments are super fast. There's a few very small features that would be great to see...like report a merchant "not a zapper vendor" when zapper shows them as a merchant. Also an option to "delete all" or "delete all selected" under vouchers. Would also like to see a "enter pin code" to open the app too.

Hi Barry could we please ask you to check the expiry date on the bank card you loaded on Zapper. Updated: Thank you for the call we are investigating this further after which a member from our team will be in touch. Updated: We appreciate you taking time to work though this issue with our support team. Have a wonderful weekend. Great app which I have used frequently for at least a year. However, I've recently updated my phone to Nougat and zapper is being picked up as the number 1 culprit for eating battery in the background. Up to 1% per hour.

Hi Nicholas, thank you so much for your feedback! Welcome to the Zapper Tribe. Updated: Thanks for bringing this to our attention have escalated your feedback. Updated: We are aware of the Android battery drainage and have prioritised investigations around finding and resolving the issue and will reply with feedback when we know more. The SMS verification system did not work, even after giving it ample time (it took 15 minutes to show up). It just repeatedly threw an error dialog, never giving me the option to call me instead - I had to wait for it to call me eventually.

Updated 27 June: This feature is on our road map and will be implemented soon. Until then please open Zapper, choose "Settings" from the menu, select Privacy Settings "Password to apply to all actions" and set your "Prompt before sending Zapper account". Keep an eye out for some very exciting performance and feature enhancements in the near future! Excellent and easy to use app. Payments are super fast.

Hi Eric, thank you for getting in touch. We’re sorry to hear about the trouble you’re having. Can you please send us your contact details to sasupport@zapper.co.za in order for a member from our team to contact you? Great app. Works like a charm every time. I use it to pay all the time when I make payments via third party apps. I like its seamless integration with some of the payment processors here in Southern Africa, really convenient. Great work guys!
Zapper Limited 20 July 2017
Thanks for your awesome and positive feedback Tawanda. We are super happy that you are having a great experience. Keep on Zapping. Used to work but getting declined the past few weeks. Support tells me to ask my bank why??
Zapper Limited 21 June 2017
Please note that our Banking department did not pick up a specific issue as to why your bank is declining payments thus they advised you to contact your bank to find out why they are declining the payments.Update: Certain banks have implemented card updates. Please add an alternative bank card to continue transacting with Zapper. I have used this app twice for donations via card and it worked fantastic and is easy to use. Thank you for this helpful tool.
Zapper Limited 19 June 2017
Thanks for your feedback Anet. We are super happy that you are having a great experience. Keep on Zapping. Helped me in my time of need when there was no ATM machines to draw cash. Maybe just ensure that the transactions do not decline when using certain cards.
Zapper Limited 22 June 2017
Thanks for your feedback Michael. Certain banks have implemented card updates. Please could we ask you to check in with your bank to make sure that this has not affected you. Make sure that your card has not expired as this too could cause declined transactions. Does not work on my Samsung galaxy grand prime qr code is elongated on the screen and won't scan

Hi Ian, thank you for getting in touch. Can you please send us your contact details and a screen grab to sa.social@zapper.com in order for a member from our technical team to contact you to see what went wrong? If 64% of your reviews are 3 star and under, perhaps you should start listening and fix your app. Most of those are 1 star, then you really shouldn't be developing apps. Tldr; they're unethical and shouldn't be trusted with your information. Read on for full review. Word of warning before you trust Zapper with you personal information. In my experience, loyalty programs run indefinitely. To expire a loyalty program says to your customer that our loyalty is just a way to incentivise us to spend more. Not sure who implemented the expiry date between Zapper and Roccomamas but I won't use either again. You could argue that the expiry is listed on the card which is my bad for not seeing. In my defence, I've never ever used a loyalty program that expired. Yes, some die out eventually. Perhaps, the ethical thing to do is, to list a loyalty card that expires soon as expiring soon so they know that they can't possibly use it by expiry. Knowing this and that they can't seem to get the basic service to work according to the majority of reviews here. I wonder where on their backend there are problems and how secure your data is.
Zapper Limited 17 July 2017
Hi Shawn, thank you for your review! This type of feedback helps us to enhance our features and improve the overall Zapper user experience. We’re sorry to hear about your expired loyalty card and will reach out to RocoMamas regarding future campaign durations. I have been unable to use the app because it has not sent verification code to my phone

Hi, thank you for getting in touch. We’re sorry to hear this. Can you please send us your contact details to sa.social@zapper.com in order for a member from our technical team to contact you to see what went wrong? The text verification doesn't work. Waste of time. Do yourself a favour and use Android Pay instead.
