Samsung is planning to expand the user base of its payment app Samsung Pay, in its portfolio in India over the next few weeks. This service was first launched in March which allows users to just tap and pay using the debit/credit cards and wallets.
It is only available in flagship devices like Samsung S8, Samsung S7 Edge, and S6 Edge Plus. Samsung recently launched two devices – J7 Max and Pro, through which Samsung Pay app will also be accessible. J7 Max is equipped with Samsung Pay Mini while J7 Pro is loaded with Samsung Pay.
Asim Warsi of Samsung India told, “Since its launch in India, we have received the tremendous response to Samsung Pay and we remain committed to taking it to the maximum number of consumers. Over the next few weeks, we plan to extend Samsung Mini as an update to some existing users of devices like J7 Prime”.
Samsung Pay Mini comes with UPI and mobile wallet integration. However, it does not support tap-and-pay using credit and debit cards like the main app.
