Samsung pay all the way, it's literally accepted anywhere with a credit card terminal. I just bought some t shirts today and the cashier said "we don't do mobile payments." I said, "watch this."
When i showed my friend who uses iphone x how samsung pay simulates the paywave feature from my debit cards, he was so dumbfounded, he could not believe how it works
I use Samsung pay everywhere but the gas pump. Also to the girl in the video who lost her card. Call your issuer and get that replaced like an adult. Its takes less than 5 min.
Man, Samsung Pay can be used almost anywhere. Even when they tell you "Sorry our system cant accept that .." Boom..I already put it near the machine and the cashier looks surprised it worked. Really cool.
I walk inside a old store, exhausted from work I pick my product. As the cashier passed the barcode to the laser, i got ready to use my Samsung Pay. It is one of the latest and greatest technologies. I already can see the cost of the product, as im about to take out my phone the cashier smiled and stated “Sorry it doesn’t accept mobile payment”. I was looking the cashier in the eyes. “Try me”. I Swiftly take out my Samsung S9 and pay for my item, surely i know the cashier was impressed, but for me was nothing new. “Wow how did you payed for it!?”. I gently tuck my Samsung S9 onto my pocket, and looked at the cashier. “Oh that, pfff, thats nothing new Kid” I was sure i made the cashier moist with my amazing technological device. My time was running out, i pick up the bag and walk out of the store. I felt proud, happy for proving someone wrong yet again, as I put my Shades and drive.
Richard Laguardia I get the people (usually Target) who think Samsung Pay and "Android Pay" are synonymous and that my Google Pixel should work when in reality their terminal doesn't support NFC 😒...
Even if Samsung Pay comes up as "Card Read Error" or something similar, it will *always* work when tapping a second or third time. Plus, something not mentioned in this video is that Samsung Pay gives points for each purchase, which lead to rewards like instant wins, gift cards, & much more. ONE LAST THING: the Gear S3 Frontier & Classic watches (which can operate Samsung Pay themselves) are compatible with Android phones from other manufacturers as well as all generations of the iPhone released over the last three years. Bottom line: Samsung Pay is by far *the* *best* electronic payment system.
Warning: incomplete transactions on Samsung pay leave that “token” available for 24 hours. If the token were to be intercepted during transmission, it could be reused. The caveat is it could only be intercepted by someone that is standing physically right next to you using an obvious electronic device. The point is whenever you experience an incomplete transaction immediately close the Samsung pay app and clear your devices memory via the device manager. Better safe than sorry.
@cedric1997 It works with the chip readers too. If it doesn't sometimes you can insert a blank card(such as ID or membership card) to get the sensor started then tap phone.
Yeah but in Germany, many stores don’t accept credit cards. We have this stupid old fashioned national debit payment system called girocard, which can’t be used either by Apple or G Pay.
Samsung pay is lightyears ahead of the others due to MST, I can use my Samsungpay to use with the classic terminals. Apple pay and Gpay will need the upgraded terminals which aren't going to be upgrade for some time.
The old terminals are a legal loophole so the banks are responsible with the NFC the banks can wipe their hands of responsibilities if fraudulent activity and the store is responsible so I don’t think the old MST will be around like in Australia there are gone all NFC for like 10 years now
If Samsung Pay doesn't work, the shop is doing something wrong. It's literally read as a credit card. The reader doesn't know the difference. It gets the magnetic signal and voila. If it didn't work, they're pressing the wrong button or keying it in wrong. I've had that happen a few times, I was persistent that it should work, to try it again as credit, and it worked. Your lack of persistence shouldn't have any effect on whether or not you think it's good. I've used mine everywhere, been told 1000 times it's not going to work. I've always walked out with the bill paid.
I totally second Jacob here. My experience is exactly the same. Most of US citizens buy iPhones soooooo blindly that they have no clue what other phones like Samsung have to offer (which in my opinion is faaaaaaar better than iPhones). For instance they have no clue what Samsung pay is and the moment you say "I'll pay thru Samsung Pay" they'll bring up the screen on their terminal which is used for manually keying in the credit card number, obviously Samsung Pay will not work when their system is in manual entry mode. I've to repeatedly tell them to act as if I'm swiping my physical card and then let me use my phone when it's time to swipe the card. Finally they understand that its exactly similar to physical credit card swipe as far as they are concerned and are amazed when the bill prints out.
I used a self pay machine at a Lowes and my Samsung pay didnt work. I then tried with the teller (not sure exactly what her screen said but we tried debit and credit) and still no dice. It's worked EVERY other time tho, I have a feeling it was just a freak thing.
I hear you but not everyone likes confrontation enough to be "persistent". You put up with crap all day at work and home; who wants to argue with a clerk making $12/hr? It's perfectly reasonable to factor that into any comparison even if it's not Samsung's fault per se.
In Australia literally no one swipes their card anymore. NFC is huge, I use my Apple Watch to Pay all the time and sometimes I tap my card not swipe it using pay pass or pay wave, literally every terminal has nfc.
No one swipes cards anymore outside the US. In some regions such as Europe or Australia, NFC is ubiquitous, and in others such as Mexico and other parts of Hispanic America chip is already the standard, but magnetic stripes are part of the past in most of the world outside the US.
Most people in Australia at Maccas drive through nowadays. Mcdonalds: ok drive onto the pay window Customer: vroom vroom Mcdonalds: how do you want to pay? Customer: paywave
Made in USA: Apple Google All of the above are the most popular forms of careless payment in the world Made in Australia: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)....? This folder is empty
Samsung Pay is the best. It will work 99% all the time. Also you get reward points each time you use Samsung pay, which will let you redeem gifts on Samsung online shop.
@@stevethea5250 I kid you not, you can redeem a note 9, a 4k tv, a gear watch, iconx earbuds, ect. If you have enough points. Will anyone ever be able to do that in a reasonable amount of time? Probably not, but the fact that you can at all is insane.
I've been using Samsung pay for over a year now. It's my favorite app. I refuse to use my physical cards, I love not having to worry about having my cards stolen.
SwiftTone If I do go to a sit down resturant I will bring my card. But I like to cook my own food. Resturant are a huge waste of money and I only go to them on special occasion only.
The problem is that MST is still a feature. Just shows how backwards the US is. Almost every other country uses tap or chip now, and there would be no point of MST.
Dondre Pete SOmetimes in the US they require a card to unlock the door to an ATM after business hours, that’s what I think it is. ANd he was able to use his samsung phone in place of the card.
Luigi A NO ! you can use you're Samsung pay enabled phone to open the bank doors and to use it at the ATM machine. I actually just did it at a BOA branch today. 6/13/18
Shockingly the US is so far behind europe when it comes to these payment machines almost all shops in europe have machines that accept NFC so Apple Pay and google pay would be accepted. why is the US so far behind?
You should check out China's system. 99.99% of vendors (including street peddlers in the back alley) take QR based payment. You basically scan their QR code they have posted and it pays them. I was shocked!
*was at Gas station buying $1 coffee for my friends* cashier: "hi how will You be paying today?" Me: "im trying out using my phone as my wallet" cashier: "I'm sorry we don't accept apple pay" me: "pardon" *taps my a30 to the terminal and her computer beeps*
TheBlooRayChannel lol, doesn’t even work here in northern Europe so no. Not very available around the planet. Apple pay was here first and is now everywhere. Literally everywhere, nowhere you can go and not be able to pay with you iphone.
"I do look for other features in a phone so I don't know if that would be enough to sway me" .... Translation== But I'm and iPhone user so ill just ignore this features relevance all together, until of course it comes to apple then ill say it was a much needed change and very convenient
@@-_--hp1ui check the news an ipad blew up in an apple store recently and they had to evacuate the entire store and injured 3 employees. And that isnt the 1st time it happened. The main reason why Samsungs note 7 is more known is because samsung took the courage (real courage unlike removing the headphone jack) to recall all the note 7s. Which is something apple will never do.
@@genelee239 I know, I started laughing. It's time the iSheeps learn their company don't care about them. At least my company recalled it and gave eveyone a refund.

