I've used it there. I think only at the self checkout though. I don't think I've tried at a register.

It should work almost anywhere, however some terminals it may require a transaction key to be entered before the swipe reader is activated without a physical swipe.

I have been under the impression that Kroger has its own mobile payment program (Kroger Pay) and does not accept either Samsung or Apple Pay. I wish they would, and if they really do accept Samsung Pay, then they should also accept Apple Pay.

If they have magnetic card readers that will accept a physical credit card it doesn't matter what policy they may have as far as "accepting" mobile payments. Samsung Pay will work because it doesn't require the same tech or equipment that Apple Pay or Google Pay would require. The store can turn off their NFC terminals and Samsung Pay would still work.

they supposedly had their own kroger pay but I could never find it on their website or their app though the last time I looked was a few months ago.

Kroger is one of the most popular grocery stores down here. They're everywhere. At one point we had 2 in my town.

Kroger as a brand is definitely regional, but if I'm not mistaken they're actually the largest grocery chain in the US. They own other regional chains that go by different names. Baker's Supermarkets, City Market, Dillons Supermarkets, Food 4 Less, Foods Co., Fred Meyer (technically a hypermarket), Fry's Food & Drug, Gerbes Super Markets, Harris Teeter, Jay C, King Soopers, Mariano's, Owen's, Pay Less Super Markets, QFC, Ralphs, Roundy's, Ruler Foods, Scott's, and Smith's) are all owned by Kroger.

Not to mention their rewards program, which offers great savings on fuel at their fuel centers!

Definitely! That's why they closed the older one here because fuel pumps couldn't be added. It's a bummer though because the other one is about 15-20 minutes across town.

BTW, what are you doing cheating on iMore over here? LOLOL
