So debit card still only Maybank accepted currently? I missed quite a lot of goodies by missing this
1) my s6 doesn't support samsungpay. Sneaky samsung
2) samsungpay on gear s3 still not available
3) even if I have 1 & 2, I don't have Maybank debit

Currently I'm just using CIMBpay app to get the feel of it. Lol.

I've schemed through almost 10 pages back but can't find an asnwer. If a retailer is using the terminal that doesn't support paywave where they have to slot in the card and ask us to key in our pin, can we still use samsung pay? And if can be used, where do we tap? I'm using gear s3 btw.

I really don't understand starbucks. Before samsung pay, i used cimb pay to pay and after the transaction was approved and receipt printed, the cashier asked for my card which i didnt bring with me. She later told me she cancelled my transaction but still prepared my drink. It was a free latte for me. Lol. Few days ago, i tried with samsung pay at different starbucks, transaction approved, receipt printed and notification came to my watch but then the cashier asked me to tap my watch at a different terminal attached to the monitor for few times but something was not registering. He needed to call a more experienced staff where she had to cancel my transaction and asked me to tap again, then only everything was ok. Something about the cashier picked a wrong payment method the first time. I guess it was the same issue both times where not all cashiers are well versed. I have no such issue with coffee bean though.

But the thing is that, after the more experienced staff came to rectify the issue, I didn't have to tap my watch twice. Just once at the same terminal I used the first time, and everything went through. No additional taps or card or card number required. Just like at coffee bean or mcdonalds.

Lol. How to know which outlets got new system, which outlets got the old one. If i need to take out card from wallet after using samsung pay, it defeats the purpose d. Hahaha. I just wish they have similar kind of rewards / competitions for samsung pay with gear s3.

Spot on. I wonder for places that dont support samsung pay, if we just say paywave, then use samsung pay instead are they going to decline?

Today samsung pay page from samsung gear app suddenly show options to redeem rewards. I thought gear users are eligible for reward points now cause that option was not available before. But after checking their FAQ, looks like it's still not available. Lol.

How did the terminal look like? I just want to know if samsung pay can be used at terminals where they have to slot the card and we have to pit our pin numbers. That's what most merchants use if they don't have paywave terminal.

The hardest part is to convince them to let us use samsung pay when they say they dont support wave. Btw, if i use debit card, it doesn't matter if it's nfc or mst right?

Just happened to me at H&M. Terminal showed do not honor the 1st time. Tried again and successful. But samsung pay list same payment twice. Lol. Before this, failed transaction never registered in samsung pay. Need to check account transaction in few days.

ETA : Just got notification in Samsung pay the 1st transaction canceled. Lol.

For rhb debit the max limit, is it per transaction or per day?

So if I'm paying items worth more than 250, I need to tap my device on the terminal then key in my pin no.?

What happens if I exceeded the limit for the day? Reset or need to wait next day?

Thanks for explaining. I never tried more than 250 too and i also want to know about the terminals that requires cards to be slotted in.

Btw 2 days ago i used spay with my gear s3 at cold storage with no issue. Few hours later i tried at jaya grocer and got "do not honor". Tried twice no success. Then just now i tried to use at mcd also got "do not honor" twice. Donno what's wrong. Restart my watch but haven't tried spay yet.

Yea I reckon it's the bank, not the watch. But it's just strange cause the last time it failed was 2 days ago so I thought the counter has been reset. This means I have to use physical card to reactivate paywave. Really defeats the purpose as I try not to bring this card with me.

Yup I'm using RHB debit. What kind of practice is this? Lol. If I don't complain or report it means I have no problem with my card. Why pandai2 block and require us to use physical card? Your Petronas method maybe I can try but I seldom fuel up with debit card. Don't like that I have to wait few days before they credit back money to my account.

I've had a few do not honor situations with the same card before but I never have to reset or do anything. It can be used at next merchant without issue. One of the reasons I thought it might be the watch problem. Lol

Meh. Still got do not honor at tesco just now. I just asked the cashier to slot my card and key in pin no for sweets that are less than 2 ringgit. Lol. Will see tomorrow if spay can be used again or not.

Yesterday early morning i used spay at mcd. Transaction went through but no notification and didn't appear on spay app. Maybe they have problem now.

I started with cimb pay earlier this year then samsung pay after gear s3 got supported. Now I'm dreading the places where i hv to dig my wallet for small change. Lol.

I wish more places especially for lunch or even mamak support this. First it was syok syok paying with phone or watch but now it's more because convenience. Haha

This was what happened to me at some older Starbucks branches. Need to tap twice. The 2nd one where you tap near the screen is it mst only? Cause once I used cimb pay which can only be used with nfc and the 2nd tap can't be registered and I didn't bring my card. Ended up the cashier just void my purchase and I got free latte. Lol

Their FAQ states SPay reward is not available with Gear S3. I can confirm there's no reward point with transactions done with Gear S3. But then again I dont have a phone that supports SPay so my usage is solely on GS3. Maybe it's a different story if your Samsung account is already linked to a phone that can collect reward points.

I think it depends on store. I just bought something at mynews for rm19.90 and paid with SPay.

Lol. Samsung Malaysia really bad if they only offer 1 GS3 for redemption. Since I'm only using SPay with Gear S3 and not eligible for the reward points, I'm using it more because of convenience. But I'll be annoyed too if the same thing happens to me cause I can see myself going out of way to collect whatever minimum transactions required per month

Anybody using RHB visa debit? This is the 2nd time I faced this issue after 2 and half months using spay. After I tapped at the terminal, it said "received" followed by "do not honor" and transaction canceled. Both times I tried at 2 different merchants and faced the same thing. I needed to use pin & pay, then only can use samsung pay again. I didn't go over the daily limit either. I called rhb they said their only limit is rm250 or 10 times per day. They suggested me to call samsung. Lol. Donno how samsung can help. Any of you know any other limits / restrictions that require pin & pay to be used to reactivate spay? I don't mind if I got a prompt or notification alerting me to reset with pin but as it is now there's none.
