I bought samsung galaxy s6 (920i version) on ebay to use on AT&T. I got a couple of ota updates so far, but I am wondering whether my s6 will get "samsung pay" app in over the air update. Mine is international model unlocked, so I was wondering what would happen next when samsung pay launches in the us. (Maybe samsung pay app will be on galaxy store?)
Samsung Pay is built-in to your S6. We only need to wait for its implementation on the vendor side.

But don't I need a software update to install samsung pay app (which definitely isn't present on my phone yet) on my phone? Samsung website on samsung pay says I will need a ota software update to install samsung pay on s6. What I am wondering is whether the update that will install samsung pay system will come to my phone, which is international galaxy s6 (920i)although samsung pay is only available in the us and korea.
Yes, you would need a service payment app. This will be available once vendors/credit card companies implement Samsung Pay.

Thanks for your reply! But do you think I will be able to download those apps even though mine (international -singapore version of s6) doesn't get those apps via ota update (as samsung says they will start the service only in us and korea?)
To be able to use it your local credit card company must 1st support it together with local vendors. As youe mentioned only US and south Korean markets will go 1st. If successful other markets including yours will follow.

Yes as I am in the United States, samsung pay will be supported from Sept 28th. On that day, carrier-branded phones (at&t/tmobile)will get software update that will install samsung pay system on their phones. But will my phone (unlocked international) get software update that will install samsung pay on Sept 28th?? That is exact question of mine... sorry for bugging but it is very important question for me thanks as always!
Call your US credit card company for details. I feel they can already answer most of your questions as the implementation date is near. It is they who will give you credit and use it thru your S6.
I've found the link to be able to download the Samsung Pay Beta .apk file but I haven't figured out how to get it to install. Does someone else want to try? I'm stuck on a Samsung S6 Edge running 5.0.2. I wonder if you have to have 5.1.1 to run it.
Korea Link - https://kr.mpay.samsung.com/apk
US Link - https://us.mpay.samsung.com/apk
Here's a download link for the Samsung Pay .apk file I found on the Korean link. It lets me install it on my Samsung S6 Edge+ running android 5.1.1.
https://mega.nz/#!cRFkUAhT!8h7kOQ8opFy3YWal7xgw68EByv6dOsgepURGy9C005E
If you don't get a OTA with Samsung Pay, you can probably install the APK from apkmirror or something like that. I would be surprised if Samsung Pay checks model number instead of carrier/location. If it is anything like Android Wallet/Pay, you can install and use it in the country where is active regardless of phone model number. I.e. I have used Android Pay in the US but I can not use it back in Denmark.

From what I've read, it's only built-in on the Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge+. The regular S6 and S6 edge will receive an ota update to enable it (I think this means the OTA will be Android 5.1.1). I am using the SM-G920i (seems to be the Australian version) on AT&T and I received the 5.1.1 update a few days ago. I did manage to download and install the APK from the Korean version of the site, signing in with my regular samsung account (same as on the phone) and just did a google translate on the page to find where I needed to tap to download the file. My cousin has the S6 on Sprint with OS v5.0.2 and the APK didn't install, so you definitely need to be on AT LEAST 5.1.1 for it to install.
Mine installed and runs, but won't go past the screen with the "start" button - I'm guessing b/c the beta hasn't activated in the US yet (which I think is slated for 8/28) with a full release in the US market on 9/25.

I called today and they told me to download the Samsung Plus app from the Google playstore. I downloaded it agreed to the terms and logged in and then inside the app there was a link that said "Join Samsung Pay Beta". So far it doesn't do anything, but it seems promising that it might work tomorrow after the beta has officially begun.

Nope, but in the same boat as you and several others here - got a 920i on AT&T here in the U.S. But seems that Samsung Pay comes bundled with an OS update that of course our handsets will not see as it is targeted to specific country\carrier handset variants. Hoping someone here figures out how to back the apks and associated frameworks off one of those working devices so we can perhaps apply them to ours.
I also have a Galaxy S6 G920i that I bought on e-bay. Mine came from Singapore. I thought I was smart by buying an locked phone. I thought for sure I'd get all the updates sooner that everyone else. FAIL! T-Mobile variants get most updates about a week or two before me.
What really sucks is one of the main reasons I wanted the S6 was samsung pay. Had I knew I was going to run in to this problem I would never have bought it.
I too use my G920i on AT&T and have been searching the web like crazy for a way to get Samsung pay to work on my phone. Has anyone had any success getting it to work on a G920i or G920f? If you have, please share your wisdom.
Any luck guys ? with samsung pay on s6 G920i?

