A lot of places I go to has no apple pay. Samsung works on each and every model. I think the problem is Samsung users aren't using theirs the whole time

    y3kt, 25 Oct 2019Exactly, that's why I don't understand how is it possible f... moreMost Samsung users are as clueless as iPhone users. The difference is iPhone basically demands you set up ApplePay - it does so on initial setup, and if you skip it, it'll keep on asking, and ask again after any OS upgrade.

    Samsung, on the other hand, doesn't do this, so most people will never investigate. Look at a typical Samsung user - their home screen will be a cluttered mess, they'll be using the default ringtone, and the screen will be on it's default retina-melting brightness. Heck, most still have the little white factory sticker and plastic on the back after 2+ years.

      I'm not an Apple user, so I don't know, but is an iPhone allowed to have another payment app besides Apple Pay? Because if they're locked into only one service, that makes it easier to take the lead. I have three options on my Samsung and I prefer Samsung Pay because the Rewards, I got two nice accessories so far and it's not even one year of getting points.

              For me, Samsung works almost everywhere.

                  Again you need to make 90 plus time a months for months other wise you will never get a free product. Only gimmick lottery options

It's not the same as if you read it from the card. 3 some systems reject the card if you don't swipe because there is a button that gets pushed when you swipe.

                    So yea MTS is awesome but it fails in many cases.
                    I know because I try Samsung any where I go

                      If you get 3% for gas and everything else is 1% . If you pay with that card using swing pay you only get the 1% which is a shame

                          Apple pay has a way better user experience than Google pay. So apple pay is better than Google.
                          The other thing both Google and apple you can send money to people you know. Even though hope you have to use a different app. (Wallet) . Samsung has nothing like that. Obviously if your bank doesn't support one , then that one is useless regardless of features