Tell me when the doctors wake you up and I'll educate you on what happened the past two years. BTW Apple never compensated for it's illegal throttling or it's defective batteries in 2017 Mac Pro or it's exploding iPads.
Apple: We have Apple pay and it's great! *Apple Pay fails at a normal terminal. Samsung: Watch this. *Samsung Pay works. Samsung: This ones on the house.
Well in Europe almost every terminal accepts NFC. The problem for Apple Pay here in Germany is if the store accepts credit cards, instead of our own stupid national electronic payment system.
TheCrack you really have to be reaching there, the only thing remotely close in TouchWiz, not even the newer Samsung Experience, is the coloring, but in the new skin, they look completely different.
TheCrack mate have ever used an iPhone or a Galaxy? They aren't even nearly similar; just look up the S9 icon pack and then look up the iPhone X's, the menus and everything are very distinct, the Samsung Experience has an app drawer, and finally, their animations are different. No way is Samsung Experience a rip-off of IOS.
Damm I didn't even know that and I just bought a Samsung. I went from a phone that doesn't even have nfc and that's the be only reason I switched phones to a Samsung flagship. Not knowing that was the best one for what I wanted 🤣. Awesome!!!!!!
The missing security is worse than stupid. Means that if someone steals the phone from your hand (ot if it has got a bad security like face unlock) they can turn off screen/phone time out and shop away untill you lock down the phone remotely...but since your phone is stolen that can take some expensive time, ESPECIALLY if you are abroad (where the risk csn be a lot higher for theft depending on where you travel)
It’s not stupid. Any thief can press continue if they were to go on a online retailer and use your info. Having any sort of security measure is smart including Face ID which works really well. (Not sure what the other guy is talking about)
@@bigbadboogie6842 what's the difference from using a bank card? In Australia we can spend $100 without using pin code or inserting the card you just tap it like the phone. So you can literally take anyone's card and spend as much as you want as long as each purchase is under $100
A report from Visa in November 2017 showed that contactless payments here in Australia were 92% of Visa face-to-face transactions, up from just over 80% earlier in the year. With a big rollout of updated eftpos machines earlier this year, I'm sure we are higher than 92% today.
We lag a bit behind in Canada, but it is certainly better than having to watch someone in the US stare at the bottom of a reader to figure out how to use EMV.
If this test was done in the UK or Europe I’m pretty sure it would be a tie because almost if not all the shops I’ve been to have contactless payment which allows you to pay with your phone
Samsung pay! I love it, and i use the cash app to send money, instantly to your bank account no wait time. I love when people all the time says samsung pay don't work and then it works, makes them feel stupid lol, love the look.
tony lansky It did, now they've taken away the most beneficial reward the free visa cards. Samsung's being cheap now. Now you have to save up thousands of points for their mostly outdated merchandise (which isn't selling well) or gamble your points to win a prize with the digital spin the wheel gimmick (which you never do).
@@stevethea5250 items, samsung accessories or digital gift cards you could save up for with your points you acquire by making in a debit or credit card transaction. It was a nice program but now it's shitty because samsung has raised the amount of points you need to acquire to get items and limits how many points you can acquire in one month. They've recently removed the visa gift cards as an item you can acquire with the points.
Tampabruh at least samsung still give you something unlike apple and google so it's not fair to say that samsung cheaped out and they had those rewards at the first place to bring people to the samsung ecosystem but now with more users they would have been in a loss if they continued their rewards from a business standpoint.
Is 100% true I have a Apple phone and I couldn't buy in some place because of that I switch to Samsung phone and I NEVER have a issue that I cannot pay. AWESOEM LOVE Samsung Pay.
That's pretty true, I just switch from Apple to the Google Pixel 3 and I love it so far, there are some things I miss from Apple, it's a lot easier to use and to tweak annoying privacy things than the others, but the Android phones do have a lot more features, or at least the newer ones
@@trevordoeshalloween5994 they didn't improve on Apple's idea. It's an entirely different technology. That's why it works and Apply Pay doesn't. Samsung pay uses the magnetic reader, just like a card does. It literally works at almost EVERY card machine. My nearest convenience store gives me a "chip read error" but I have used it everywhere else, without any problems. People constantly tell me "we don't take Apple Pay" or "we can't do electronic payments", and then I pay with Samsung pay. It's not an electronic payment, like people think, but just communicating the card info with the card terminal.
@ swift boiz The vast majority of stores are still on MST where I live and others will agree with me too. So your comment is irrelevant to a lot of people out there using Samsung Pay.
