Unless something's changed, not out of the box. It's carrier blocked. When I had a Note 2 you had to do a bunch of s/w modifications to the Wallet app and change your build.prop to make it work. The Note 3 had a NFC chip with a secure token that didn't work with Wallet at all. Check the SGS5 forum as their experiences will probably be the same as ours assuming the NFC chip is the same. I've moved to Softcard and have been getting $50 a month back from Amex Serve since July, the offer's good until the end of the year.
Google Wallet's pretty much dead because the financial players won't share marketing data with them. A long discussion here...

Can you provide a link to that Softcard promotion?
Thanks!
I don't think they're blocking it anymore from AT&T. I can confirm my Note 3 absolutely did not work because of whatever secure element issue it had. But my AT&T branded LG G3 allows me to download and use Google Wallet. Although as much as I don't really care for the service, Softcard (ISIS) is giving away the farm on deals to get people to use their payment system.

It's automatic. All you need to do is get and connect an Amex Serve card to Softcard. Both Serve and Softcard are pretty cool and their apps very well done and refined. I'm known at my Walgreen's as the "please ring it separately" guy.

You get $1.00 off per transaction. Thee $2.00 items rung up separately end up being $3.00. Three $2.00 items rung together ends up being $5.00. $50.00 a month is almost two transactions a day which is a lot. Seperating stuff means I don't leave anything on the table.

I only do it "off peak." They actually think it's pretty cool and quite a few with NFC-equipped phone's got Serve cards to get in on the deal.
I work in a store with tap n pay. I use it now with wallet because software won't install on my rooted phone. Once my note 4 comes in, I might have to do this.
I am coming from the S5 and can confirm that Google Wallet works just fine since they have "changed" the way it works. Given that, I would almost guarantee that it will work with the Note 4 as well.

On my Note3, the wallet also works fine, however tap-to-pay is no where to be found. The app starts normal, i'm able to view my latest transactions, i'm able to pull up my balance, but tap-to-pay feature is no where.
Is this the same for the Note 4?

I was on DN3 on the Note 2 and tap n pay worked. Didn't have a note 3. On the Note 4 however I can say that on stock, wallet works. It's funny, isis/softcard is built in and pre loaded, so have to get wallet from the play store. But there is a slip of paper in the box advertising wallet. So they are both accessible and fully working on the N4.
After installing wallet you have to go into the NFC settings and change your authorized tap to pay app to wallet.

This is in INCREDIBLE! When I was with t-mobile (last year) I returned my Note3 to purchase a Nexus5, only because of Google Wallet tap-to-pay feature. I know, it sounds stupid, and hard headed. Now, since i'm with at&t, and got over my stupidity, I sold my nexus5 on swappa, purchased a Note3 on their Next plan (12 months), to enjoy my Note3 again.
Now, with the good news of Google Wallet tap-to-pay feature being available on the Note4, this is totally AWESOME!

It opens the app for your PIN when you set the phone on the terminal, you enter the PIN and place it back down, and it makes the sale. It initializes with NFC to know to accept the payment.
Slightly off topic, but did anyone receive a $10 credit after activating a Google Prepaid card on Google Wallet?
Imagine a credit/debit/giftcard that doesn't physically exist in your wallet but you can use it at certain stores to pay for things. That is what the big deal is.

For the last 2 days I've been stumbling across this "ISIS Mobile payment" platform. It looks to be getting a lot of attention and is supported by AT&T, T Mobile, and Verizon. According to a few sources it will be available for a few devices (including ours) next month.

http://androidcommunity.com/isis-mobile-payments-coming-in-september-20120828/
So my question is, why is ISIS getting the attention and props from the carriers over Google Wallet? Is it more secure? Is it financially supported by the carriers?
I'm confused...
the carriers want the money that such a service brings and are trying to screw Google

ISIS is a way for operators to get money out of NFC, that's why the operators are blocking Google Wallet from working. This is the same as Tethering.
The only thing starting next month is a test trial in Salt Lake City and Austin. Which, I believe, has been delayed from a previously announced July launch. I'm guessing a wider rollout will be sometime next year.

Interesting... Makes perfect sense.
I've been reading and saw few YouTube clips... And Iris system looks 10 times more difficult to purchase. (compared to google) the security is ten times greater due to constant changing of the back of plastic 3 digit security code. (whew!)
Google wallet is obviously less with security.
Since Iris is backed by the 3 major 4G and lte service. Many vendors and merchants will adapt this feature very soon. This payment system was long existed in South Korea (visited galaxy s2 days) and citizens use it like it's their wallet.
Not sure Americans would be able to adapt and execute the isis business model and availability of credit cards.

Just after I left Verizon, they were fined by the FCC for blocking tethering apps. It was part of their agreement when acquiring LTE spectrum that the customer would be free to use whatever software they wanted on their devices. I wonder if they are also blocking Google Wallet since this would also be in breach of their agreement.
As for ATT and T-Mobile, it would be nice to have support without resorting to workarounds.

Plenty of people have Google Wallet up and running on other carriers besides Sprint. Obviously it is a work around, but anyone that truly wants to use Google Wallet doesn't have to look very far or put much effort in getting it to work for their device regardless of carrier.

I live in Salt Lake, one of the test cities. I got the isis sim card from tmobile but isis wouldn't install on my s3. I retored my stock rom and it installed just fine. Then I installed my stock rom after rooting and got the following (see image below) when i installed and tried to run isis.
Bottom line, u root, no isis.
So far the only isis specific terminal I've seen here in salt lake is the light rail system. I tried google wallet on it and it said I paid but the transaction never went through. I'm hoping the pay termials will take either. I applaud that isis may make nfc more visible and acceptable to the general public but restrictions make it doa.
All that said, im back to liquid smooth....

