Update: 11/23/24...even more ads. Update: 10/29/2019...Still love the functionality of Samsung Pay but I'm going to have to knock a couple of stars off the app due to Ads being included in the pay screen (really?) and the diminished rewards program. Instead of using Samsung Pay as my go-to payment method, it's now backup use only for when I don't have or forget my wallet.

Have been using for quite some time and as a previous user wrote it just quit working. Got sick on pin verification page and could never get logged in. Very inconvenient while at the grocery store with a bunch of cold food. Checked for an update and there wasn't one. Un-installed the app and re downloaded it. Went through set up and login but it just sat there loading continuously and never let me in. Deleted it. Will find another mobile wallet. Too much hassle.

Boarding passes service needs to be improved by incorporating more important and relevant information, such as boarding time and class. It should also adopt a more aesthetically pleasing design for boarding passes. Google Wallet is an example of this, as it uses different colors to differentiate between cabin classes, like in the Fly Delta app for example.
