Samsung pay question

I have a question. I'm a master at using Samsung - have been since the Note 5 , S 7 Edge etc. That part I've got down.

I saw Citi bank as an approved bank for Samsung Pay, yet when I've tried to add my Besbt Buy Visa by Citi bank it says this is not yet supported. Maybe Citi has different versions or branches that are independent not sure.

I just noticed that if you use your master card 3 times by Nov 30 you get a 10 dollar Amazon gift card. Just activate the promotion in the SP app

I just got my Amazon gift card today for this promo. ☺. I'm also at aboiut 3000 pts so edging towards my next $20 samsung visa reward.

I decided to go for it today. I am having the same issue with my bank debit cards. I called my bank, but have to wait till Monday to speak with someone in the department that handles this sort of thing.

I have found that Merchant branded credit cards like Sears Best Buy and others often will not work even though they are from the same bank like Chase and Citi Bank. Though some will.The exception that do work for me so far are Costco, United mileage plus.

I'm not too worried about it. My main bank card Huntington works and my Capital One card also works on it.

It's the absolute best. This really is an advantage for Samsung over their rivals. It can bee used ANYWHERE. I don't know how many times I'd go some place and the teller would try to say that it didn't work...until it did. Loved using that thing on my Note 5.

I have two Costco city card accounts. One card, I installed myself without a hitch. The other card wouldn't without calling the phone number on the back of the card. Within an hour or so, it was successfully added to Samsung Pay.

Costco Citi card works for me. It took about a month after the Amex transition for them to get it going.

Also, Samsung Pay works better in Costco than anywhere else. Just tell them no when they ask to swipe the card.

Paypal Mastercard will not work. FYI.
