I finally got the invitation today to be a beta tester.
After I read about Samsung Pay in Korean news and blogs last month, I had to have it!
I have been a long time Verizon unlimited data plan owner and it was not an easy decision to leave Verizon and stop using my free iPhone. However, the attraction to Samsung pay was strong enough for me to switch to T-mobile. I ordered a S6 via T-mobile customer service and I have had the phone for about a week now.
I had signed up for the beta program even before I received the phone in the mail. But the invitation didn't come. I signed up again and again and again and finally today, the invitation email was on my phone. Bravo!
I updated the phone which took close to 30 min and added a US bank debit card. And I had a chance to use it at Walmart after getting my flat tire repaired. It worked smoothly as expected and like magic!!
I cannot wait to add my Chase sapphire preferred card on it so that I can start collecting Ultimate reward points again!!
Addendum: I used it at Pizza Hut today.
