A month earlier, Samsung teased about the launch of its mobile payment service in India. Last week, the South Korean company also allowed users to sign up for Samsung Pay through an early access program. Right now, Samsung has unveiled its mobile payment service is now live in the country. Those who have already signed up for the early access program, can now set up their Samsung Pay account and start making transactions.
Samsung has teamed up with a handful of banks – Axis, HDFC, ICICI, SBI, and Standard Chartered banks for the service. Besides from MasterCard and VISA debit and credit cards, the Samsung Pay also allows users to add their Paytm wallet accounts in the app.
However, the Samsung Pay app only works with the Galaxy Note 5, S6 edge+, A5 (2016), S7, S7 Edge, and the Galaxy A7 (2016) in India.
