The update produces an error for a moment. That it is not compatible.

It's a preinstalled app. There's no security issue here.

Please do the clear cache of the Samsung Pay app and restart your phone and check if it works.
Go to Settings>>Apps>>Select Samsung Pay app>>Storage>>Clear cache.
If the issue still persists, please get back to us with your phone model number and device status, you can find it from settings >> About phone >> Model Number.

Hi SamSungtwo,

Please note that the Samsung apps doesn't work properly if the device has a custom OS on it. To know the OS status, I suggest you to verify the device status on your phone and let us know to help you further.

I have an A50 and the version I have is 4.0. 00. In the app store it's called Samsung Pay Canada, since I'm in Canada. The app can be uninstalled. The phone has Android 10.

I am still running android 9, and I am also in Canada.
I don't b know if the app is removed in android 10 but I cannot remove it. I also do not see Samsung pay Canada in the app store.