I just recently bought the samsung gear s2 because i wantef samsung pay in my watch. I saw there was an open beta for it. I go into Samsung Gear manager on my phone and yes its it the latest update 2.2.1 and my watch is updated as well, but samsung pay is not there. I saw that the update for samsung pay beta is in the next update past 2.2.1, but it keeps yelling me im in the lastest verson of the app. Its now augest 11th 2016 and the update was in july. I have att service if that makes a difference. Can anyone help or explain why its not there?
Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that the Samsung Pay Beta only works with the WiFi versions of the Gear S2 and it isn't currently available for the Cellular versions.

The beta is now opened to 3G S2 watch models..... Although I can't get mine working.... Installed fine, loaded cards but fails to work....
I now have this same problem. Samsung pay was working, I updated the watch on 02-12-2017 now pushing the back button and holding does nothing.
At least you got cards to load, what phone are you using. i have the 3G model, and i have tried loading about 6 different cards, i even ask friends that use apple pay with their cards if i can try and load it, and then delete if it does, and cant get it to take a card. And EVERY card i have tried is on the list that it is available to be loaded.
I have the S2 classic Tmobile with Note 5. I've found that Samsung Pay works hit or miss, depending on where you are trying to use it. Not sure if it's specific store's equipment issues or what.

Try processing the transaction as credit instead of entering a PIN. I've found that works much more reliably. I use SPay on my S3 almost exclusively (keeping a physical card only for backup) with success 9 times out of 10.
Edit: I don't know for sure, but parameters set by the financial institution may also impact reliability.
Anybody with a rooted phone try out Samsung Pay via the Gear S3? I have the S7 edge and haven't rooted it because I like using Samsung Pay, but if the watch can do it by itself then maybe I can root my phone and enjoy Samsung Pay all in one. Wondering if anyone wants to give it a shot if it hasn't been tested, I would but I'm waiting for Verizon to start selling it, not sure when that will be...
Thanks for the replies and/or help.
**Edit**
Recently Samsung pay for the gear now detects root. Here's the latest as of 11 April 2017:

after looking at what version of Samsung pay had on the watch which was 1.3.1703, I was able to find an apk from sammobile for version 1.2.5202. After downloading that version and I had to manually uninstall Samsung Pay through your phone settings and application manager or installing the older apk on top of the newer one would fail, I was able to access Samsung pay with no problems on my phone and was able to add back my card like i was able to do before. after adding my card I was able to blanch Samsung pay on my Watch but due to my watch Samsung pay version being higher than my phone version due to when Samsung pay updated before, it wouldn't let me use Samsung pay until my phone version was back to version 1.3.1703. but I was able to access Samsung pay on my watch with my cards showing up now. I haven't tried to see if it works but I assume that since the card is on the watch now It should work now. ill attach the older apk for anyone else to try.

you cant install it on the gear3 cause it have to be setup on the phone first so maybe unless you unroot and set it up and then re-root it might stick and work idk

I wanted to know this exactly too. If the Gear s3 samsung pay works with rooted samsung phone this will be an instabuy for me. I'm quite hopeful since Samsung pay for gear s3 is supposed to work with non samsung phones which don't have knox to begin with.
Do let us know the answer when you find out for yourself! Would be very grateful.
I haven't received my Gear S3 yet, but I have a Gear S2 with Samsung Pay setup up in the Gear Manager (it's a separate app from the phone Samsung Pay app). It works perfectly on my rooted Note 4 (which doesn't run Samsung Pay itself), so I suppose it will work the same way after I get the S3.
I think it depends if your root method triggers KNOX. Samsung Pay looks to see if KNOX has been tripped and if it has, you can't add cards. Since you need to setup cards on your phone before you can use them on the watch, you won't be able to use Samsung Pay on the watch either.

