No Samsung Pay app on A70

[Shveta]

Hello, I live in Hungary and bought my A70 in Hungary a few weeks ago. I was told in the store that it is made for the Hungarian market. However, Samsung Pay is neither available in Galaxy Store nor in Google Play. By the direct link I get the message "device not supported". Any advice? Thanks!

@Shveta: It may be the case that Samsung Pay isn't available in Hungary, and 'device not supported' is applicable to all Samsung devices in your region. I had a quick look at our A70 in the office, and I was able to download Samsung Pay UK, so it doesn't seem to be restricted by the model.

Yeah, I've just made some googling and I'm afraid that even if I move and create another Samsung/Google Play account in a country where it's supported I won't be able to use it with this device 😞 Thanks a lot for the response!

No problem, @Shveta. I hope you still enjoy your Galaxy A70. Why not see if Google Pay is available in your region, or if your bank has a dedicated NFC payment app (a lot of them do these days).
