Accept Samsung Pay in your store

Samsung Pay lets customers pay with the cards saved on their Samsung phone, without typing card details. It comes with Zid Payments: once Zid Payments is active, you turn the Samsung Pay networks on or off in Payments > Manage. There is no separate Samsung Pay setting in your store's checkout options.

Samsung Pay needs an active Zid Payments account, which is available to stores in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Turning networks on or off needs the staff permissions to view Zid Payments and manage its settings.

Turn on Samsung Pay

Activate Zid Payments if it isn't active yet. See Activate Zid Payments.
Go to Payments and select Manage at the top of the page.
On the Networks tab, switch on the Samsung Pay networks you want to accept. See Turn the Samsung Pay networks on or off.

Samsung Pay then appears to customers among the payment options at checkout.

What your customers see

At checkout, a customer with a supported Samsung phone chooses Samsung Pay and confirms the payment on their phone instead of entering card details.

Turn the Samsung Pay networks on or off

Samsung Pay comes as separate payment networks, and customers see only the ones that are on.

Country	Samsung Pay networks
Saudi Arabia	Samsung Pay Mada for mada cards and Samsung Pay Visa for Visa and Mastercard cards. You turn each on or off separately.
Kuwait	One Samsung Pay network.

Go to Payments and select Manage.
Open the Networks tab.
In All Networks, switch each Samsung Pay network on or off.

Each switch saves as soon as you change it. The switches are disabled while your Zid Payments account is suspended, disabled or dormant. Zid Payments settings covers the other tabs.

Samsung Pay fees

Samsung Pay has no fee of its own to set up. Each payment carries a Zid Payments fee that depends on your country and your Zid plan, excluding VAT:

Country	Samsung Pay fee
Saudi Arabia	According to the card used at checkout: a payment with Samsung Pay Mada carries your plan's mada fee, and a payment with Samsung Pay Visa carries your plan's Visa and Mastercard fee.
Kuwait	One flat fee for all cards: 2.85% on the Rise plan, 2.75% on the Growth plan and 2.65% on the Professional plan.

To see the current fees for every network on each plan, select About Zid payments on the Payments page or on the Networks tab, and look under Packages. Higher plans pay lower fees. Each transaction's fee also appears in its details in Transactions.
