Some complain about no 'confirmation', on the device that the payment was successful. Was that the case for you, too?
On the two purchases once I held the phone close to the swipe part of the terminal, I received a processing message within Samsung pay and then moments later the receipt printed out. That's really the only way I know it went through, but none the less, it works

Used Samsung Pay twice today at a Walmart and McDonalds. Worked very well. I think the additional payment confirmation and transaction history will show up on the phone when it is officially released and not in beta like now.

Used it at Wegman's today. It worked great. The app showed a green checkmark letting me know the payment was accepted, in addition to it showing up in a notification and transaction log.

I haven't gotten any notifications while using it and nothing shows in my transaction log, and I've used it at least 6 times successfully already. I'm hoping that's just an issue with the beta. I've yet to see a green check mark either. The only way I know it has worked is by the terminal beeping.

It worked perfectly for me. Even got a notification that the payment went through. Even got the notification on my Gear S. The merchant was impressed. The mag thing worked fast.

Used it today at Lowes. The terminal said it was accepted but the cashier was not able to complete the transaction. Tried twice. Couldn't complete the transaction. Had to revert back to the card. Will try again tomorrow.

I've used it at multiple stores that do not have NFC with perfect results so far.

I got a confirmation with the $ amount in the app and notification area after each transaction.

This was using my Sprint Note 5 with a US Bank card.

So far very impressed.

How did you get it up and running? Also on Sprint and it says I was accepted but the Samsung Pay app doesn't show squat.

The link in the email should have an update for Samsung pay. Once it's installed just start the app again. It will walk you through everything.

Once I was accepted I just opened the samsung pay app and it prompted me to download a 26mb update.

Be sure your phone is signed in to your samsung account I think it uses that to verify you are eligible.

Is anyone on Tmobile? If so, did you get the download link? I got the acceptance email two days ago but I still can't download it.

Finally got the Install button tonight. Used the card to buy something at 7-11 and Kroger. It's some sort of dark magic.

Edit: btw, T-Mobile Note 5. Accepted into the beta on 9/1
