Samsung Pay has been used for more than 240 million transactions till date

Samsung Pay was a success pretty much when Samsung announced it, given it's the only payment service that works on both NFC and MST, making it compatible with pretty much any payment terminal that accepts debit and credit cards. Samsung Pay has gone live in quite a few markets since it was first unveiled, and Samsung has revealed at the Galaxy S8 event that Samsung Pay has been used for more than 240 million transactions so far.

That's a huge number, one that is bound to make Apple and Google jealous, as their payment services only work over NFC. Samsung Pay works great, and it's good to see consumers around the world have adopted the service so quickly. Are you one of those use their Samsung device for making payments?
