I feel like an idiot but...I've been looking for a Samsung Pay download for my Verizon S6 Edge 5.1.1 and I can't find it. Is it automatic?

its not, but you have to sideload the apk.

Thanks for clarifying. Is it supposed to be available for download via Samsung's app store etc on 09/28 then? It seems weird to get it any other way considering that it's going to contain credit card data, etc.

Samsung Pay official launch is the 28th, but Verizon isn't a part of it. They say they are still "evaluating". People are trying to find a way to make it work on verizon, and I think this guy has.
Its not on the Samsung app store it should be via OTA
4
Oooh OK. I thought I saw in another thread that people were getting it without sideload. It sounds like I jumped the gun and now I just get to sit here and be envious of the non-VZW people who are using it. Though it sounds like a lot of people are finding their financial institution is not supported...

What are the legitimate risks of doing this? I am really interested in trying this:
S6 Edge on Verizon
4
I suppose it could be a modified version to steal your info, but I'd imagine Samsung has already implemented safeguards with how strict they are with Samsung pay security / Knox.. I installed it and it does ask for the full gamut of permissions.
1
anyone know if this works w/ the normal s6?
3
should be the same

I tried but my bank is not compatible so can't go any further, someone needs to try with a working bank.
2
What bank did you try?
1
Chase

I've got bad news for you...
1
I have it installed on my S6, and it works up until the point it tells me my cards are not supported yet. The launch is today at 3pm Central, so I'll try again tomorrow to see if it works then.
1
too bad i probably cant anyway (im on a bank that wot be supported yet)
EDIT: I kinda just wanted to know if it would work so it would be worth the time installing
1
AFAIK you have to be on 5.1.1 for this to work.
2
isn't everyone in 5.1.1 now?
4
Not if you want Verizon + root either :=
2
Well it doesn't work while rooted anyways. Either way, I highly recommend updating, root isn't really worth being so far behind. With package disable you can remove all the bloat anyways, app on the play store.
1
Not if you're on a custom rom. I've been using Revolution and it's still on 5.0.2
1
yea but you can't use samsung pay either way right? since knox is tripped?
2
It's not. VZW don't have unlocked bootloaders. So we can only run debloated roms.
1
Confirmed on my Verizon S6 Edge. I don't have a valid card though.
2
After I installed the apk it says I need a software update to use it on my s6 edge. Did you get that message?
2
I got the same confirmation. Were you able to provision any cards? it says i cannot connect to the server when I take a picture of my card.

Added my bofa card, its pending activation, once that is done I'll try at shoprite :) Verizon s6 edge
2
Were you able to update the app? Can you please provide a step by step of what you did to get to adding a card?
2
It says it is the latest version. I just downloaded the apk off that YouTube description and installed them. Did not do anything special.
1
any luck on activation?
1
Still waiting on activation:(
1
Me too. :( Added my BofA credit card this morning, saw the pending activation message, then closed the app and left it alone for a few hours. Just now, I deleted my BofA credit card and re-added it but it still says it's pending activation. And I added my BofA debit card, but got the same activation message. I also tried adding my Amex card, but it says it failed to register.
1
Have you tried calling Samsung pay or Bank of America?
1
Sideload worked on my Verixon S6 on 5.1.1. Could not test out functionality, I do not have any of the supported cards. Hopefully at 3pm Central they will officially launch and open up more universal support.
1
how do you sideload samsung pay for verizon? is there a tutorial somewhere?
1
The video has links in the description.
1
So what prevents us from side loading the non beta apk? wouldn't it be as easy as grabbing it from a t-mobile s6 and installing?
1
I miss T-Mobile :(. I'm stuck on Verizon.
1
Let's see,
Samsung Pay with 5.1.1
or
Rooted S6 with 5.0.1
1
if you are already rooted, then give up your hope on samsung pay
2
Installed and running on my Verizon note. My cards are not authorized.
1
BoA card added but pending on verizon S6
1
Were you able to update the app? What steps did you take to installing, updating, and getting your card added?
1
Via YouTube link: install framework> install Samsung pay> it will ask you to perform a system update> open Samsung pay and you should be prompted to agree to the terms and viola
1
Thanks. It seems anytime I try to add my card I can't get past the billing address portion. Says failed to connect everytime.
1
Are you on 5.1.1? Tried a reboot?
1
When you sideload this APK, it asks you to update when you launch the app. Clicking update just leads to a "Failed to download update" error message. Don't get your hopes up.
1
There have people that have gotten it to work. Just download a newer version? find the apk.
1
Got it to work. I'm gonna upload the APKs to APKmirror
1
Installed apk on youtube video. Still cant register citi card in the USA. Do you think its because of Verizon? Come ON verizon, officially support this.
1
it sbould be supported by next week, according to Loop pay CEO, who sold the tech to samsung.
2
Would be awesome. It's gotta be embarrassing to verizon that they are always so slow and ponderous when it comes to new tech. They just dont give a rip.
2
I got it installed and everything. But when I go to register a card it just says Failed to register. Try again later. And that's all. I don't have a supported bank, but you would think it would say that it's not supported at least.

This is awesome, but if only it would work on the S6 Active!
