Interesting: https://www.phonearena.com/news/Sam...ng-Pay-to-other-manufacturers-devices_id96449
According to Gadgets 360, internal sources indicate Samsung is in talks with unnamed third-party phone makers, whom it is willing to supply with the special proprietary chip enabling Samsung Pay's unique feature. Current negotiations are reportedly limited to high-end devices only — according to the same source, Samsung is also planning on including the full Samsung Pay functionality in more of its mid-rangers.
Of course, it's hard to imagine many manufacturers will be willing to include and market Samsung's proprietary hardware and software in their devices. To that end, Sammy is also exploring a second option: an optional accessory loaded with the needed hardware. This would certainly fix the above problem, though we can't imagine that many people will be interested in paying for such an accessory.
