    Samsung Pay has done well so far in the launch markets – South Korea and the United States – and now the company has set its sights on the world. It has already confirmed that Samsung Pay will soon go live in China and it was only a few months ago that we exclusively revealed that Samsung Pay will go live in the United Kingdom and Spain in Q1 2016. A report out of Korea claims that Samsung is going to reveal global expansion plans for Samsung Pay at MWC 2016.

    Sources cited in the report state that Samsung is going to unveil these plans at its event on February 21. That's not the only announcement worth looking forward to because at that event the company is also going to unveil the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge. It's unclear right now which markets the company might target first in the global expansion other than the ones we already know about.