Swift Boiz I doubt the fee has anything to do. Apple charges the banks higher fees than Samsung, yet Apple Pay has expanded to a lot more countries than Samsung Pay. Also, this video is obviously aimed at the US where a lot of merchants still don’t even have a chip reader, let alone contactless, such as the illy Cafe shown in the video at 6:00 minutes, where they only have an old 1990s magnetic stripe reader attached to the computer screen.
Ya know, I've used Samsung Pay to buy things at the Apple Store ;) In the 1% of cases it doesn't work, it's not the fact that it's an iPad, it's that the system running the payment system doesn't work with MST.
6:01 You should've just tried it instead of asking if they support it. Don't know about the US, but in Germany, every device that accepts NFC payment will work with Google Pay
Nope, look where the second girl had to put her Samsung phone a few seconds later. That place, illy Cafe, obviously only accepts magnetic stripe using an old reader attached to the computer screen (that’s a 1990s system!). No possible luck using apple pay or google pay there. Vanessa was right in leaving the register without even trying.
TheTaxxor Samsung Pay does have NFC, but it also has the MST (magnetic secure transmission) technology that allows it to work on magnetic stripe readers. The latter is what was actually used at the two places where Samsung Pay worked but Apple Pay/Google Pay didn’t because there was no NFC, which were the candy store and the illy Cafe.
I've been using Google Pay in Australia with my S7 Edge for an entire year and haven't found one terminal that doesn't support it. I've literally been in the middle of remote country-side towns and never found it not to work. Same story with Apple Pay I'd suppose as they both use NFC. Been great so far, amazing to see the US so behind here.
If you lost your card, you should cancel it. Fast. Just memorizing the numbers and let it go is probably the worst thing you can do when losing a credit card...
Vanessa Hand Orellana I hope 🤞🏻 As a former fraud analyst in a credit card company I heard that phrase too many times from clients that I informed of strange activities in their cards.. 9/10 it was stolen.. You should check your card activity and go look for it.. 😉
You picked products, put them in your cart, continued to checkout, selected confirm order and then decided to you didn’t want the product? Lmao wtf? How is that Googles fault exactly?
Alvaro Mady it's so everywhee that even merchants don't know that they can accept mobile payment:D Samsung pay is awesome, Maybe someday.... In 10 years I can finally use it in Germany.....
Ive even used my Gear S3 watch at a gas pump that wasn't mobile payment friendly. Swiped the driver's license to activate and then quickly put my watch signal into the reader lol. Awesomeness. Plus the samsung points and rewards for visa gift cards are fantastic.
Aaron McDaniel it is correct. The person in the video did not use a specific brand Bank, which is the reason why said the comment. If she used a bank of America or maybe even Chase, she would have e been able to use it
I've been using Samsung pay for a couple of years. It's great and works pretty much everywhere. Most people are blown away, especially when I use my watch to pay, because their machines don't work with Apple or Google, so they think they won't work for me either.
In Central Europe you can use the NFC payments everywhere where is a terminal. We don't use the magnitic stripe anywhere. So it doesn't matter which service do you use.
We don’t use the magnetic stripes anymore in Latin America either for security reasons, but since contactless cards weren’t a thing in the region, the only thing that’s accepted everywhere is chip cards being inserted (or Samsung Pay over MST, since all the terminals still have the magnetic stripe reader too despite that it isn’t used anymore).
There’s one specific convenience store in Brazil that won’t activate NFC, even though the terminal has that function. Except for that one, NFC is available everywhere (in the big cities).
For the machines that require you to insert your card (like a gas station pump), just insert a card with the strip on the wrong side, while holding your Samsung Pay device up close to the reader. All you're doing is activating the strip reader, which detects your phone.
@@runegeezy Just because you don't want to go inside doesn't make you lazy lol There could be a big crowd in the store you just want to avoid or don't have time for... No judgement.
I recently got the s10+ and I was low on gas but left my wallet at home. Was my first time using Samsung pay but luckily it could use my PayPal account. Now I have to add my credit card to my account, a huge lifesaver if you ask me
@@klipzers big upgrade for me, since I had the HTC one m9 for 4 years. Solid phone, only other galaxy I've had was the s2. My gripes are how the screen curves and accidentally clicking sometimes from side presses, but that's mainly on RUclips. But overall I'm happy with the purchase. My old phone battery was dying and over heating so fast so I needed this. If not I probably would have waited for the 5g or note10.
Mersid Kajic yeah but it doesn’t really matter. But some make a big deal out of it. Like why don’t you use cashless pay? Or why do you use cashless pay?
