I didn't see this posted anywhere, so I thought I would give everyone a heads up. Samsung is giving away your choice of a wireless charger or flip case when you activate and add a new card using Samsung Pay. It says the offer is only valid until supplies run out, which I imagine they will fairly soon. Considering the wireless charge cost $50, this is a pretty nice little offer. So, even if you don't plan on using Samsung Pay, you might as well activate to get your free gear.
Offer is good through 10/11/15: http://www.samsung.com/us/samsung-pay/activation/terms-and-conditions/
Just tried but it doesn't support Regions, Bank of America, or capital one yet
It don't support any of my debit cards or credit cards smh haha
Same here. None of my bank or credit cards are supported. Great start Samsung.

According to Samsung's help article, Bank of America, US Bank, Citi, and Private Label Company should work. You'd think Wells Fargo would, but they've got Apple Pay shoved so far up their keesters I doubt it'll ever be supported.
I got one card from BOA out of my other 5 cards I can't get my debit card going they don't support my credit union yet.

Did you check the "Announcements" dropdown and try redeeming from there? At first it said my device was no supported so I had to close the program and try again. It worked the second time.

Yeah they keep giving a generic response to any forum questions too. I find it in fair for those who can't add a card and take advantage of the promotion by the end date.
LG was giving away a battery and cradle last year for the G3. They did it like a month after release but still gave the purchasers before it the promotion.
I'd use my travel card but I had to reapply due to it being mailed to an old address and my account got cancelled lol

How do you claim your rewards and perks?
The applications are not even preinstalled, zinio , boingo, etc.
There is not a single page or info when you activate the tablet. I have registered the tablet and haven't gotten my samsung or google play credits.
Please help?
Think someone else on here said the perks don't go live until the official release date.
I found Samsung's page about the bonus stuff, but it's pretty lacking:

Yes today is, but when he posted it wasn't. I'm still having trouble claiming my stuff. The directions said to register your device with their website and then there would be a confirmation e-mail with a promo code inside. I got an e-mail, but there was no promo code.
EDIT:
Just spoke with a samsung rep and they said all the perks haven't been released yet and he couldn't give me details on when it would be released.
I just got an email from Samsung announcing that the new Note 10.1 is here, hopefully that is another good sign for the perks sign up going live soon.

Balls, man! I just spent $70 on a spare battery + charger because I needed them for a vacation trip. And I bought my G3 at the end of August, so I don't qualify for this promo anyway. Oh well - still wouldn't want to wait 6 weeks for the battery + charger to arrive so I'm not too bummed out.
It's indeed a bummer for those who bought G3 before.
LG should honor those who bought from the carrier even back to the day it's released.

They're not invention new ways and it isn't only carriers. Any product you buy at launch does this. Later down the road, there are always better deals and bundles. You choose to frick yourself by being an early adopter so don't blame a business for your choice.
This isn't in any means a new practice. Don't act so surprised. Just be happy with the product you bought. If you aren't happy, sell it.

As stated before this is an LG promotion. For people who purchased the phone before the date of 9/8/14 you can email LG and see if they will extend it to you. This is what I did and they ask you fill out an excel spread sheet and respond a certain way. I found out it was working for others by using the googles.

Actually yes.
Other than die hard samsung fans they will be hard pressed to get the general public to trust them after this.
Sure the recall and replacement will cost a fortune but its loss in reputation,trust and thus massive future lost sales which will really cost them in the long run.
They will need to do something to entice consumers to purchase their devices...and that is usually done in free offers.
