Is there any news on if/when debit will be accepted on Samsung Pay for the Gear s3 watch?
I bought a Samsung watch with S-Pay in mind and am frustrated that debit isn't supported.

were you not aware of this before purchasing your watch?

Not at all.
S-Pay had only recently launched on the watch in Canada, debit is an option in the US and debit works on phones in Canada.
Debit on the watch would have been a natural extension of the service, and is a reasonable expectation. It's not made clear in any advertising that it's credit card only, and I'm only just now beginning to develop my psychic abilities. ;)

And frankly it's just silly since the watch handles the transaction through the phone anyway, on which debit is an option.

I agree with what your saying .. and yes you would think it's a natural expectation seeing as the watch does credit cards why wouldn't it do debit cards?
