The most important part was left out: was the application successful in the end, and how long did it take?

It's a quite straightforward use - few minutes, it uses NFC to the passport, it's very organized and well guided... except

you can use only one bank card per person - the payment would be rejected w/o any reason given, so going through the process few times to no avail. Getting visas for the family would require multiple bank cards.

This is a common problem. I have it everywhere I go when I take my kids on holiday. Particularly ticket machines where you have to buy multiple tickets and can't add more than one to a transaction (Maltese buses are a good one).

I don't get the problem with my credit card. Might just be switching cards until you find one that isn't crap.

I'm guessing this is your card bouncing a repeat purchase from the same vendor with the same value

I guess you could create a few virtual cards and use those.

Did it recently, took 3min to receive confirmation, the warning it might take longer than on the app is bollocks.