Yes that's true for Samsung pay on samsung phones. Apparently however the gear s3 samsung pay uses a separate app on the phone.

That's a good sign. Do update us when you've had a chance to try on the s3!
I have a rooted Galaxy S5, I haven't been able to add a card through Gear Manager. Does it not work since I have a non-compatible samsung pay app phone or is it because its rooted? I heard that samsung pay won't work for android 4.4 and above till they release an update for samsung pay so I'm hoping that is why I can't add a card.
It seems to work with rooted phones. I have a rooted lg v20 and was able to install and set up samsung pay on the watch. I set it up with a card but havent tried it out on a terminal since its really late. But seems like it works perfectly.

That's great news! Would be perfect if anyone with a rooted Samsung phone (ideally one which would be able to run the phone SPay if it hadn't been rooted) could confirm this though. It's entirely possible though unlikely that the Gear SPay works differently on non-Samsung phones.

Samsung pay for the watch or phone? Also do you live somewhere where Samsung pay may not be available? Only reason I ask is because the way to root for the US versions doesn't trip Knox.
I have the international version with custom recovery Etc, knox is definitely tripped and I'm in the US. It won't install on the phone or the watch when paired to the phone.

I have lost all respect for Samsung lately. (Not just because of this issue but with many other of their products added into the frustration) I have been tweeting and emailing with them on this issue for two weeks and depending on who you talk to, you get a totally different answer. Last Friday I got an email from someone claiming to be a developer for Samsung and he said SP on the Gear S3 is supported in US, Australia and Canada. All I had to do was click on the SP app in the Gear Manager and it would install. I sent a reply and said the SP app is not present in the Gear App. There reply was SP is not supported in Canada. When I replied and said they were wrong and that I have my CIBC card registered with SP on my phone and that it works, they said a new version of Gear Manager is coming and we will be able to install SP on our watch at that time. I asked them when this will happen and they won't tell me!! I'm not sure any of the information they sent me is true!!

Just wanted to know if you ever got his working? I'm a Canadian user with an S7 edge and I just sold my Canadian Gear S3 for the American version since I really wanted SPay on my watch.
Samsung Pay was also missing out of the box for me on the American Gear S3 but when I opened the Gear Manager Android app and went to Settings, there was a Samsung Pay icon. Tapping it then said, "Installing Samsung Pay", and it downloaded the following new Samsung Pay for Gear apk:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsun...msung-pay-gear-1-2-5202-android-apk-download/
I'd suggest trying the above apk. No clue why Samsung Pay wasn't in the watch OS out of the box.
I'm also curious to know if Canadian Gear S3 users can now use Samsung Pay in their watches with the above Apk? I believe it installs the corresponding Gear app. Not sure if it's the same apk previously posted. You also have to add your credit cards again in that app. It's different from the regular Android Samsung Pay phone app.
The US Gear S3 has an XML file that says to install SPay on the watch during installation. The same XML file says not to install SPay on other watches. If we could find a way to edit it, we would be in business

So today's update to Samsung pay on the Gear s3 has made it that my watch 's Samsung Pay not work anymore. When I launch it on my watch it says that it needs to update to work. When I press the update button, nothing happens. My guess is that it has to update the app in the galaxy store but since Samsung Pay is not officially out in Canada, it doesn't update. Anyone else who has an American Gear S3 with Samsung Pay have the same issue?

exact same issue here in the U.S. I have note 5, rooted of course with a working samsung pay on my gear s3 classic,

Hey everyone! Just picked up a gear s3 frontier (international version shipped from Korea since I live in Japan). I am pairing it with a OnePlus 3. The oneplus 3 is rooted but im not sure about anything else like Knox etc. Id like to get Samsung Pay working on the watch but of course nothing shows up in the Gear Manager where pay should be.
Not sure where to start, as Id like to keep root if possible, but definitely want to get Pay working with this setup. Any ideas would be appreciated!
I have the option to OTA update to most recent Oxygen OS and that looses my root, which i might try if I get no suggestions. TIA

Hi, some of us in Singapore bought Korea set also faced the same issue, I'm currently using Huawei P9 but I didn't do any modification to it. So I doubt rooting is the reason. Just give them sometimes perhaps? I just tweeted to samsung pay twitter to check on this too.

