A20s with no nfc

Kenny14 · ‎15-07-2021

My a20s doesn't have nfc , can I still use samsung pay or another remote payment option without the nfc option

@Kenny14: I'm not familiar with the A20s, as it is not a UK/EU device. If you head to Settings > Connections, can you see an option for NFC and contactless payments?

No unfortunately not, I have an a20e with nfc which is the reason we ordered my father in law one aswell, his came as an a20s , so we excepted it as an upgrade, but we have just ordered another a20e for my mother in law and she has nfc like mine, his being an a20s does not, shame as he has just bought an electric car and wanted his phone to connect to the charging point with the nfc to pay for the charge, but doesn't have the option.

I'm not sure if this will help.

How to activate NFC on Samsung Galaxy A20s. and How-to-activate-nfc-on-samsung-galaxy-a20s.

Check to see if your within any cooling off period to return the phone @Kenny14 to then choose a phone with NFC in.

Some mid range phone's don't have some features to keep the cist down as some people don't need or want the feature.

If your past the cooling off period then maybe sell the phone in order to accrue disposable income to buy another.

I wish you all the best with this.

I'm having the same problem with a Samsung A12 which is listed with it but its not on there

Where did you buy your phone from ? As I had the same problem and have managed to diagnose the fault.

I have the same issue with my a12, it says in the specs that it has NFC but cant find it anywhere. Anyone have a fix for this please?

qball8 · ‎03-10-2021

Hi, how did you find the fault on NFC not being on your phone and did you manage to fix it?

I have the A12 and the option isent in the setting and I can't use it even though the Samsung website and the Amazon link says it should have NFC, I wanted to use Google pay and it should work but there is no NFC option and Google says my device doesent support it
