Become a member

To become a Samsung Pay Partner, firstly you need to sign up to the Samsung Pay Portal and then register your membership.

Sign up/Sign in

To sign up as a Samsung Pay partner and request access to the Samsung Pay Developers site, do the following:

  1. In your browser, go to https://pay.samsung.com/developersers
  2. If you already have a Samsung Account, click LOG IN otherwise, click SIGN UP and create an account.
    A company business email address that won't change over time is recommended as the primary Samsung Account User ID for managing your portal projects.
  3. Agree to the site's terms and conditions and acknowledge that you understand the Samsung Pay Partners Privacy Policy, then click CREATE A SAMSUNG ACCOUNT.

Register your membership

While becoming a member of the Samsung Pay developer community, you need to provide some information about your company - contact information, type of business, size, etc. This information is entered into a company and user profile, which you can subsequently update as changes occur.

If you are the first one in your company to join Samsung Pay Developers, you will be the principal contact. As such, you will be given permissions to manage projects and invite others in your company to collaborate. If you are an invited co-worker, you'll need your company's Partner ID to register.

Follow these steps to register:

  1. If you are the first Samsung pay member of your company to register, select the first option "I am the first Samsung Pay member of my company". If you were given a Samsung Pay Partner ID by a co-worker, select the second option "My Company is already registered" and enter your company's Partner ID in the field provided.
  2. Click NEXT.
  3. Complete the company information form and agree to the terms and conditions of use, then click SAVE AND NEXT. If you cannot complete the profile at this time, click SKIP AND VERIFY LATER.
  4. Complete the user information form, then click DONE; or, if you cannot provide the information at this time, click SKIP AND VERIFY LATER.

Upon review of the information provided, your Samsung Pay relationship manager (RM) may request additional details. Once your membership registration is approved, you'll be granted access to currently restricted areas of the Samsung Pay Portal and you can invite members of your team to collaborate on your Samsung Pay projects. Until then, take advantage of valuable resources like the Samsung Pay SDK and SDK Programming Guide from the following link:

When you receive the email notifying you of membership approval, you're ready to get started. In your browser, return to the Samsung Pay Portal and SIGN IN

Set up your partner project

When you integrate your project with Samsung Pay, it is important to have a clear understanding of what is involved. For starters, consider the difference between apps and services.

App: An app can be your Issuer app or Merchant app.

Service: A service is a combination of your app, its service type, a CSR and a service ID. Your app will pass these information to Samsung Wallet for partnership verification.

You can create different service for the same package for multiple purpose testing. Note that,only one application can be added under one service ID. For example:

App deployment scenario Unique service-app combinations
Global issuer app using a different CSR (encryption key) for services in different regions to interact with local servers Service 1 = (com.issuer.walletapp, CSR1_US)

Service 2 = (com.issuer.walletapp, CSR2_PLCC_ABCMart)
Same issuer app for all customers but different CSRs for managing different card services (B2B vs PLCC) Service 1 = (com.issuer.walletapp, CSR1_Regular)

Service 2 = (com.issuer.walletapp, CSR2_PLCC_ABCMart)
Multiple merchant apps using the same PG Service 1 = (com.merchant.electronicsapp, CSR_PG1)

Service 2 = (com.merchant.groceryapp, CSR_PG1)
Global merchant app using a different PG for each country Service 1 = (com.merchant.electronicsapp, CSR_PG1)

Service 2 = (com.merchant.electronicsapp, CSR_PG2)
Multiple web sites using the same PG Service 1 = (electronicssite.merchant.com, CSR_PG1)

Service 2 = (grocerysite.merchant.com, CRS_PG1)
Global merchant web site using a different PG for each country Service 1 = (electronicsapp.merchant.com, CSR_PG1)

Service 2 = (electronicsapp.merchant.com, CSR_PG2)
