Samsung Pay is the most widely accepted mobile payment service, but it is ultimately up to the banks and card providers in a particular country to enable official support for their credit and debit cards so that they can work with Samsung Pay. This page lists the major banks and payment service providers that are on-board with Samsung Pay in the United Kingdom.

Note that in the UK, Samsung Pay may only work with NFC-enabled terminals with some banks and not via MST technology. To find out what MST and NFC mean, check out our dedicated Samsung Pay page, which also includes other information, such as supported devices and setup and usage instructions.

Banks that support Samsung Pay in the United Kingdom

  • American Express
  • The Co-operative Bank
  • Danske Bank
  • Engage
  • First Direct
  • HSBC
  • John Lewis Finance
  • M&S Bank
  • Nationwide Building Society
  • Santander
  • Starling Bank

Since Samsung is continuously working to bring more banks and partners on-board Samsung Pay, this list will be regularly updated, so keep checking back if your current bank or card provider doesn’t support Samsung Pay.
