Samsung has expanded the availability of Samsung Pay to more people with the addition of new banks.
The two key new partners are PNC Bank and KeyBank, which each have large footprints around the country. Some of the other new Samsung Pay supporters include Associated Bank, Cambridge Savings Bank, TCF Bank, Amegy Bank National Association, and California Bank.
A wide selection of credit unions have signed up, too, including Central Florida Educators, Financial Center, Greater Kinston, Keypoint, Numerica, Utah Community, Achieva, Bayport, Bethpage, USC, and Navy Federal.
Consumers who hold cards from these issuers will be able to add them to Samsung Pay and use them to make retail payments. Samsung Pay is more widely available in stores than Apple Pay or Android Pay because it supports both NFC and MST technology.
Samsung Pay is available on the Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge+, and Note 5.