Just want to share this. It's been tested out west. All phones will eventually be using one. App's like Isis and Google wallet will require it.

Any way they are over nighting me one at no charge. Local stores will be getting then. Most stores won't know what it is yet.

Some things from this information doesn't make sense. How could at&t confirmed something that the company doesn't support(google wallet)? Why would Google limit itself to require an additional secure element sim card? If this were in fact true would means most likely that all current non-sim based(cmda) android smartphones would say bye-bye to Google wallet. Im just guessing when I say maybe google now doesn't work on phones with root as does Isis.

It makes perfect sense...IMHO
Considering the fact that gwallet is recovering from a large number of security loopholes in their platform.
The "secure element" SIM card is a proven answer to secure card data on the device, and it can also be removed and placed into another device in minutes, and set up to work again if the user desires to trade for another compatible device, or if a warranty exchange is needed. But does require the user to provide the right passwords, and answers to security questions before any access to money can be performed.
My SE SIM works perfectly for ISIS here in Utah, and I'm sure it will roll out to other States very soon.
I for one am not happy about the SE SIM not working on a rooted device, but from a security standpoint, I'd rather have my accounts intact than worry about having the latest ROM out.
The balance between security and root will eventually be found, (albeit here on XDA) but for now, don't count on having a rooted phone, and expect to use ISIS or gwallet without the device being locked down. (happened to me last week, and ISIS knew about my root commands within minutes, causing me a whole day worth of unroot and hassle just to get my own money back.
ATT and Google have plenty to worry about when users entrust their personal finances into the care of corporations. And you can bet two things will take place. Restrictive and painful measures to control the security threats, and our paying for those measures.
This opinion is only mine....so please don't flame me for it, and enjoy your devices in any fashion you choose. I for one am greatful that my card # is safe behind that new SE wall, at least for today.
And dafoxs, MANY THANKS for all of your hard work on our behalf. It is much appreciated....g

Coming from the note 3 it was disabled. I was able to add a credit card on my note 4 and tap and pay is enabled and ready. Has anyone tried it on this phone? Im at work so I cant test it out, but it seems as if verizon lets you use either softcard or wallet now?

Thank for confirming this. Might actually start using it now!
So if you have Google wallet and your wallet account balance is at 0.00. I tap and pay using my linked debit card. Do I have to pay the 3.9% fee for that transaction?
Never mind. Went to a few places to try them out. Unless softcard has a promotion I'll be using Google wallet. Plus I get a better transaction history using Google wallet vs softcard and the amex serve card.
Just an fyi.
How is it live and it still won't take my chase card
Just tested non nfc transaction with an Amex card and it was awesome!
Open the Samsung Pay app, you would get an update. Yes it is live! Didn't try adding my Chase card though, it wasn't working in Beta!
Couldn't add my cards, guess ill wait to see which banks are supported.
Yeah it wouldnt take any of my cards either. If this only supports a few specific cards then it is going to be pretty pointless. Discover/capital one visa/centris bank. None of mine seem to be supported :/ Bummer, I was all excited when it popped up active on my phone this evening.
Here's a list of banks supported for now (Visa / Master / AmEx):-
- AmEx
- BOFA
- CITI
- USBank
- Synchrony
Source - http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/samsung-pay
Definitely a bummer as I can't add my Chase which i use on daily basis.
However, I could use my AmEx Corp. which I was unable to add in Beta! If they have come out with such a feature, I'm assuming they have plans to add more banks. The sooner the better!
Yeah none of my cards are supported, sucks I was looking forward to using this. Hope way more get supported otherwise if this is all its really not gunna go anywhere. Oh well I'm used to features not working for me or not being supported.

Also, if you register your phone for Samsung Pay, Samsung is having a promotion in which you get a free wireless charger (non fast I think. Could be wrong) or the wallet cover. Too bad Verizon users don't have Samsung Pay...sigh...

I had to use my Bofa card to use samsung pay and sign up for the free wireless charger.

I noticed the wireless charger they are giving away is not even available. It says pre-order only price is $49.99. Even when I Google it out of promo
Whats the difference between Samsung Pay and Android Pay? I've been using Android Pay for about 2 weeks and works great.
Wasn't installed on my Verizon version of the Edge + so I side loaded the APK and it says server is unavailable at this time.

With android pay you only can pay with nfc terminals and with Samsung pay you can pay without nfc if you want and use on a magnetic card reader. If you just place your device next to it.

You should have the Samsung Pay app on your phone, assuming you have the galaxy s6 edge+ or another compatible phone.

Android Pay didn't work for me, when I try to add the card google play services crashes. But the difference is that on Samsung pay you can use both nfc and the old terminals that you swipe your cards. They also say it is more secure than Android Pay.

Also have to register a card too...and with such a small support not many will take advantage of the offer I can't cause none of my cards are supported.

Luckily I had an AmEx which worked! They definitely need to add support for rest of the banks otherwise it would be a waste for such a nice feature!

Good to know. The other difference is that Android Pay replaces Google Wallet if you have loyalty and gift cards. In my case I have to keep Android Pay for that reason. but I've already used Samsung Pay about five times. Very easy. And I submitted my request for the free wireless charger.
Anyone know when they will support more than 4 banks?
