The reward program also gives users a chance to win instant prizes which are update on monthly basis. People can track their rewards related activity in Samsung Pay app. The universal reward program is not dependent on participation by the merchants or payment network. Samsung gets to control the nature and availability of the reward program with it being the stakeholder that has the maximum to gain out from the system of rewards. This method of incentives will bring about a more faster adoption rate to Samsung Pay app.

Samsung Rewards launches this week in the U.S. for Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, S6 Edge+, Note 5, Gear S2 and Gear S3 devices that offer Samsung Pay.
