Samsung Pay

Accepted virtually anywhere, Samsung Pay lets you carry your Visa Debit Card, Visa Credit Card and loyalty cards on your Samsung smart device.

Designed to be secure

Your payment information is protected using several layers of security and it is not stored on your device or shared with retailers. When you pay every transaction is authenticated by your fingerprint, Iris scanner* or device passcode.

Simple to use

With a simple and intuitive user interface, payments can be made in a matter of seconds. Activate Samsung Pay with an upwards swipe to select your Credit Union SA Visa Debit Card or Visa Credit Card before authorising payment.

More than just payments

Slim down your wallet by adding your favourite loyalty cards to Samsung Pay to quickly access them whenever, wherever†.

With in-built barcode scanning technology, Mobeam, your loyalty card barcodes can be successfully scanned at retailers.

Getting started is simple

Get started today in four simple steps:

  1. Open the Samsung Pay app and sign in with your Samsung ID.
  2. Register your fingerprint and device passcode which you’ll use to authorise payments. Members with a Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+ can also scan their irises for iris authentication.
  3. Scan or enter your Credit Union SA Visa Debit Card or Visa Credit Card details.
  4. Verify your card details and enter the verification code.
