Re: Samsung Pay, Android Pay, Apple Pay -- Thoughts?

I would like to try Samsung pay but it's very limited now, only 4 (their newest) phones work. And so far, not many CCC..

I've used both Apple and Samsung Pay. Samsung Pay works at more places. I mainly use AmEx so they support it.
Only bonus with Apple Pay is the Discover bonus running right now.

Even before the 10% bonus, I had been using Apple Pay with my other cards.  

 

Overall, for places that accept Apple pay, I can see myself using mobile pay (Apple Pay or Samsung Pay matters little to me, just want the most effective and efficient) for places that accept them.  Initially, I didn't have a preference, but after using it, I think mobile pay is (or, should) the future.  The stakes are high (stating the obvious) and whoever corners this market will have a leg up on their competitors for years to come.

 

Could be a potential "game changer," in my view.

Im loving samsung pay. It works with almost every machine that requires a swipe. All my credit cards are supported except for discover. I also like their new "events" feature which is like amex deals or boa cash back deals.

I think that, as chipped cards are coming into use, the contactless systems will get more popular, since they save time.   However, it seems like many places have the capability and don't advertise it very well.   I didn't know Office Depot took Apply Pay.   Kohl's was one I discovered on accident, too.