I’m an international student from China. To be honest, convenience wise, there’s no difference. Because not all of the stores take Alipay or WeChat pay, so I still had to bring cash with me just in case. In the west, cards had already been there since forever before mobile pay came out. The cashless system in the west is to replace cards, while the cashless system in China is to replace cash.
Haha... Same here... Then there are those iPhone zombies behind me who try and use it... Feels good telling them their iPhone won't work only Samsung... 😂😂😂
This is from 3 years ago. It is now 2021. I hope they have an updated competition to see how much has changed. I have a Samsung Note 20 Ultra and am new to this pay stuff. I am leaning towards using Samsung pay but wonder if Google pay has caught up at all. I know with Samsung pay they also have cash back offers. Does Google pay also do this?
i use paypal all the time, samsung pay lets u link a paypal card too. love it. I've even used my samsung pay watch at a gas station pump not ready for mobile payments by swiping my driver's license and quickly putting the watch signal to the card reader lol. Awesomeness.
I bet they went a long hard way trying to figure out how Samsung would not win and at the end they just didn't want to say Samsung but they had to iknowledge the facts. It's okay CNET, everyone already knows by now Samsung it's the best and the ladies love it too
In India we use UPI. It takes a single second to pay and get credited in the merchant's account or in my friend's account, just have to scan a QR code. No extra hardware required.
Samsung Pay is better and they have good promotions, my phone has almost paid for itself with all of the kickbacks. Also Samsung has said they are open to licensing out MST and Samsung Pay to other OEMs.
Yeah many people working at those shops don't even know that they support Google Pay or Apple Pay. Just say that you want to pay with your card and then just use your phone instead of the card, 99% it'll work.
TheTaxxor That place, the illy cafe, clearly only has a magnetic stripe reader though. Look where the other girl held her phone to pay with Samsung Pay a few seconds later (6:10): they were clearly still using the old magnetic stripe reader attached to the computer screen to process card payments at that place. No possible luck trying to use apple pay or google pay there.
@@TheTaxxor as a cashier I can say you are 100% false. Unless the person has no idea how to run a phone it's always 10x faster. Instead of inserting/putting pin in you just tap the phone or watch and it's done
Very impressed with the review, I expected something generic. You even had real world examples. Well done! I don’t have issues with Apple Pay anywhere in South Africa (Cape Town more specifically)
My two favorite tech reporters! I had Apple, Google and Samsung. I stayed with Samsung not only because it can be used at more terminals, but also they have ANT+ I Can use my running and biking gear plus all heart monitors and training equipment. Plus it connects to gym equipment.
This really should be labelled MST vs NFC - since not everything that has Samsung Pay will work (i..e Smartwatches that only support NFC) which have Samsung Pay.
I just got the Samsung S 10 E and I love the phone. I just added a 512 GB Samsung SD card for: (I am not sure what). I just got on Samsung Pay today, so it was interesting that the reviewers felt it won in this test.
I live in the UK and use Google Pay on my Note 10 Plus, mainly because my bank only supports Google and Apple Pay. Literally every shop I goto has NFC payment terminals, so much so that I rarely use cash these days for small purchases. The only downside is the £30 payment limit, which I wish would be lifted.
Samsung Pay. I've only had a very small percentage of places where it doesn't work, like the liquor store 😂 Their credit card terminal seems to have a really high "lip" that doesn't allow the phone to get close enough.
@@MrG_wasTaken Apple pay is terrible, and onoine orderd Paypal the best. "You feel Like secure" But in reality doesn't mean it is secure because you didn't try others+you don't have a source of security.
In Malaysia, we have tons of mobile payments, and most use QR codes. Google Pay and Apple Pay are not available there, but Samsung Pay is available there.
In London, you can use Apple Pay everywhere that you can pay with card. In fact I don’t think anyone actually uses chip & pin or card swiping anymore, assuming that magnetic strip readers ever worked.
Can CNET it do a more updated version of this video. This is already five years old and it’s definitely outdated Apple Pay is now widely accepted in the US the only places that don’t use it. Are Home Depot and Walmart.
You shouldn't take a wallet with you in London. Dodgy people can 'bump' you with contactless readers. A phone can't be bumped because the screen needs to be on first. Better still, get a smart watch. Better still, get an NFC ring!
UnderArmor_Boy J.H.S at least they've invented the iris scanner, and samsung pay is better than those 2, plus the edge screens, and the heart rate & 02 scanner, 5 of them is actually samsung's innovations
1 year later..., Apple Pay is in a lot more places and mostly everywhere where it counts here in my small hometown. Now the only time I’ve had problems with Apple Pay not working is when the business’ card reader thingy isn’t working at all.

