Apple Pay - Google Pay - Samsung Pay - Which NFC Payment will work???

​There is a lot of confusion about mobile payments with phones due to advertising and promotions.  You'll often see a store with a sticker that says "We take Apple Pay" or another one that says "Google Pay accepted here" and it causes you to think that if you don't have or use that specific mobile payment type, then you're out of luck. This just isn't the case. NFC Payments are NFC Payments. If a store takes them, then it takes all of them.  If a store doesn't take them, then you can't use them (unless, of course you have a Samsung Galaxy since those phones are also equipped with a magnetic transmitter to mimic an actual credit card stripe). At any store that takes Samsung Pay, you can also use Apple Pay or Google Play and the other way around. Stores get paid or get breaks sometimes to

promote one over the other just the same as many stores have signs that say "MasterCard Preferred" but they still take Visa or Discover or Amex.  So the next time you see a sign or terminal that seems to indicate a specific form of mobile payment, know that whatever mobile pay method you prefer, it can be used! All mobile payments use NFC to transmit a number to be charged in more or less the same fashion and any Mobile Payment Format can be used an any terminal equipped to handle NFC "Contactless" payments!
