Samsung Pay Shops

Anyone do one yet? I'm trying to decide if I wanna accept one but it asks for a photo of the digital signage on the payment terminal but you're not supposed to buy something. It seems like an impossible assignment.

Please don't feed the MSF trolls!

Feeding the MSF trolls bread or other human food is detrimental to their health and the environment. It can lead to malnutrition, disease, and behavioral problems in trolls, as well as water pollution and the spread of pests. Trolls are capable of finding their own food sources and don't require human assistance.

I have not even seen a shop as you are describing.

There's one at my local Carvel and I believe they have the signs on the door. Otherwise, it could be very awkward without making a purchase. I might have a hankering for a sundae soon, in which case, I'd try it if it's still there.

I tried one and it was already rejected. LOL They asked for a picture of the exterior. Did it. They wanted a picture of signage on the door. Did it. And they asked for a picture of the screen on the payment terminal. My shop was a grocery store, so I walked over to an empty checkstand, snapped a photo of the screen, and submitted the report. Nope. It took them ten minutes to reject it. They said the photo of the payment terminal screen did not show which cards the store accepted, and I should have taken multiple photos of the screen to ensure I phoographed the correct screen. I don't know how someone is supposed to take multiple photos of multiple screens on a payment terminal when the shop specifically tells you not to purchase anything. I've seen some bizarre guidelines over the year but this one takes the cake.

I see them on Presto. I see so many of these, but none of the gas station sticker removal. So weird.

Maybe I'm not looking in the right place for the sticker ones.

I coupled one of these shops with another that required a purchase. It got approved. I took a picture of the front window and the credit card terminal. In my case, there was payment method signage at the front and on the credit card terminal.

If you're making a payment with your phone, you may find it easier to take a picture of the credit card terminal. There's a question and photo requirement about the "digital" signage or backdrop on the screen of the credit card terminal, as well, if applicable.
