Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Watch 4 may not have Google Pay support just\u00a0yet, but you can still set up Samsung Pay on it and you don\u2019t need a Galaxy smartphone to use it. Which is a great feature to have if you like the watch but still want to make mobile payments without pulling out your phone. It\u2019s easy enough to set up Samsung Pay on your Galaxy Watch 4 so you can have the freedom to choose between paying with your phone or watch.
\nBut just in case you weren\u2019t exactly sure where to start, we\u2019ve set up this guide to walk you through the steps. First though, let\u2019s go over a few benefits of using Samsung Pay on your Galaxy Watch 4.
\nWhy set up Samsung Pay on your Galaxy Watch 4?
\nPaying for goods and services with the flick of a wrist
\nSetting up Samsung Pay on your Galaxy Watch 4 can be just as beneficial as setting up Google Pay on your phone. Primarily, the reason why you\u2019d want to do such a thing is so you can easily tap the watch to the payment station at checkout when shopping, and then pay for your products. All without having to pull your phone out of your pocket.
\nIt\u2019s certainly a little more convenient. And it\u2019s quicker since you can just slide your wrist over to the tap and pay reader. You do still have to set up a lock on the watch screen to use mobile payments. So you can sidestep that. But that just means more security for you in case you lose the watch and someone else gets a hold of it.
\nAccessing your loyalty and rewards cards
\nJust like the Samsung Pay app on Galaxy smartphones, you can use the Samsung Pay app on the Galaxy Watch 4 to access and use loyalty, rewards, and membership cards. Again, making it just a little quicker than having to pull out your phone to do the same thing.
\nStaying hands-free
\nLast but not least, using Samsung Pay on your Galaxy Watch 4, as opposed to on your Galaxy smartphone, or using Google Pay on your non-Galaxy smartphone, is that you can stay hands-free. Should you have other things in your hands when you\u2019re at the checkout trying to pay, you can more easily use the Galaxy Watch 4 with Samsung Pay for the payment then having to either put things down or swap to holding everything in one hand to reach into your pocket and grab your phone. Now that\u2019s a whole lot more convenient.
\nHow to set up Samsung Pay on your Galaxy Watch 4
\nFor starters, install the Samsung Pay app<\/p>\n

\u00a0
\nThe first and most obvious thing you need to do is download and install the app. You can do this from the Galaxy Wearable app on your smartphone. This works for non-Galaxy smartphones too.
\nOnce it\u2019s installed, you can move on to actually setting up the app to make payments.
\nUpdate the app if there\u2019s an update available<\/p>\n

You may or may not need to update the Samsung Pay app once it\u2019s installed. If you do see an update, tap update and let the process finish.
\nGo through the tutorial<\/p>\n

There will be a tutorial available that walks you through a few things if this is your first time using the app and setting things up. Complete this and move on.
\nSign into your Samsung Pay account, or set one up
\nBefore you can start getting things together and paying with your watch, you need to either sign in or set up a Samsung Pay account. You should be prompted to sign in when using the Samsung Pay plugin on your phone.
\nAfter you sign in, accept the terms of service and privacy notice to continue.
\nMake Samsung Pay the default app
\nYou\u2019ll also need to make Samsung Pay the default app for payments on the watch. This won\u2019t change the default payment on your smartphone, should you want to use a different default payment app there.
\nAdd a new card, or import cards<\/p>\n

If you already have cards in Samsung Pay, then it should automatically import your cards once the account sign-in process is over. If the cards are no longer valid, or if this is your first time using Samsung Pay, then add a new card(s) to the app and continue.
\nDuring this process, you\u2019ll be asked to complete the\u00a0add new card\u00a0process on your smartphone. You\u2019ll also have to verify yourself before the app will let you finish adding the card. Once done, you\u2019ll now be ready to pay with Samsung Pay using your Galaxy Watch 4.
\nHow to launch Samsung Pay on the Galaxy Watch 4
\nLaunching Samsung Pay on the Galaxy Watch 4 is simple and quick. All you have to do is hold down the back button on the watch for a second or two and it\u2019ll open up. You can then use the rotating dial to select a card that you want to use, and then the watch will prompt you to hold it up to an NFC payment reader. And that\u2019s it! You\u2019re all set to use Samsung Pay from your Galaxy Watch 4.
