Bitcoin Forum

Hi guys, I want to do a test: try to add a bitcoin card like AdvCash or Xapo to Samsung Pay, but I don't have a Samsung phone, so, if you could do this test for me or something like that and post the result here, I'd appreciate, thx

I dont know how far those technonoly has been developed, i do saw those at the Brazil  Olympic Games, but i believe there is more countries with this system, and it will be the future as almost all has a cellphone with internet acess.

if you don' have samsung mobile phone. then what is the need and sense in doing this test?
people attach a card when they need to buy something...
I have my own samsung smart phone.. I can do this. but it takes some time as I don't have any credit cards. I need to apply for a card first.

Is it something credible information ..? . because I do not know it well or have never heard of. If indeed it is true, then this is something that is very good. But it would be better that not only samsung but all smartphones

I think it will be accepted. because Credit cards are accepted everywhere. when you can use a bitcoin related credit card to any ATM. then you can use that to connect with your mobile app store also...
Actually bitcoin credit cards are not filled with bitcoin. they will be filled up with USD..

I don't have a bitcoin card nor i have a samsung mobile, but it is a clear thing that the card will be accepted because those cards for bitcoin are accepted everywhere in the world as the money inside them are converted to any currency when used, so if you use them anywhere you can but all it does is costing you the fees of currency exchange.

As far as I know the Samsung Pay should be the same with Apple Pay so both of them use debit/credit cards to pay with.
So as long as bitcoin debit card is valid it should work.

Have a samsung phone but never tried samsung pay with my bitcoin debit cards but have done several purchases using those cards in google play store without any problem. So if they accept VISA/Mastercard cards than valid visa bitcoin debit card should work there.

In mean time you can also check full detail regarding banks and credit cards they support from here http://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00043884/

Samsung has become this big that they have their own pay service to rival Apple pay? :o
Did not realize this until i came to this thread.
I guess it is not to well known or used service yet.
They should incorporate bitcoin for ways to pay then they will get a large following. ;)

Its their own payment method. They can't just combine that with other payment methods, and say you can combine samsung pay with paypal,bitcoin etc.

Actually every card is labeled by Visa or MasterCard will easy to accepting in every payment method. but are not understand how it works?

I have no samsung phone, but I thought it worth a try, but of my logic if you use a credit card either credit card from xapo, coincard, or similar, I think it would be like a regular credit card, of course you can do it for pay anywhere including in samsung pay

You also could try it with a Samsung Mobile Emulator for PC. I saw more than one online versions of it as well. Unfortunately, I have not found any of the mentioned cards among the supported cards. You can view it for yourself the supported cards here (http://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00043884/). However, supporting bitcoin compatible cards could be an advantageous upgrade for both parties in the close future so let us hope the change!

Try to download MEMU or BlueStacks, so you can run a android on your computer, it's 2 emulators and it's not so heavy, so in this way you can test any app. There are anothers emulators, maybe some more light.

Emulator are not so good ,not every app run on them.
It is preferred no to do any payment stuff from emulator.
i have shifted from samsung few years back ,so they are still copying the apple software.

I have zo admit this is the first time that I hear for Samsung pay. And I have Samsung phone.  ;D How does it work? It is something like PayPal or different? Is it worth trying?

Very worth for trying, for more detailed visiting in this link but i sure that's very useful and a lot of the payment system are accepting in that.

All you can do is converting bitcoin to other digital payment option.or use debit card.there is no such single exchange between bitcoin and Samsung pay is there.

I am pretty sure there is no such exchange right now but with time everything will be possible, very soon you will see  some genius will come up with that services because they can use that opportunty to make big fortunes from Samsung mobile users out there more people probably looking for such services.

It seems the new business is town is starting your own payment gateway, looking at the way payment gateways keep springing up here and there.

Maybe he don't has samsung mobile phone but what the matter if someone will test? If he don't has samsung smartphone than we don't need to test it? This information will be good for someone.

I think it isn't possible via samsung pay but if it's possible than it will convert bitcoin into usd and payment will be made like this. I have sony smartphone so I can't test it, sorry.
