Kentucky Fried Chicken or simply known as KFC has now announced its partnership with Google and Samsung to bring Android Pay and Samsung Pay to its restaurants across the U.S. The chain now joins popular outlets like McDonald's and Macy's in bringing wireless payments to their customers.
Of course, users have more of an incentive to use Samsung Pay as it can work on standard payment terminals that use magnetic strips thanks to MST or Magnetic Secure Transmission. Samsung Pay also works with NFC terminals, which makes it a truly versatile wireless payments offering. It was recently announced that Samsung Pay has been used in transactions of over $850 million in South Korea alone, which tells us that the technology is slowly, but steadily catching up.
