Just tried pay at Tesco using Gear. Gear synched with phone. Transaction captured and points awarded.
Next, tried at Watson using phone. Gear still synched. Transactions captured, points awarded and notification pushed to Gear.

QUOTE(SonnyCooL @ May 24 2018, 05:40 PM) lazy to tell them ... just never return anymore. The worst I been to was laat weekend at Pie Harbour Gurney Plaza. The CC machine is meant for deco. Tried to pay using Wave with physical card. Failed. Then, asked to use PIN. Also failed. Ended paid with cash!

QUOTE(Lingohal @ May 24 2018, 07:12 PM) Used it in South Korea. Phone has data enabled. Interesting POS system in Korea. Even if you don't find a credit card machine like what we have here, don't assume spay can't be used. The cashier tapped my phone at the side of the screen panel for spay payment. Most shops, even small little food shop can pay using samsung pay. Convenience store like 7-11 and other local convenience store accept spay too. You basically don't need to carry a lot of cash when you travel to Korea. What can I say, it's the place of origin of spay.  This kind of panel should be able to see at some Starbucks branches. You tap once on the CC machine and another time on the panel near to the cash register panel.

QUOTE(hebe87 @ May 24 2018, 10:19 PM) Just tried pay using SPay at Sushi Zento, Festival Walk, Ipoh initially the cashier told me that it is not allowed as they need physical card to swipe at their cashier POS to capture the card information I explained to the captain that their cashier POS can capture card info from SPay. He was kind enough to let me try, and then he "jaw dropped" once he found out that SPay can be "swiped" at the cashier POS. then he talked to his staff, after this allow customer to use SPay. p/s: can't forget his jaw dropped expression... haha.. p/s: Cashier POS == CC terminal right?

QUOTE(hebe87 @ May 24 2018, 10:27 PM) edited. thanks ya, i tapped at the magnetic stripe input of the cashier machine (actually this is considered as double swipe already) i just tried my luck coz at Sushi Zento, paying at HLB card entitles 10% off total bill. today i forgot to bring my HLB card out. so i just ask the captain to let me try SPay with HLB card so that I can get the 10% off https://www.hlb.com.my/en/personal-banking/...ento-group.htmlp/s: david83, you are from Ipoh also right? can try there next time I'm not from Ipoh and I make frequent trips to Ipoh.

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ May 25 2018, 07:26 AM) What's there to lose bro... 100p for each is decent enough. Even if you don't win top prizes, there's still 500x 500SPay points for consolation. It's only 500 users for that consolation prize. By now, I believe SPay users base is not small. Good luck to you as you have put high hope on securing one of those prizes.

Is this a bug or what? I found out that NFC is still ON on Sports when payment has completed. This isn't the case with the phone.

QUOTE(Theoutspokenguy @ May 24 2018, 06:15 PM) Sync with phone sure work. But the big question is use watch without phone then sync later. Tried two transactions just now with Gear not synched to phone during POS. Swipe 1: Tesco Extra Time of tap: 5.35pm Time of synch and points awarded: 5.41pm Swipe 2: Guardian Time of tap: 5.45pm Time of synch and points awarded: 6.13pm

QUOTE(Lingohal @ May 26 2018, 02:35 PM) Contest ends on 30 June. Maybe the calls will be made in July? That's also provided that they don't extend the contest period as they mentioned that they have the right to extend it. Normally, they won't disclose! Usually, they call you few times (3x perhaps), if you still all 3 times, they'll move on for the next lucky winner.

QUOTE(singgung @ May 27 2018, 11:09 AM) What do you mean time of sync? Is it you didn't pair the watch with the phone during payment, and few minutes later you pair and sync them? And that's the time of sync? Yes. I didn't pair the Sports with phone at the payment moment. This is more critical to test for as per Theoutspokenguy

QUOTE(Xaser_3 @ May 27 2018, 12:59 PM) Yeah they are testing out the reliability of points being awarded using Gear watch without pairing it with their phone. Interesting to know, how long before the points will be awarded once the Gear is being sync with the phone. If WiFi/data is ON, almost immediate because Gear/Sport needs to sync other info related to Samsung Health.
