Switching between Google Pay (Google Wallet) and Samsung Pay+ (Samsung Wallet)

[SquirrelSpider]

Hi,

I'm using both Google Pay (Google Wallet) and Samsung Pay+ (Samsung Wallet) on my Samsung A55. Question is, when contactless paying with my phone in a store/shop, do I need to go into the phone's Settings / NFC and contactless payments / Contactless payments menu and change the default payment service to the one I want to pay with? E.g. let's say Google Pay is my default payment service, but in that particular store I want to pay with Samsung Pay+ - is there any way to pay with Samsung Pay+ in that instance despite Google Pay is the default, OR no, I have to set Samsung Pay+ as default payment before I do the payment?

Thank you

I would presume. You'd have to open one via the app.

Like for me I have set mine to open via double tap of power button.

So for you. Which ever one you want to use. Open it via the app.

Thanks. Well, when I'm on the lock screen, if I swipe from the very bottom of the screen then Samsung Pay+ comes in, asks for my fingerprint then says "Place the back of your phone against the NFC reader" while showing the Samsung Pay+ logo - even if Google Pay is the default. So I guess if I do the above and then make the contactless payment then my phone would use Samsung Pay+. But it's just my guess...

Yes.

So maybe map the Google pay to the power button double tap

Under settings search for side key and map that to the Google wallet.

So

1. For Samsung pay use your lock screen
And
2. Google wallet do the double tap. To open that.

Thank you, good idea!

Only thing Might be an issue is . If you have a transport card set up that will use your default pay wallet.

Thanks, I have the transport option disabled
