In addition to credit cards, bank accounts and gift cards, Samsung Pay will start accepting PayPal for the payment method. Although, the update isn’t huge but great news for the PayPal customers, as they always want to get more possibilities to consume PayPal balance.
The new update would also help merchants who are used to of PayPal and Braintree, now they can add Samsung Pay as their option for checkout. The update will come soon and will be available for customers in UK and US first. Global expansion will follow with time.
PayPal has opened up to more consumer base that way, which is the reason why many believe that PayPal should include Venmo as the method for payment, so that customers can pay their cab and brunch shares apart from Venmo app. Currently, Venmo is in limited beta phase and accessible for selective merchants.