If Samsung Pay doesn't work, the shop is doing something wrong. It's literally read as a credit card. The reader doesn't know the difference. It gets the magnetic signal and voila. If it didn't work, they're pressing the wrong button or keying it in wrong. I've had that happen a few times, I was persistent that it should work, to try it again as credit, and it worked. Your lack of persistence shouldn't have any effect on whether or not you think it's good. I've used mine everywhere, been told 1000 times it's not going to work. I've always walked out with the bill paid.
It won't work if you have to insert the card. Only works for swipe payments.
@@taydinghan00 and NFC just like the others .
I totally second Jacob here. My experience is exactly the same. Most of US citizens buy iPhones soooooo blindly that they have no clue what other phones like Samsung have to offer (which in my opinion is faaaaaaar better than iPhones). For instance they have no clue what Samsung pay is and the moment you say "I'll pay thru Samsung Pay" they'll bring up the screen on their terminal which is used for manually keying in the credit card number, obviously Samsung Pay will not work when their system is in manual entry mode. I've to repeatedly tell them to act as if I'm swiping my physical card and then let me use my phone when it's time to swipe the card. Finally they understand that its exactly similar to physical credit card swipe as far as they are concerned and are amazed when the bill prints out.
I used a self pay machine at a Lowes and my Samsung pay didnt work. I then tried with the teller (not sure exactly what her screen said but we tried debit and credit) and still no dice. It's worked EVERY other time tho, I have a feeling it was just a freak thing.
I hear you but not everyone likes confrontation enough to be "persistent". You put up with crap all day at work and home; who wants to argue with a clerk making $12/hr? It's perfectly reasonable to factor that into any comparison even if it's not Samsung's fault per se.
In Australia literally no one swipes their card anymore. NFC is huge, I use my Apple Watch to Pay all the time and sometimes I tap my card not swipe it using pay pass or pay wave, literally every terminal has nfc.
I fuckin love being an Aussie
No one swipes cards anymore outside the US. In some regions such as Europe or Australia, NFC is ubiquitous, and in others such as Mexico and other parts of Hispanic America chip is already the standard, but magnetic stripes are part of the past in most of the world outside the US.

