One of our readers has sent us a record of his chat with two different Samsung representatives, and both mention May 16th as the date of launch of Samsung Pay in the UK. Given the support reps are giving out a concrete date, it certainly seems like the information is based on fact. As in other countries, Samsung Pay will support both NFC and MST payments in the UK to cover a large range of payment terminals.
As usual, there's a possibility Samsung's plans might change, and we'll keep you updated with anything we hear on Samsung Pay for the UK.
Update: We've spotted more evidence in the form of a product page over on Samsung's website that confirms Samsung Pay will launch in the UK in the not-too-distant future, though it doesn't mention the alleged May 16 release date.
Thanks, Alex and Mohammed!
