Coin 2.0 supports it via NFC (through agreements with banks, similar to Apple Pay, AFAIK). That's what Fitbit would want.

  Coin 2.0 does not support EMV. They used slippery marketingspeak to dance around the subject (saying NFC enables "EMV payment standards") but the bottom line is your chip card would only work with Coin by reverting to traditional static magnetic stripe data.

    Could you elaborate on this? Apple Pay et. al are "contactless EMV", and Coin very explicitly says that they support it for some banks: https://support.onlycoin.com/hc/en-us/articles/207353218-What-is-EMV-and-NFC- https://support.onlycoin.com/hc/en-us/articles/207353218-Wha...

      No, they don't say that on the page you linked.

        > Coin 2.0 is equipped with contactless NFC technology that increases merchant compatibility and allows users to transact using EMV payment standards.

          That is what I referred to as "slippery marketingspeak". It makes no mention of bank support.
