My Samsung Pay is linked to my Maybank Visa Infinite where I earn 2X and 5X Treats Points for local and overseas transactions receptively. With Samsung Pay, I don’t need to bring my credit cards out. FYI, I don’t even need to have internet connection, i.e. Data Roaming, to use Samsung Pay (which is fantastic when I go overseas).
