How does it work?
How is Samsung Pay better than Apple Pay or Google Pay?
That MST tech is the sole reason why Samsung Pay takes the cake compared to Apple Pay and Android Pay, both of which only support NFC technology. Since retailers and stores must have NFC-enabled terminals to accept payments via NFC, Apple Pay and Android Pay aren’t as widely accepted as Samsung Pay. In fact, Samsung says that the presence of MST technology means its payment service can work at virtually any place where traditional debit or credit cards are accepted.
Is Samsung Pay safe?
Samsung Pay is safer than having a physical card because it doesn’t actually store the actual card number. Simply put, Samsung Pay stores an encrypted version of the card number that is sent to payment terminals instead of the actual card number. It’s a virtual number of sorts, so the original card number is not stored anywhere on your phone. Don’t worry, though: This doesn’t mean you have to create a special PIN for the card on your phone. Your card’s regular PIN works when you pay through Samsung Pay, so it’s secure and doesn’t require you to remember any special codes.
Samsung Pay also requires you to authenticate yourself on your phone before you can use it to make a payment. You can use the fingerprint sensor, enter the device PIN, or authenticate via the iris scanner on devices that have one. So a lot of security for a very convenient way to pay, making Samsung Pay quite trustworthy.
Is Samsung Pay free?
Absolutely. Samsung Pay isn’t just free, but in some markets, Samsung also gives you reward points for using Samsung Pay for transactions. These points can then be redeemed for various products through many of Samsung Pay’s official retail partners. Samsung also lets you use the points for discounts on its own products in some countries. Furthermore, Samsung and its bank partners have various promotions going on every now and then. These can range from cashbacks on all payments to additional reward points compared to the reward points your bank would give you if you used the physical card instead of Samsung Pay.
