Samsung pay at Walmart not working

[AC Question]

I have used Samsung Pay a couple of times now at non NFC location and they all work great and I love the surprise look an people faces. But it keeps getting rejected at Walmart. Anyone else having same issue?

I have used it at Walmart via mst. They had chip card and mst but no nfc. It was like 3 weeks ago however.

Same here. I have Costco Amex in Samsung pay. Did not work at Walmart 2 times I tried.

I just spent money via Samsung pay at a Walmart and it worked fine. It had chip card reader with no nfc.

I also have an Amex card and it will not work at walmart. I have tried it several times and always says declined. Both at a cashier and self checkout. Many that I've read that are having issues are also Amex... maybe that's related. Getting a chase card soon will try that out at walmart. I've also been to 3 different Walmarts and no go at any.

Same issue here, Amex not working at Walmart. I used to just switch to my Visa card and use that. The past week or so, even that is failing. I read at one of the online sites that Walmart is pushing their deal with CurrentC, so maybe they are doing something funny to block Samsung Pay. I complain to the manager who is normally near checkout.
