## Bakong Tourists Reviews in United States

### *---- "does anyone know how to code software in this country"
i have tried to verify my identity a dozen times, on a dozen different wifi networks and with cellular data, to no avail. gonna be stuck using cash for the next two weeks so that’ll be fun
-- enter i hardly know 'er, 2026-08-20

### *---- "Absolute trash"
Wasted an hour retrying verification process that never works
-- Beauner96, 2026-08-18

### *---- "Feature Change/Release"
Was working but they released a big feature change and now it is broken. It should be processing payments directly with your merchant but you can’t link a card. Was not properly tested prior to release. In theory that sounds great but it does not work. Might as well roll back to a version where customers are happy until the bug is fixed instead of leaving a broken version public.
-- UpsetTourist, 2026-07-27

### ***-- "3DS not supported error"
Was working fine for a while, but getting a bunch of error now adding card.
-- JvLik, 2026-07-24

### *---- "Need to fix your servers"
Going on a border run to Bavet and wanted to download this app.  Get all the way to the end to submit information and always get error thst I need to check my internet connection.  My internet for Wi-Fi and cellular is great.  You just need to fix your connection or servers.
-- Arsenic1313, 2026-07-08

### *---- "Garbage"
The app is so useless that the face verification cannot even function properly. Specifically, face verify does not even give enough time. Any data recorded is lost. Waste of time. The bugs need to be addressed for this app to be viable.
-- qkchen, 2026-07-01

### *---- "Verification Data not sent"
It kept saying that verification data can not be sent because of the Internet connection. I tried through WiFi and on cellular data . I think this is what the other users said as well
-- Ica1292, 2026-07-01

### *---- "Useless piece of garbage app"
This app does not function at all. Couldn’t even register an account. Actually I couldn’t even get passed the email verification  (which is step 1 lol). I entered 2 different email addresses and when I press “next” to send a verification email I get an error message that says “something went wrong”. Great app 👎, my 8 year old could have built a better app.  Useless waste of time.
-- None - user, 2026-05-29

### *---- "Can’t get past verification"
I’ve tried like 5 times now. Even deleted and restarted the app, and created a new account. Still won’t work.
-- Drwaynewright1, 2026-05-07

### ***** "Makes paying cashless easy"
Very good app to use in Cambodia. You can pay local shops with dollars or local currency. Top up and you can use it everywhere. There is no need to have local paper money to lose in your pocket. Some street items are less than a dollar. Thanks
-- Dreew2, 2026-04-05

### *---- "Way too buggy"
I am traveling to Cambodia and a few other countries so decided to download this app. Just like everyone else, I could not get past the verification stage. It times out within seconds. Seems totally useless.
-- jazzun1976, 2025-11-25

### *---- "Broken app"
I have the same problem as other reviewers, the face recognition and verification process does not work properly. The app is not usable. The tech support is very fast, friendly, and eager to help but, they are not able to help so far.
-- wc1538492, 2025-10-21

### ***** "Works well"
I’ve been in Cambodia for the past few days and the app has worked flawless for QR payments (ABA is the term locals use I believe because that’s the bank that started it). I did the verification while I was in my home country using my passport and a selfie on a Friday and it was approved Sunday. Added my credit card and was able to add RIEL to my account. Once I was in Cambodia I went to a Wing Bank and they added USD for me when I gave them cash (I didn’t want to carry as much anymore since the app worked). 

QR code payments are quick. You just have to scan the code and choose RIEL/USD, enter the amount to send, then it processes and shows as completed. The vendor receives the payment instantly. Typing in how much you want to send takes longer then the processing lol
-- Paul4727, 2025-10-03

### *---- "Problems"
I can’t pass the verification stage. I keep following instructions, taking pictures of my passport and moving my head left, right and down and keeps sending back to the sign on page again and again.

I sent an email to support but no response as of yet.
-- Mr Wiz of PR, 2025-09-19

### **--- "This app is not easy to use"
I had to close and re-load the app a couple of times just to try to finish my task, because some things would randomly stop working (for example, selecting country when linking a payment card). Then when I tried to withdraw $250USD from my payment cards, all 5 cards from 3 different U.S. banks were declined--debit and credit, cards active, funds available. If it helps anyone reading this, you first have to withdraw funds to spend from your linked card before then trying to pay with QR code--this wasn't clear to me at first. I hope this app can be improved so that tourists feel more comfortable relying on it.
-- caprisalix, 2025-09-01

### *---- "Bad app doesn’t work"
First off it has issues verifying. They need a passport photo and nothing else but it just asks for ID. Cannot be photo of a photo. That wouldn’t be great if places here don’t require to hold your passport. Then even after approved it just errors adding half my cards. I find a card that adds and it still just gives me internal server error when I go to add money. I have tried various amounts and two cards. It only lets you add riel and not USD. The only supported banks no tourists have. Cannot add normal foreign Banks. Maybe a good idea but this doesn’t work. Cambodia needs a way to let tourists do ABA QR payment when all their vendors only take that and not card. Went to bank to fix it and they told me it’s not working with my American cards to get the code needed to work. So I manually put money in at the bank still have to pay ATM fee. Then I find out I added riel and all the vendors here do USD QR codes and it doesn’t work with riel in this app. The locals app auto converts for them and this one needs manual conversion. Why make us add riel and convert to riel and then convert back to USD. This app is almost entirely useless.
-- 0zfer, 2025-07-30

### *---- "Useless app waste of time"
Absolutely useless app that collects your passport and biometrics for kyc and then just rejects. Just wanted to connect my foreign card to make payments for vendors.
-- Mitchel Sv., 2025-04-20

### *---- "Waste of time"
Don’t waste your time trying to get this app to work. Verification process is the worst.
-- Yim0155, 2024-11-13

### *---- "Does not work"
The app never sends the verification code when you try to sign up.
