your case is abit different, only GS3, i assume if there is reward point, you wouldn't know whats the point are since you dont have phone that support SPay to see the point
i think maybe you need to have a phone that support Spay, start the Spay on the phone to initiate a Spay account container to store the point, else the point goes no where, probably thats what they mean by no point available in the FAQ you mention just now? just simply guessing.
Mine is, i already have the phone, got the Gear 3 later, have been using Gear 3 almost a month without opening the Spay on the phone, later i open the Spay on the phone, i click on reward point, refreshed ~the point jump by few hundreds, thats how i come to conclusion it does have reward point.
Does the transaction you made with s3 shown on the spay ?
how did you guys know it's only one unit of the s3 can be redeemed? I can understand the sudden emptiness, really kena taken for a ride this time. And I just bought a wireless charger and a sport Bluetooth earphone online like a week ago. Should have redeem the lazada voucher first if I had know its only one unit of s3 can be redeemed. Samsung pay, you sucks 🤣😂
i was aiming for 6,999 points. I already have 4,300 points and now i do not know what to do?
I doubt is 1 unit, but for sure very fast finish redeem especially when it is a high value item and almost consider free.
Even iPhone x bloody expensive can still sold out in one day
I think alot people pissed off because they missed the boat, especially those that spend unnecessary to achieve the target.
Furthermore, it is almost impossible to achieve the target via normal spending, hence I would think Samsung would just allocate not much Gear S3 for redemption
Normal spending is hard to hit 50 purchases because most CC terminal do not support Spay.
Concern Samsung will raise the biggest prize redemption points.
I ask those cashier can't you just key in the amount before I put my card since he insists physical card and no wave. So I can slap the fact on that face. Because I saw the side got magnetic slider. Damn those ignorant cashier
I did see someone post before that Samsung did sent a email asking for screen shoot before they sent over the item
I am quite disappointed how Samsung let people abuse Samsung pay them redeem prize. Genuine user like me use between rm50 to rm200 a day end up cannot hit target
i'm one of the genuine people and i can hit my target every month - always managed to get 50 transactions, just have to be at the right place to do it and its a lot of effort. sure there are some people out there that have credit card machine that can do it very easily with minimal effort, but we're able to do it the legit way too
I hit 50 transaction monthly too but sometimes I separate an item 5 times to buy
Since SamsungPay point collection is based on number of transaction and not amount, you got to be creative.
Example: 1. while my wife doing the grocery, I will pay 1 by 1, just a lot of walking and 5 mins waiting time. 2. You can pump rm3 petrol in the morning and another rm3 in the evening 3. Or camping at places like MyNews, Caring, Watson, Guardian 4. Since MasterCard have the rm15 rebate promo, I pay 1 item by 1 item (rm15 or above)
It depends on your strategy how u wanna collect the points. Like this month I have exceed 50 transaction (Should be around 80 already)
I don't stay in town. Outside town they prefer cash and those accept card got minimum amount like rm30 and above only accept card.
I used to pump petrol rm50 instead now I pump rm30. Not all petrol station accept spay out of town. I only found one BHP that accept spay the rest don't allow.
I also pay 1 by 1 and I do it early in the morning at giant, tesco or aeon.

The acceptance is not as wide as McD. McD accepts card without question asked nor min amount required. They're happily and smiling to accept card. Even an auntie or a senior citizen manning the cash register is trained to accept cards. This kind of attitude we need for cashless or electronic payment society.
The only McD I went so far that doesn't equip with CC terminal is at Bandar Baru Kampar near to UTAR/KTAR Kampar.
The acceptance at Tesco, giant and aeon also good.
