TSYS Announces Support of Samsung Pay

Samsung Pay is safe, simple and works almost anywhere you can swipe
or tap your card

COLUMBUS, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–TSYS (NYSE: TSS) today announced its relationship with Samsung Pay,
which will offer TSYS clients — both issuing banks and acquirers — and
their merchants a simple and safe way to offer and accept mobile
payments using nearly any terminal where you can swipe or tap your card.

Combining Samsung’s pioneering Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST)
technology with Near Field Communication (NFC), Samsung Pay is
compatible with nearly all existing payment terminals where you can
swipe or tap your card, allowing merchants to quickly and easily accept
secure payments from customers using their Samsung phones.

“At a time when more consumers are looking for safe, simple and widely
accepted mobile payment solutions, we’re thrilled to join with Samsung
Pay to bring this groundbreaking technology to life,” said Craig Ludwig,
head of product for TSYS’ Merchant Services segment. “We look forward to
supporting our clients as they offer secure and convenient mobile
payment acceptance for their customers.”

Samsung Pay will be available on the Samsung Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 edge,
Galaxy S6 edge+ and Galaxy Note5 beginning September 28 in the United
States. Samsung Pay is currently available in Korea, and plans are
already underway for expansion in other countries.

“TSYS is a valued partner to help Samsung bring mobile payment from
every-once-in-a-while to almost anywhere,” said Injong Rhee, EVP of
Samsung Electronics, Global Head of Samsung Pay. “With Samsung Pay,
customers can shop like it’s yesterday and pay like it’s tomorrow. They
can use the only mobile payment option that works almost anywhere you
can swipe or tap your card today.”

To make a payment, consumers launch the Samsung Pay app, authorize their
purchase with a touch of a finger and hold the back of the Samsung
device to a card reader or NFC dongle. TSYS is committed to upholding
security and user data privacy to the highest industry standards.
Samsung Pay uses a digital tokenization instead of payment card
information for every transaction and consent for payment must be
authorized by fingerprint or pin.
