Anyone else get accepted for Samsung Pay Beta?

[mrcobra92]

No. I have not. I switched to Android from iOS for Samsung Pay specifically. I signed up for the beta days ago and have yet to receive any emails or updates. Very lame, but I'm sure I will get one eventually.

To be fair, it is a BETA. You are not getting screwed until late September when the full roll out is complete.

So I got the email saying i was accepted yesterday, but when I go to the app, nothing happens. It just shows the "coming soon" thing that it always has. Do I have to do anything special? Or just wait?

I feel like when I accepted my invite, I hit the link in the email, and that brought me to the app on the phone and I went from there. My setup was so easy. If im right, try the link in the email. I don't have the email anymore so I can't confirm.

No link in the email. It just tells me to open the app.

True, but just annoying. I work in point of sale and have wanted to test this from day one. I was actually one of the first beta testers for Loop Pay.

Got the email here as well but the app has no info to install. No updates are available either

I was also accepted but I don't have a software update or anything to install under the Samsung Pay. I received the email yesterday.

I was accepted last week and I have been using it every day. Lady at sams club said "Oh no, you can't do that,, we don't have the tap to pay pads"... I told her to step back and watch the magic... She was dumbfounded lol.

Note 5 is DOPE

 

[LancerzRalliart]

Alert and receipt. Is that function u have to turn on, because when I use it I don't see alert or receipt.

I haven't received an alert or receipt either when I used it. Neither of my transactions from 5 days ago show up in the app.

Got the Email on the 28th and signed up yesterday. Used in CVS today. The young clerk exclaimed "Maaaan! That's wicked cool!!" Tried to hide my excitement throughout. lol

Man can't wait to tryi it. I've been using Google Wallet for along time. So hopefully, Samsung Pay will be faster and doesn't require the app open or screen on to work.

1) Does it work while screen is off or do you have to turn the screen on?

2) What about refunds? If so, who does it work?

3) Does it work on the N920I (International version though AT&T or T-Mobile)

True, but just annoying. I work in point of sale and have wanted to test this from day one. I was actually one of the first beta testers for Loop Pay.

After several days, and 2, yes, 2 accepted invites, I finally got to actually install Samsung Pay, and load in a card. It took many days, and a call to support (which was several days ago). I work in a store, and I was hoping to try it out... and I will tomorrow... but after checking every few hours during the day today (and yesterday, and the day before) it finally changed all by itself to the install and setup process.

It was weird, it took my US Bank Visa Check Card, but I had to call US bank, at a number that Samsung Pay provided in the app, to actually verify my identity and then they say they activated it. I have to imagine that would become a very laborious process for them if it becomes a very common thing. But right now, being beta and only on a few select devices, I imagine the number of people calling is limited.

The operator at US Bank was very pleasant, and knew exactly what I was talking about when I told her. It took maybe 30 second for them to answer and verify my account info, and then maybe 10 second after that to activate my card on my device. Awesome... thats the kind of lag on Samsung I like.

I was also surprised (maybe I didn't research enough) that there is now a slight white "tab" along the bottom of the home screen(Touch Wiz). That I can drag up and reveal my card so I can use it. Looks similar to the edge tab that the 6 edge uses.

Was quite a very simple and easy process for me. Gave three options for verification...receive code by sms, code by email or call your back. I chose code by sms was done in less than 2 mins.
