Seeking to increase its presence in the contactless payment market, Samsung has constantly announced new partners compatible with the Samsung Pay virtual wallet, among which we can mention as of recent examples the plastics issued by BV, Sicredi, Itaú, and Trigg.
Continuing this expansion, the manufacturer announced today that Samsung Pay will also accept the connection to the cards of Carrefour Soluções Financeiras, the banking arm of the market of the same name.
According to Samsung, consumers will be able to benefit from the virtual wallet in all shops, apps, and stores that are eligible to receive contactless payment, which obviously includes Carrefour units across the country.