3:29 what do you mean
If ur pressing continue and confirm purchase that means ur buying it.
I’m sorry that’s just stupid
The missing security is worse than stupid. Means that if someone steals the phone from your hand (ot if it has got a bad security like face unlock) they can turn off screen/phone time out and shop away untill you lock down the phone remotely...but since your phone is stolen that can take some expensive time, ESPECIALLY if you are abroad (where the risk csn be a lot higher for theft depending on where you travel)
@@bigbadboogie6842 if anyone steals a card you could just call the bank and they will block it out.
It’s not stupid. Any thief can press continue if they were to go on a online retailer and use your info. Having any sort of security measure is smart including Face ID which works really well. (Not sure what the other guy is talking about)
@@bigbadboogie6842 what's the difference from using a bank card? In Australia we can spend $100 without using pin code or inserting the card you just tap it like the phone. So you can literally take anyone's card and spend as much as you want as long as each purchase is under $100

She's correct. 90% of shops in Australia use contactless payment.

Could be. I don't have any specific numbers to back it up.
Dane W Yeah I keep forgetting my pin cuz of that lol
A report from Visa in November 2017 showed that contactless payments here in Australia were 92% of Visa face-to-face transactions, up from just over 80% earlier in the year. With a big rollout of updated eftpos machines earlier this year, I'm sure we are higher than 92% today.
We lag a bit behind in Canada, but it is certainly better than having to watch someone in the US stare at the bottom of a reader to figure out how to use EMV.
If this test was done in the UK or Europe I’m pretty sure it would be a tie because almost if not all the shops I’ve been to have contactless payment which allows you to pay with your phone
Or in Canada
Yeh good point

