Samsung has partnered with Australia-based payment system provider eftpos to allow contactless transactions through Samsung Pay.
Samsung Pay users can now choose between payments via eftpos or the Visa network by toggling a setting in their user interface.
The payments capabilities provided by eftpos are linked to all debit cards in Australia, enabling real-time transactions and cash withdraws from selected merchants via Samsung Pay.
In addition to the ability to make payments with a Samsung smartphone, users will also be able to track their bank balance in real time.
