Anyone use Samsung Pay a lot?

I use it whenever possible and even if the machine isn't directly in front of me and I can't see the screen (the ones where it's on the side of the monitor). I just tell the cashier (most of them are curious) that I want to try and use my Samsung Pay and ask if I can hold the phone up to the part where you swipe. It's wonderful. I also love getting rewards. Not sure why Samsung doesn't really drive home how awesome Pay is.
 
My main bank account isn't part of it, but should be sometime this summer based on what they told me. Otherwise I'd use it more often
 
I use it just about every place I go... I say i have about 99 percent success rate using it.
I have already claimed two 50 dollar samsung visa gift cards because of the points i have.
There are times it says card error when using it.. Just try to re-position the phone over the reader
and it works. To be honest it has been a blessing, I went to sonics with it.. they told me it wouldn't work, I said this
is all I have for payment.. then they said sorry for the inconvenience its on the house today.
 
I earned my $20 Samsung rewatmrds visa by cashing in my 5000 pts. Now back up to the 800s. Love using it. Love it on the Gear s3 frontier too.

I use it all the time, one of the features that will keep me using Samsung phones. I find it extremely convenient and useful. As per points, I just earned enough points, 16,000, and got my wife a Gear Fit 2 for Mother's Day. I've used points to get a BestBuy gift card, I think it was worth $20, plus I use and look for coupons in the deal section. In addition to that, through promotions they've had since they started it they've given me a samsung wireless charger plus a pair of Samsung wireless level headphones which work very well.
 
I'm not consistent with using mine. For a while I never could get to the gold level. If it wasn't for buying this phone I probably never would have seen platinum. I stayed I the silver. Lol
 
Been using it since day one flawlessly have platinum status and about 11,000 point's.
 
I had to sign up for CIBC Double Double Tim Horton's Visa card since my two banks are not supported.

I haven't used it but will definitely will since I can get free Timmies. LOL
 
I just started using it with the s8 and I use it every chance I get. Not sure I'll be able to keep it at the platinum level though.
 
I use it every time I can. I mostly use it with my gear S3 and I love it. Female cashiers think it's hot
 
As often as possible. I try not to carry cash on me too often, and I don't like using my debit/credit card everywhere. So I like that Samsung Pay uses a "dummy" number to make purchases.
 
There is going to be a day, in the not so distant future, you won't even need to carry around a wallet or purse anymore. Well, I take that back, you will always be carrying your purse around with you😊
 
I use it all the time. It's fantastic! Everywhere I go the cashier says it won't work and it works like a charm most of the time.

I was at the tiger game last week and the dumb *** at the concessions said we don't take that. I said I bet it works. She says no. I tried it and she says nope. I said try again. She says nope. So I ended up paying cash. I get to my seat and I see it went through and processed two payments. Unreal!!!

I spent almost 30 mins explaining what happened to three different supervisors. None of them believed me that it worked. The last guy, some high up, said he's never heard if it. I showed him the charges. He was like I don't think it worked, but I'll give you cash to make this go away. Seriously!??
 
I've been using it more now. Trying to rack some points.

One thing I just noticed recently was you don't need to turn on NFC first. Before I thought it needed to be on for it to work.
 
Anyone else besides me using Samsung Pay on their phones? I like it! //uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/29c9cf3a2677081912285de241c1483b.jpg

I used it everytime I get a chance (back when I had my S7 of course). Some cashiers think you're running some type of scam. Costco lady was like "Oh we don't accept Apple pay here". I'm like "No this is Samsung pay!" Too bad it doesn't work at gas stations and Chipotle.

Fun fact: Samsung pay is more secure than using your credit or debit card; each time you pay it is tokenized, the merchant will never see your real card number. Credit card hackers will not be able to have your info.
