Hey guys. I am knew here at the community and wanted to ask you if guys know any tricks to make Samsung Pay work for me. I have Galaxy Note 10 and Watch Active and I would like to use it on both devices. The sing is I am with TSB which is not Supported by Samsung Pay and bank have confirmed that they have no plans to add the support. I was researching quite a bit and I found out that in America you can register Paypal account with Samsung Pay, why this isn't possible in UK? I was hoping that I can maybe use another online service like Revolut or Skrill but none of them is listed as Supported by Samsung Pay. I seen on the list of supported banks entities like Prepaid Financial Services, Perfect Card or Engage Account but I do not know how they work. I would prefer to have virtual debit card that I could link to Samsung Pay rather than opening another current account. Please guys, don't suggest changing banks this won't work for me as my partner works for TSB and she won't let me do that
So my questions are... Is there a service that will offer virtual debit card that I can link with the app and just prepay my balance before I use it? Do you guys know if Samsung has plans of adding Paypal, Revolut, Skrill or other service like that in UK? Is there any other trick I can use to take advantage of Samsung Pay?
I was even thinking to use VPN so phone would thinik I am in USA and then try linking the Paypal but I didn't do it because I wasn't sure if that's against T&C and found out that I would need to flash American Firmware which isn't possible because of Exynos/Snapdragon SoC's.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hmm... Unfortunately, we don't have any information on when or if PayPal is a feature our Samsung Pay Team are working on enabling. We do know, they are working hard to bring more banks to Samsung Pay every day!

Very interested in this potential solution - does the Curve card work with samsung pay then?
Means I can get the samsung galaxy watch with samsung pay rather than a generic wear os watch with google pay instead
thanks

Hi @Hikari ,
Any trouble of late? Did you have any trouble getting Samsung Pay onto your phone?
I have a Watch Active2 and the S20 and want to use the watch to pay. It'd be great if this works. I've applied for the Curve card. I'm only planning on adding my Revolut card at the moment.
