If you own a card registered to one of the aforementioned Visa and MasterCard issuers, you should now be able to activate Samsung Pay and store your details within the application. Once successfully configured, you'll be able to make mobile payments when you’re out and about in the same way that you’d use your physical credit/debit card.
