Just talked to a customer service rep and he said that the official live version of the app will start a staged rollout starting at 8pm EST this evening. The app will need to be updated to the live version. And he said the adding of cards to the system could be hit or miss until the morning during the rollout. Also said they will work to get more banks online. The MST part needs extra security from the banks to Samsung so it can be a bit more complicated than just using NFC like Android Pay and Apple Pay. So banks will have to jump through an extra hoop but should be well worth it. I am hoping anyway as my bank is a local one and not a national one.
 
It has already started rolling out. For those with the "placeholder" app, they might can install now. I have a friend that is installing on their Note 5 right now.
 
And never mind, when I check, it says this is the latest version.

Are you able to add even supported credit cards like bank of America, I'm still stuck at failed to connect to server error.
