How secure is Samsung Pay?

When you add a bank card to Samsung Pay, a device specific digital card number that is completely different to your actual card number is generated by Visa or Mastercard through tokenization that represents your physical card. The digital card is stored in a Secure Environment using Samsung Knox technology to protect your payment information. Your physical card details are not stored by Samsung Pay. This means that every time you make a Samsung Pay transaction your physical card information is never used which makes it more secure than transactions with your plastic card.
The Samsung Pay app verifies your identity with your Iris, Fingerprint or 4 digit Samsung Pay specific PIN, to ensure each payment is authorised by you.
