Getting Started
- Initiate Samsung Pay by either swiping-up from the home button or launching the Samsung Pay app from the home screen.
- Select the card you wish to use by swiping left or right.

Yes. Samsung Pay can be used for in-app payments and online purchases at selected online partners.
Cancelling a payment made using Samsung Pay is the same as a physical card.
All purchases made with Samsung Pay can be returned according to the store’s policies. If you return an item paid for with Samsung Pay, the store may require you to tap your phone onto either the card reader or the NFC reader to complete the return.
Samsung Pay requires an active internet connection for card registration and activation. However, an active internet connection is not required to make in-store purchases. Ideally, the device should connect to the internet once per day to ensure that Samsung Pay stays up to date. Most cards will allow you to make up to 10 transactions before you will need to connect to the internet and refresh the Samsung Pay information.
The last 10 transactions made with Samsung Pay are viewable in the Samsung Pay app for one month from the date of purchase. Simply tap on a registered card in the app to see all the Samsung Pay transactions made with that card*. Additionally, a real-time** push notifications with transaction details will be sent after each Samsung Pay purchase.
*Transaction information is not provided for all cards
**Real-time push notifications require an active internet connection.
No. Displaying transaction history may not be available under few circumstances. Please contact PB Card Services should you require further clarification on your transaction history.
No. The card displayed in Samsung Pay may not always exactly match the physical card.
The payment cards on Samsung Pay are digital versions of your physical payment cards. If you lose your original payment card and then receive a replacement card, you need to remove the original payment card from Samsung Pay and register the replacement card.
Yes. When you disable Samsung Pay or remove a registered card, you are only suspending the token, or digital card number, that has been assigned to your device for that card.
There is not a "default" card in Samsung Pay. When you open the app or activate the favourite cards by swiping up from the Home Key on supported screens, the first card displayed is either the last card you registered or the last card you viewed or used.
The “retry” button appears when the countdown timer has reached its end and the device has not detected an NFC payment or has not received a notification of a successful payment.
The “retry” button allows you to begin the payment process, one additional time, without reauthorizing using your fingerprint or PIN.
When an NFC transaction is completed, the retry button will not be shown.
Additionally, if a payment success notification is received, the retry button will not be shown.
In rare cases, the merchant may ask you for the last four digits of the card number. You will need to provide the last four digits of the digital card number, instead of the last four digits of the physical card. For ease of use, it is located on the left side of the card in the favourite cards screen, and in the main app when viewing your registered cards.
