samsung pay

Samsung Pay works fine at chip terminals. Whoever started that rumor is badly misinformed. Clerks will even comment how much faster Samsung Pay is.

The only chip terminals that won't work with Samsung Pay are at Lowe's where they've purposely disabled them, as documented in another thread.

Speak for yourself. I've had errors in other places where I try SP and the machine requests the chip to complete the transaction.

Haven't had any problems using my GS7 at chip terminals either, and yes, my Visa card does have a chip.

Does that happen at terminals that also accept Apple / Android Pay? Is NFC enabled on your phone?

I've never paid attention to that detail. I almost always use MST. So no, my NFC is not enabled.

I am speaking for myself. I've been using Samsung Pay since I've had my S7E. I live in Tucson, AZ. I've also used Samsung Pay in Phoenix, San Francisco, Victoria B.C., Milwaukee, Racine & West Palm Beach. I've never been asked to insert my chip card. Only exception, discussed at length in another thread, is Lowe's which has apparently disabled simple swipe transactions forcing all users to insert chip cards.

I have a Samsung reward card with some money on it that's been added to my Samsung pay. I tried to use it today at Walmart and it wouldn't take it. I used the default PIN. Is there a different pin on should be using.

If it helps I have the $15 I just earned from Chase and the $10 that I received when I signed up and the purchase I was trying to make was a little less than $20

The Safeway grocery stores in my area recently upgraded their self checkout terminals to use the chip readers, but SP on my S7 still works with these terminals.

Anyone?!?!

Anyone?!?!

I'm guessing it wouldn't take it because your purchase was more than the balance on the card. Try asking the cashier to split the payment between cards.

I run my gift cards as credit transactions and I've never had an issue.

10+15=25. My total was less than 20. *facepalm

The chip issue is because somehow the credit card companies convinced our government that the liability for fraudulent transactions should fall back to the merchant unless this new technology is used.