Samsung actually rewards you for using it so I'm Sammy all the way even when I'm not using my galaxy phone I have it on my gear s3 watch
tony lansky It did, now they've taken away the most beneficial reward the free visa cards. Samsung's being cheap now. Now you have to save up thousands of points for their mostly outdated merchandise (which isn't selling well) or gamble your points to win a prize with the digital spin the wheel gimmick (which you never do).
What rewards?
@@stevethea5250 items, samsung accessories or digital gift cards you could save up for with your points you acquire by making in a debit or credit card transaction. It was a nice program but now it's shitty because samsung has raised the amount of points you need to acquire to get items and limits how many points you can acquire in one month. They've recently removed the visa gift cards as an item you can acquire with the points.
Tampabruh at least samsung still give you something unlike apple and google so it's not fair to say that samsung cheaped out and they had those rewards at the first place to bring people to the samsung ecosystem but now with more users they would have been in a loss if they continued their rewards from a business standpoint.

My nearest convenience store gives me a "chip read error" but I have used it everywhere else, without any problems. People constantly tell me "we don't take Apple Pay" or "we can't do electronic payments", and then I pay with Samsung pay. It's not an electronic payment, like people think, but just communicating the card info with the card terminal.

Swift Boiz I doubt the fee has anything to do. Apple charges the banks higher fees than Samsung, yet Apple Pay has expanded to a lot more countries than Samsung Pay.
Also, this video is obviously aimed at the US where a lot of merchants still don’t even have a chip reader, let alone contactless, such as the illy Cafe shown in the video at 6:00 minutes, where they only have an old 1990s magnetic stripe reader attached to the computer screen.

@@aba792000 But Samsung pay worked and it's also NFC or isn't it?
TheTaxxor Samsung Pay does have NFC, but it also has the MST (magnetic secure transmission) technology that allows it to work on magnetic stripe readers. The latter is what was actually used at the two places where Samsung Pay worked but Apple Pay/Google Pay didn’t because there was no NFC, which were the candy store and the illy Cafe.
I've been using Google Pay in Australia with my S7 Edge for an entire year and haven't found one terminal that doesn't support it. I've literally been in the middle of remote country-side towns and never found it not to work. Same story with Apple Pay I'd suppose as they both use NFC. Been great so far, amazing to see the US so behind here.
It's a strategy from Apple to convince Samsung users to switch to the Apple ecosystem which is stupid, but hey its for customer attraction.
If you lost your card, you should cancel it. Fast.

In Central Europe you can use the NFC payments everywhere where is a terminal. We don't use the magnitic stripe anywhere. So it doesn't matter which service do you use.
We don’t use the magnetic stripes anymore in Latin America either for security reasons, but since contactless cards weren’t a thing in the region, the only thing that’s accepted everywhere is chip cards being inserted (or Samsung Pay over MST, since all the terminals still have the magnetic stripe reader too despite that it isn’t used anymore).
*Samsung Pay all the way*
When nobody talks about Google pay.
Google: *Leaves saddened*
There’s one specific convenience store in Brazil that won’t activate NFC, even though the terminal has that function. Except for that one, NFC is available everywhere (in the big cities).
3:35 How TF do you accidentally purchase something?
It has a confirm button and by default a password screen for every purchase.
Maybe that's the El Salvador version.
For the machines that require you to insert your card (like a gas station pump), just insert a card with the strip on the wrong side, while holding your Samsung Pay device up close to the reader. All you're doing is activating the strip reader, which detects your phone.
Good to know, will have to try that -- then again, does kind of defeat the purpose of having just the phone with you!
yeah, but you get your .5 pt for the transaction.

