Yep. Earned $65 in gift cards in the first 6 months in Canada.

Is that what people who aren’t on Apple Pay saying?

Is my bank supported yet?

No, people on Samsung Pay are too busy explaining to Apple Pay users why we can use our phone to pay at all stores but they can't.

It’s kind of a hilarious position. Boast about using it anywhere, when like what? 19? banks support Samsung Pay lol.

Obviously not nine, but probably 19 percent of what Android Pay supports, and at most 5% of what Apple Pay supports...

Good luck using your precious tech “everywhere”. It’s why I held out buying the Note 7 (pre disaster). Will probably and most likely buy the S9 next year when more banks and credit cards are on board.

I don't need luck. I use it everywhere. And, your point is moot with PayPal now included. The best just got better.

By the way, a little bit more than 19...

I use mine everywhere with all 3 of my banks. They are constantly adding new banks and CU's. It took them forever to add USAA but other than that its worked with NFCU and BoA for as long as I can remember. Nice attempt at trolling though ;)

Tedkord is a fanboy. You can't tell him anything.

Flash is an ironic poster and troll, you can tell him anything.

Oh, he's also Mxyzptlk and Batmite.

That's what they're saying when they're looking to upgrade to a Samsung Smartphone for the first time and are eager to use Samsung pay to fully replace the cards in their wallet with virtually no limitations. Already been using UGO wallet to gain the exact same benefits of Apple Pay on my OnePlus before Apple Pay even landed in Canada, so, its existence is useless to me. Would still need to keep my cards with me for those cases where NFC ain't available, only swipe. Samsung Pay is simply on a whole new level, with it being usable at ANY merchant where I can pay with my card.

Wrong. You can use it at any merchant that you can swipe your card at, but not at all places. Samsung Pay won't be replacing cards entirely.

"You can use it at any merchant that you can swipe your card at, but not at all places."

Only place it won't work where a card would work is at ATM and Bank machines, both of which you'd only be going to when you're in need of hard cash, which is 99% of the time not the case for me here in Canada.

Of course not. None of them will. You're not going to hand your phone over to a waitress to pay the check. It also won't work at insert type terminals (like gas pumps, though there is a way to do it there).

However, it is the most complete of the existing tap to pay implementations.
