samsung pay

[Lyz1999]

is it because the GTM uses similar terminal as ntuc (samsung pay not stable at ntuc) that's why samsung pay not work?
anyone use samsung pay or apple pay at GTM machine to top up ezlink/flashpay and successful?
when my ezlink runs low i will try... lol.

Not a Samsung pay problem apparently, tried today with my physical credit card and got rejected again lol due to "unauthorised by the host"

nope, u need the 3 numbers attached on your card

you need to stop posting without first thinking using your brain (if applicable) or finding out the facts first.

Lol wut.. you don't even know your stuff and called people stupid? Of course you need sign lah if not the receipt under the "please sign here" is blank.

Samsung pay is just an alternative to using cards and yes, it does offer slightly better security and have security features.. but take note it so called "tricked" the card reader into thinking you swiped the physical card so of course you must still sign as per paying with card if the merchant requests for it, esp if the transaction is not a small amount. The reader dk you used samsung pay... Wait till samsung release their own payment device (eg phone reader) then you can truly pay without signing.. fancy calling people stupid and making a fuss just cos you have to sign.. smh

that's right especially at stores that do not adopt Paypass/Paywave you will still need to sign no matter what because as mentioned above the terminal treats the transaction as a swipe transaction. And CVV cannot anyhow key one, i tried once and payment failed. After that I switched cards and used a genuine CVV, payment went through
Also be warned not all credit terminals accept Samsung Pay, I've experienced "Unsupported Card" errors when attempting MST transactions at some locations. One of the cashiers explained that their terminal needs to be upgraded to support Samsung Pay's MST tech (not too sure why thou, maybe because of the emulation?)
To those who say it was detected as wireless, it's possible that the terminal is embedded with an NFC chip just that you don't know, thus your phone prioritises NFC over MST since NFC is present.
(based on personal experience at 18chefs)

hmmm i also wondering why sometimes need to sign, sometimes no need. few times at 711 n ntuc no need sign. remembered >$100 was asked to sign, so I thought less than $100 no need to sign. But that day $20+ also need to sign hahaha maybe I blur but this sungpay thingy is getting interesting

Not sure but i think if you use MST to pay, they may ask you to sign no matter what the amount.

Only if if you use NFC paywave/paypass then dun need. Just tap only can liao.

yeah well your original post u said that at the Samsung store you used an MST machine, and when they printed the receipt they wanted you to sign, then you ask why need sign cause is tap and pay. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

You just effectively contradicted yourself here. Tap & Pay is NFC, which is the technology behind Paywave/Paypass. That does not require a signature for transactions below $100. But what u said u used instead was MST, which in layman terms is basically the same as the action of swiping a credit card in the terminal. I believe you would be well aware that for swipe and chip transactions for credit/debit cards, the cashier WILL ask you to sign no matter the amount because they don't want to be liable for fraudulent transactions. Exceptions exist, but thats another story. So by and large, chip and swipe transactions, and therefore Samsung Pay MST transactions, will still need to be signed.

Now you say you used an MST machine but your receipt stated it was a contactless payment. Reason is simple: the card terminal us embedded with an NFC chip (which might not have been clearly stated on the terminal). Samsung Pay will always look for an NFC signal from a terminal first, and will only fall back on MST if it can't find an NFC signal. So, it simply means your transaction was processed through NFC and not MST as you claim. Even though the terminal may look like a standard no-NFC terminal, there might still be an NFC chip inside that was used to process your payment instead. Please don't go around putting people down even while they are trying to help you better understand how Samsung Pay and contactless transactions work.

EDIT: oh yeah and you say u received the notification from Samsung Pay? u get that regardless of whether your payment is processed by NFC or MST

Whatever the name is...whatever the method u use. By using samsung pay, the receipt will not show samsung pay. You will only see paywave...

I have been seeing a few posts on GTM Machines. Sorry if I am asking kuku questions, rarely take train now.

What is a GTM Machine? And which MRT station (other than CCK) have this? All including Circle Line, NEL, DTL, etc?

 

[lxLionHartxl]

nope, u need the 3 numbers attached on your card

^ Charlie_Zhan is right, minus the "using your brain (if applicable)" part.

When prompted with CVV, any 3-digits will suffice. So far, I have tried and no fails so far.

The **** samsung store pple kuku one. Use MST machine....tap already. Print out ask me sign. I ask him why need to sign...isnt it just tap n pay only. He reply still need to sign...maybe this samsung pay is more secured only....i look at him......haiz....another stupid pple who don know their job n technology

Sorry @TrueB1ue, but this was your initial post. And based on the answers everyone has given, its both 50-50. I understand that MST transaction will prompt a "signature" at certain merchants, but I do get other merchant that didn't require me to sign either. I think it might be the merchant/retailer option if they require a signature or not.

The signature we signed on the app: I have no clue what is that for either.

Why I say that? Because there are some outlets, SPC, Sheng Siong, NTUC, etc, that has a Sign Pad right? When we signed our singature, a digital copy (of it) will be printed on the receipt. So why can't the app send that digital signature we did, when adding (new) cards? I feel it would save us a lot of trouble from signing

GTM stands for General Ticketing Machine. it's the normal ezlink/flashpay top up machine in mrt/bus interchanges.
haven't used the paywave/paypass feature yet... will try to look out during my next top up. anyway as reported seems like it's not working even if using physical card.
anyone can confirm?

the signature in the app is merely a standard procedure for cashier to verify the signature against the charge slip. its like why physical card requires a signature. in reality, how many of the cashiers do so? close to none unless its a large purchase right?

some of the banks have existing agreements with the merchants, that if they use their own cards, no signature is required provided its below $100 purchase. Same as the contactless payment.

So in general, contactless payment does not require signature if the card is a locally issued one, while MST/slot-in cards require a signature for most of the purchases unless otherwise stated.

To answer a part of the question, someone asked how to know if you used MST or NFC for payment? well, don't look at whether you have signature or not. Look at the charge slip.

Charge slip reflects:
1) EMV Sale - MST payment and EMV chip slot in. magnetic swipe is disabled for all locally issued cards.
2) Contactless Sale - Passpass/Paywave/Amex
3) NETS is a standalone terminal, so it will show NETS purchase.

Hope this helps.
