Samsung Pay adds support for nearly 40 new banks
Samsung has really been pushing their digital payment system hard as of late, and their efforts are paying off. Samsung Pay is seeing widespread use, and the regions in which it’s available keep expanding. For some Galaxy owners, the only thing holding them back from using the card-free payment method was the fact that their bank wasn’t supported by Pay. If that has been the case for you, then perhaps today is your lucky day. Samsung Pay has now roped in 39 new banks, extending its availability to many more new users.
If you’ve got a device from the Galaxy S7 line, Galaxy S6 line, or the Galaxy Note 5, and your bank is one of those that Pay supports, then you can start making payments with your smartphone essentially anywhere you would normally use a card. The newly supported banks that Samsung added to their official website listing are as follows:
- Achieva
