How prevalent is Samsung Pay in Canada (specifically Vancouver)?

[ca12bon]

As the title suggests, I'm trying to find out how much Samsung Pay is used in everyday life. Here in Korea, we can use it to for everything, including payment of gas, convenience stores, restaurants, movie theatres, coffee, grocery shopping, etc... You get the picture.

I'm now curious if the same goes for Vancouver Canada, to which I'm planning to move to in order to finish my undergrad studies. If Spay is not used much, or if there aren't many terminals that accept it, I will most likely root my phone and install a custom rom.

Thanks in advance,
JC

Can't tell you about Vancouver, but every where in Montreal that accepted credit cards accepted Samsung pay/applepay/Google pay.

Samsung pay works everywhere you can swipe your card, regardless if it has apple pay or Google pay, doesn't matter where you live. The only place I can not use it is at gas stations pumps, because the card has to be inserted rather than slid. Samsung pay is awesome. I was using it the other day and the guy at the register was trying to tell me they don't support, I was like watch me. Lol. He couldn't believe it.