Thanks for the reply! Please update me here if you get any kind of answer. I might have to try and sell this off and get a US version to use Pay.
Im trying a big list of things, but nothing has worked so far. On the watch under NFC settings it says no tap and pay app is installed, so at least the watch is capable i think...
Samsung pay is only found on US, Australia and Singapore watches. If you didn't buy from one of those countries, you can't find Samsung Pay

Yes, I managed to get Samsung Pay installed in Gear Manager by using GPS spoofing but that didn't put the app onto the watch. It appears if the app isn't on the watch, the Gear Manager app fails. I tried*enabling debug mode but that didn't help.
Are you running a nougat rom? I had the same problem when I tried a nougat rom on my S7E. It says installation failed and pay does not show up in Gear. It works perfectly on a MM rom

Yes, I managed to get Samsung Pay installed in Gear Manager by using GPS spoofing but that didn't put the app onto the watch. It appears if the app isn't on the watch, the Gear Manager app fails. I tried*enabling debug mode but that didn't help.

That answers soooo much! I will work on returning this one and waiting post christmas for the right version. At least its 50 dollars off for the holiday.

Are you running a nougat rom? I had the same problem when I tried a nougat rom on my S7E. It says installation failed and pay does not show up in Gear. It works perfectly on a MM rom

I tried a TON of roms last night, Updated my stock rom to newest MM, tried the beta Nougat, and CM13 as well as CM14 nightlies. All came up with nothing. BUT if you're saying I can GPS spoof and get it to install the app on my watch I may give it another try.

Samsung pay is only found on US, Australia and Singapore watches. If you didn't buy from one of those countries, you can't find Samsung Pay

I thought it was weird Samsung didnt have Pay in Korea. But maybe its just the S3 for now? This watch came direct from Korea so I may fool around with GPS and see what happens. It definitely didnt come with the Pay app on the watch.
Ok, GPS spoofed in the US and nothing shows up in Gear Manager.. Going to try other areas but i think im SOL...

I am in the US- I am saying that I was able to get SP working on the watch only on an MM rom. I also have tripped knox and the phone is rooted, but still works perfectly. I tried several nougat roms and could not get SP installed in the Gear application- it says installation failed...
I check with Samsung Pay Singapore, and they said "only Singapore version can work with it". Screw them, everything is the same, there has to be a way ~
Now waiting for global samsung pay representative to reply
Based on other thread posts, so far all the Gears that have Samsung Pay were pre-installed in the factory with it.
Samsung Pay WAS NOT installed by Gear Manager.
The only watches with it preinstalled are ones from the supported countries.
Thus there's nothing you can do to Gear Manager to make it install Samsung Pay on the watch.
Even people who have Gear Manager in supported countries can't get Samsung Pay on watches purchased from an unsupported country.
Someone please find a way to extract it from the watch as no Gear Manager will install it.

i am using the USA t mobile model and install the Samsung pay.
you need to install the gear plug-in separately from gear store or google play store.
Have been paying for NTUC purchases and restaurants so far it is all working except for on place, the machine just prompt "void"
initially i have problem installing and USA has a 5 digit zip code whereas we have 6 digit when i was adding the credit card details.
So i Wrote to Samsung pay and ask why i cannot get it working....the answer from them is that USA gear S3 cannot work with Singapore cards!!! i thought i was doomed.
so i tried my luck again, i just entered "00000" and Bingo! it works!
i even enter Alipay now and will try in China soon.
i also wish they have WeChat pay which i used it a lot in China. it has been popular for about 4-5 years now for cashless payments.

Everyone has gear plugin app installed (it's a mandatory install after Gear Manager), but not everyone has the Samsung Pay app appearing on watch, especially those in unsupported countries or those with watches sold there.
People are able to get Samsung Pay to appear in Gear Manager with GPS spoofing but it still doesn't appear in the watch.
Where do you find the Gear Plug In separately from outside?

Perhaps the reason why it shows up is because the preinstalled software just needed to be enabled. This would explain why watches sold outside of supported countries never get Samsung pay no matter what is installed on the phone.
