I am hoping there is something in the works for new features for Samsung Pay... We don't have even the gift card option. Also we need new memberships added. There are way more in Canada that could onboarded than what is currently offered. Although I know that Samsung pay allows for great customization when adding memberships that are not supported which I appreciate greatly and have fully utilized. It would also be practical to have paypal available like the U.S. and U.K.  Paypal can be linked to Samsung pay even for face to face purchases. And hopefully transit cards can be added soon. I feel Samsung pay in Canada has been slow at getting major updates aside from slight UI improvements. There's also the money transfers, Samsung rewards, deals & coupons and bunch of other things I am leaving out that other countries are enjoying on Samsung pay that Canadians are missing out on....

I have to agree ...Its pretty basic still no debit card support for Samsung watches plus all the items mentioned above..

It would be nice to see some added features...

Also support for opting out of having your personal info sold to whoever pays the most. This option is available in the US due to California law.

And yes adding support for public transportation payment cards would be great, as many of the used terminals support NFC.

Honestly, as you said, improvements for S Pay Canada have been so minimal, it feels like it has become a mere afterthought...

i totally agree to all of you, i guess it is because not many canadian use mobile payment here, in my experience, i only see once, maybe, every few days, but mostly apple pay, canadian is attached to the use of credit cards and have no confidence on using a cell phone to pay

I have a hard time adding cards to samsung pay, I have, but I've only tried the tap option. Has anyone tried to use the swipe to use more than $100?
Because tap is capped @ $100 @ least for me 🤷‍♂️
Then need to insert or swipe.

The limit is set by your bank. You can probably call them to change it.

I was able to use Swipe with MST to pay for my hotel in Korea. The charge was 650, 000 KRW = 650 $ USD I had used my BMO Harris debit card at the time. (debit cards in the U.S.. use the Mastercard or Visa network not interac so MST works. It worked :). I also once used my Visa Scotia credit card at Thebay for 210 $ using MST as they had no paypass at the time.