I’m an international student from China. To be honest, convenience wise, there’s no difference. Because not all of the stores take Alipay or WeChat pay, so I still had to bring cash with me just in case. In the west, cards had already been there since forever before mobile pay came out. The cashless system in the west is to replace cards, while the cashless system in China is to replace cash.

The fact that ppl get so worked up about having to download an app amazes me.
It must suck to have a phone with limited storage.

My only problem is the amount of spam and ads I get with each new app.
@@davidnoll9887 I know the pain
New phone be like 40GB+ already
I just got the Samsung S 10 E and I love the phone. I just added a 512 GB Samsung SD card for: (I am not sure what). I just got on Samsung Pay today, so it was interesting that the reviewers felt it won in this test.
I still prefer cash, thank you
It’s untraceable
Tf u buying?
If you want privacy just use bitcoins. Trust me you can buy whatever you want
If only the US was quicker upgrading payment terminals.
SamsungPay!
I live in the UK and use Google Pay on my Note 10 Plus, mainly because my bank only supports Google and Apple Pay. Literally every shop I goto has NFC payment terminals, so much so that I rarely use cash these days for small purchases. The only downside is the £30 payment limit, which I wish would be lifted.
Samsung pay with my note 9 and Galaxy watch, they are the best
Samsung Pay. I've only had a very small percentage of places where it doesn't work, like the liquor store 😂 Their credit card terminal seems to have a really high "lip" that doesn't allow the phone to get close enough.
I love Apple Pay, use it everywhere and feel safer tbh.
But the samsung better because it uses MST wich mean real replace
ahkh but you can’t use it in online orders, plus my concern is security not what’s best out of Apple Pay,Samsung or Google
@@MrG_wasTaken
Apple pay is terrible, and onoine orderd Paypal the best.
"You feel Like secure" But in reality doesn't mean it is secure because you didn't try others+you don't have a source of security.
ahkh lol paypal has gotten hacked. And you’re just trying to play the fanboy here. Tap pay is safest way, whether is Samsung or Apple.
@@MrG_wasTaken
Paypal is the leader.
In Malaysia, we have tons of mobile payments, and most use QR codes. Google Pay and Apple Pay are not available there, but Samsung Pay is available there.
In Canada NFC is everywhere(except Walmart and stores with older payment terminals).
In London, you can use Apple Pay everywhere that you can pay with card. In fact I don’t think anyone actually uses chip & pin or card swiping anymore, assuming that magnetic strip readers ever worked.
it's called "Freedom"!!!
Samsung is best, not to mention if you have a Sammy you'll have both Google and and Samsung pay
Can CNET it do a more updated version of this video. This is already five years old and it’s definitely outdated Apple Pay is now widely accepted in the US the only places that don’t use it. Are Home Depot and Walmart.
Here in London I never have to use my wallet. Contactless baby 😎.
You shouldn't take a wallet with you in London. Dodgy people can 'bump' you with contactless readers.
A phone can't be bumped because the screen needs to be on first. Better still, get a smart watch. Better still, get an NFC ring!
Samsung is the best Innovative tech
Gman Gear 😂
UnderArmor_Boy J.H.S at least they've invented the iris scanner, and samsung pay is better than those 2, plus the edge screens, and the heart rate & 02 scanner, 5 of them is actually samsung's innovations
UnderArmor_Boy J.H.S and the IP68 title, plus directional unlock and bixby voice unlock
ok then bud 💯🍎

Sasmung put out things but later on improve them but apple takes those ideas and says that its theirs
Samsung pay with mst for the win.
1 year later..., Apple Pay is in a lot more places and mostly everywhere where it counts here in my small hometown. Now the only time I’ve had problems with Apple Pay not working is when the business’ card reader thingy isn’t working at all.
SamsungPay is better than everthing else IMO.
I never ask if they accept Apple pay, I just place my phone there and it works. I haven't had any issues
Well there's a big difference between NFC and MST as a mobile payment method.

(In Canada are money isn’t made from paper if u didn’t know) .,.
