Hoped it might be announced at their 'unpacked' event today - nope, nothing, nada.
http://www.samsung.com/uk/samsung-pay/
Not in India, either. Got the new update today, but Samsung Pay is missing. Connected with customer support, and it seems it is still under technical review. For now, it has been enabled only for a few select phones.
Yeah, this sucks. It was the prime reason I bought this watch really and not even a hint of when we might see it in the UK yet.
Not in Sweden either. But i did talk to Samsung and they did say it will come in about 2 weeks. they have just annonced samsung pay beta in Sweden about 2 weeks agoo.
Since i dont have a samsung phone, i will w8 for the S pay in my S3.
Remains to be seen whether this will just be for phones or for the watch as well. We already know that for Europe, MST wont be supported as it relies on a depricated technology.

According to this article April 28th is the day Samsung Pay should launch in the UK....... Fingers crossed!

No one knows for sure other than Samsung. Latest rumour I've seen now says 16th May is the UK launch date. I won't be holding my breath!

Obviously 28th April as I played above wasn't the day for us in the UK, but the same site are now saying 16th May. I'm not sure if it can be trusted though

Samsung Pay has finally launched in the UK. It's on the Samsung Galaxy apps store now. Hopefully the S3 app is alongside it. I can't check until later.

I'm so happy, I've been waiting so long for Samsung Pay to be released in the UK so i can use my Gear S3 to it's fullest extent. Setup Samsung Pay on my S8, check. Update my Gear Manager software, check. Oh... hang on a minute, it still doesn't work on the S3 in the UK.
aaaaarrrghhhh FFS !!!!!!!!
'Useless barstuards' is an understatement!
Same in Spain... I bought exclusively the S3 for Samsung Pay as they advertised it like it had built in Samsung Pay, and nope... I also have the Gear S2 and I had the same problem, they never released it.
Just had a chat with one of their 'support' drones about this... Sometime never is the response, Pretty poor show.
Welcome to Samsung Support. Please allow me a moment to read through your enquiry.

Hi Nigel, how are you today?
13:55
Trying to get samsung pay on my gear S3 watch. Samsung pay launched in the UK on the 16th - cant find it for the watch.
13:55
Unfortunately it is not available for any watches I'm afraid.
13:56
The Gear S3 was advertised as compatible with samsung pay. It works with samsung pay in other countries - US, sweeden, Korea etc - why not in the UK?
13:57
It is compatible with the device, but it isn't currently available to be downloaded yet because it hasn't been released to watches yet.
13:57
Can you give me a date when the Gear S3 will work with Samsung Pay in the UK.
13:58
it has been released to watches - eg in the US, Sweeden, , Korea etc etc
13:58
We currently do not have any information on releases yet, however if you want to contact the Samsung Pay department their number is 03307267729.
13:59
It will be released in the UK, it just isn't available yet.
13:59
Probably never then - time to ditch this gear S3 and buy an Android Wear watch then!
13:59
Ok that it is fine. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
14:00
The misinformation in that exchange and the lack of enthusiasm is quite remarkable.
Obviously, since some of us have it (US, here), it has been released for watches. Although the other day it was "declined" at Whole Foods where it worked a few days before. The underlying credit card did work. But I've not had a chance to follow up at another store or even Whole Foods again to see if it was a one-on problem or more routine.
This is poor. The App is released in the UK, the watch is already capable of being used to pay with NFC...so why is it not available to do on the S3 in the UK
Samsucks! You gotta hand it to them...they really know how to shovel that bullsh*t. I bought an S3 here in Canada, and it went back 3 days later.

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?

Folks, I just received my new Gear S2, and was surprised to see that Samsung Pay wasn't installed, or even available yet for this device. Does anyone know when we will be seeing it here in the states?
Thanks so much in advance!
I asked samsung support. The rep on the other end kept saying the gear s2 doesnt support it.
I told him about all the marketing that was done and he played dumb.
Very dissatisfied here.
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA Free mobile app
Actually the rep was kinda right. i read an article online somewhere that said samsung pay uses "mst" as well as nfc, this is the main difference to android pay but the gear s2 doesnt have mst installed. i dont know very much about these two techs im not sure if its a hardware or software installation or both perhaps but i do know samsung pay needs both to function, at least the current version does anyway. although samsung did say they would be releasing samsung pay for their wearables but didnt specify if it would be for existing models or a brand new model entirely

MST is magnetic secure transmission, it is a hardware chip that emulates the magnetic strip on a credit/debit card.
NFC is near field communications. It uses a coil in the back of your phone to transmit signal to a coil in a receiver.
NFC is used in Android Pay, Apple Pay, and Samsung Pay (when you place your phone on a terminal equipped with NFC)
MST is used only by Samsung Pay, it is what allows you to use Samsung Pay on terminals not equipped with NFC. It is a 'backup' and not necessary for Samsung Pay to work. This is why Samsung Pay is supposed to work on the gear S2 someday. It will be limited to NFC equipped terminals though.

Samsung has repeatedly said that the Gear S2 NFC hardware capability will be enabled via a firmware update to make it work for Samsung Pay (using NFC only, as it does not have MST hardware) some time in 2016, in some countries, for some phones. They advertise it on the Gear S2 page on their global website. Scroll down to the bottom.

But thats different, in Korea we already have few things for the NFC capabilities but still no Samsung Pay :|
Well, here it is September & S2 Bluetooth users have had Samsung Pay for over a month but it seems Samsung is sticking it to us 3G users for some unknown reason(since they won't say ANYTHING as to why we can't get it). At least they could explain to their customers why a key feature we expected and they STILL advertise isn't working. It might stop me from filing a complaint with my state Attorney Generals office.
I thought I saw something that it is harder to integrate it with the carriers on the 3G.

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
Phone- Oneplus A3000 android 6.0.1 rooted, oxygen os 3.2.2
Watch- SM-R760 international, tizen version 2.3.2.1, software version R760XXU1APK6
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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hello agian,
I tried to get my samaung pay to work, pressing the back button for 1 to 2 seconds, did not work, I don't have the samsung pay on the gear app either. I am assuming I have the international version as I dont live in the US or Asia so is it that? Or the fact that I don't have Samsung's phone?
Will the international ever get it? I was completely unaware that my unit might not have samsung pay. Cheers.
I think the international version may be gimped intentionally and might not ever support SPAY.
Is it possible to install the samsung pay app on the gear s3 international version? Do you know if it works? Or it first chech the CSC of the device before running to make sure its a supported country version?
Samsung gear s3 India will get Samsung pay in few days which i assume is an International version
officially lauched on march 22nd, but yet waiting for update. they said a week or two.
watch this youtube video. sorry, i cannot paste url. so i am just pasting the code.

Hello, I have purchased this watch 4 classic 46mm BT version in August last year. It just showed a host of Latin American Countries on start-up and I was unable to change it to somewhere that is officially listed on the list of countries that supports samsung pay. I know a fix for the LTE version has been suggested on this forum but so far I couldn't find anything on the BT version yet. Does anyone have any experience with this who can share with me please? Any input is very much appreciated, thanks!
I've been living in Australia for 13 years, I went to Italy and decided to buy a watch4, I totally ignored the CSC.
Now I can't add my Australian cards to google pay or Samsung Pay even if they work on my phone
