Basics

What is Samsung Pay?
Samsung Pay is a mobile wallet that can store credit cards, debit cards, gift cards, loyalty cards, etc. It allows you to pay for purchases at participating merchants with a Samsung device by placing your device near the payment terminal.
How does Samsung Pay work?
Samsung Pay uses Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to process payments at tap-to-pay terminals. The system also works with almost all other older magnetic stripe terminals that are utilized by many U.S. merchants. Samsung Pay uses Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) for these transactions. The device emits a magnetic signal that simulates the magnetic strip on the back of the credit or debit card.

Where can I use Samsung Pay?
Samsung Pay is accepted virtually anywhere you can swipe or tap you card.

1. In-store purchases – Samsung Pay will work with almost all point of sale systems:
   • NFC
   • Magnetic stripe
   • EMV
2. In-app purchases – You can also use Samsung Pay within various apps for purchases. However, it will not work with readers where you have to physically insert your card into a slot such as those at gas stations or ATMs.

Using Samsung Pay

How do I return an item I purchased using Samsung Pay?
The return process will vary by merchant; however, you may need to present a receipt or virtual account number for the return. Your virtual account number is accessed through the Samsung Pay app. To complete the transaction, place your Samsung device near the payment terminal and wait for confirmation that the return has been processed.

Simple Pay is a quick and easy way to access your payment cards without opening the Samsung Pay app. You can open Simple Pay from the Home screen, apps menu or lock screen.

How do I use Samsung Pay?
When making in-store purchases with Samsung Pay:

This number can be found within the app by viewing the desired card. You may also be asked to provide a signature or debit card PIN to complete your transaction.

Security

How will Samsung Pay keep my information protected?
Tokenization and virtual account numbers are utilized with Samsung Pay. Your personal account and card data are never stored on the physical device or shared with merchants. Each time a purchase is made, the device sends a 16 digit token (that represents the credit or debit card number) and a one-time code that's generated by the device's encryption key. Additionally, Samsung Pay is protected by your Samsung Pay PIN or fingerprint.

What is a virtual account number?
All payment cards stored in Samsung Pay are assigned a virtual account number. This specific number is used instead of the actual card number when you make a purchase. The device account number along with a dynamic transaction-specific security code is used to process your payment. This means that your actual credit or debit card number is never shared with merchants or transmitted with the payment. Select the card within Samsung Pay to view the last four digits of the virtual account number.

What should I do when I receive a new, replacement or renewed card?
When a card is reissued (e.g., new card number, new expiration date, etc.) you must perform the steps of removing and adding a card to Samsung Pay. If your Samsung Pay device is ever lost or stolen, you can use Samsung Find My Mobile to remotely suspend or delete your 7th Trust Bank Visa Credit or Debit Card from Samsung Pay or call 7th Trust Bank using the number found on the back of your card to suspend it for you. You can continue to make purchases using your physical card even when the device account number is suspended for Samsung Pay.

Why does my card image in Samsung Pay look different from my physical card?
Your card image in Samsung Pay is a digital representation of your physical Switz Financial Corporation Visa Credit or Debit Card. The image you see in Samsung Pay may not be an exact copy of your 7th Trust Bank card.

What happens if I replace, update or lose my Samsung mobile device?
If you replace or update your Samsung mobile device, your 7th Trust Bank Visa Credit and Debit Cards enrolled in Samsung Pay will not be automatically transferred to the new device. You will need to set up Samsung Pay again and add your cards to the new device. If your Samsung device is ever lost or stolen, you can use “Find My Mobile” service to remotely suspend or delete your 7th Trust Bank Visa and Debit Card from Samsung Pay. Since your payment information is never stored on your device, there's no need to cancel your card. You can continue to make purchases using your physical card even when the device account number is suspended on Samsung Pay.

What payment information will be on my receipt?
Receipts will look the same as they always have; however, receipts created from virtual account usage will display the last four digits of the virtual account number, not your actual card account number.
