Sorry, ended on 9th March.

For Maybank and CIMB limit.

Malaysia unit of Sammy Gear S3 (Classic & Frontier) does NOT support Sammy Pay...

means for maybank limit max is Rm 250 per transaction? That's not great..means i can't say buy a TV for 1k with samsung pay?

Made a purchase at IKEA, more than RM250. Transaction went through but need to enter PIN.

Is it Maybank card?

Yup Maybank Credit Card.

I bought 3 iphone 7 that cost me RM3000+ per transaction last week. Paid with CIMB credit card.
No problem at all. Seems Sammy also don't know how it's work!

Means the limit can be increased from respective bank?

Hmmm. All this I believe is depend on the banks.
Because I believe Samsung is just middleware to go to the banks.

This one I think no.
Except Maybank Debit Card.

Huh? Why Debit Card can increase limit with Sammy Pay while CC cannot
RM250 is too little if want to pay for retail

Maybe there is some restriction from the issuer side (bank).
Don't know though.

I have try use MST for amount > RM 250 using Maybank but DO NOT HONOR come up.
Plan to use NFC to buy budget phone but not sure where can use it. Lol.

Actually, you are still able to buy a 1k TV with Samsung Pay... But there is a trick here:

1. Pay RM250 with Samsung Pay
2. Pay any amount (not sure if there is a minimum) WITH the credit card (use the PIN payment) that you have registered and used for Samsung Pay
3. Pay your next RM250 with Samsung Pay
4. Repeat until satisfied

I'm pretty sure this will work because I've tested it... That time, I was so frustrated with Maybank CC Customer Service and gave them a call to get them rectify this issue for me... And based on their explanation, Samsung Pay basically uses PayWave and this limit reset applies to PayWave once you have made a payment with PIN payment within the day itself...

However, I found this limitation to be pointless anyway... Hopefully, they will increase the PayWave limit as soon as possible...

Demm, any reason for this? Need to buy Korea unit?

Most probably due to firmware and Bank Negara legislation...(?)

Not many countries support S3 for Sammy Pay...

i've been hit by "read card err" for few shops, just now at mcdonalds i tried also kena but then i try again (instead of tapping at side, i tap at the top wave portion) it works fine..wonder what causes the read card err...any ideas?

Adoi, even Puerto Rico got.

The hardware does not support or just the app to enable it on Gear is yet to be launched for MY?

The pin is samsung pay pin right and not atm pin?

Anyone know what is the minimum amount to purchase for latest promotion of free Samsung S7E?
