Samsung pay thread part II

My phone worked on this side monitor card slide today

Discovering the "sweet spot" is one thing and waiting for the terminal to beep in response is the other.

Some terminals don't beep though which is a bit of a pain lol

Today at Starbucks I had to pay a little since my starbucks card didn't have enough on it to cover my purchase. I tried my phone a few times but it didn't work-I always have a tough time with it specifically at the Starbucks terminals. Anyway I decided to try my gears2 watch and it worked quick and easy lol. Wonder why it was so much easier with the watch. Phone works flawlessly just about everywhere but it doesn't play well with the Starbucks and sometimes walmart.

OK, so I successfully used Samsung pay at King Soopers last week. Last Thursday, I was at the car dealership to get a new car and wanted a bottle of water. The Machine had the NFC logo where you place your phone but I couldn't get it to work. I unlocked the phone, swiped up and held the phone to the machine with no luck. I used cash but of course, forgot to get my change after getting my water.

Since I am still a newbie at using Samsung Pay, was I supposed to press the pin button on the screen to be able to use Samsung Pay? I know I did this at King Soopers but didn't know if it was something I had to do all the time.

Yes pin unlock must be done for it to work. I setup fingerprint unlock for quickness

Thanks, I just was getting ready to post that I figured this out. I realized also that I didn't have my fingerprint setup with it but I do now.

Love the Samsung pay??????

It's amazing. I can't wait to use it in more places.

I've successfully used it even with little square readers. There's this great cupcake shop near work and they have the square reader on a tablet. Love it. It's worked for me also on the card readers that some places have down the side of their register monitors

Has anybody else had problems with membership cards since the latest Samsung Pay update? I have no problem paying for purchases, but scanning membership cards hasn't worked at the two stores I've tried since updating to the latest version.

Yes, you need to press the "Home" button with your fingerprint to enable the transaction. Not sure if you can do it with PIN only.

I haven't tried it at Starbucks again after it wouldn't work that one time. This is where I really want it to work. Lol

Tried it today at a Converse store, it looked like it was going to work, but it froze the machine, and ultimately didn't work. A little bit later I was able to use it at a vending machine that takes cards. I got a water for me and one for my fiancée, and the person after us took the opportunity to get a drink on me too, because I forgot say no more purchases after I got the 2nd drink. I looked at my Samsung Pay notification with the total, and it was am extra purchase on there. I quickly ran back, after literally 2 minutes, and it was completed and off of the screen. I hope they enjoyed that soda.

I've only tried Kroger membership card & it would not scan at all so I just input my phone# like I've always done but Samsung pay works every time. I haven't been to any other store yet that I have a membership card with.

Stupid question but can I use Samsung pay on my s7 if it isn't activated with a Sim card?

You need a data network connection

I figured that much.

Did you just get the phone ? Curious why you were asking about the sim card / Samsung pay
