Not everyone uses Samsung. And way more people use paypal than Samsung phones. And a father can send allowance to his child over payapal straight to his bank account.
But I get what youa re saying with NFC person to person payment. That would be cool.

Just like in the northern parts of Canada, near Alaska, where making a simple payment to a bank can be hard. Now imagine that in ALL or most of the country.

The point here is the massification. If they get innovative enough to do it simple and convenient, then is a success: Innovation is doing things in a different way, and getting a better result with it.
Sure, if PayPal can do that, I see no point on no using it. Me, instead of what you say, don't have an iPhone, nor am a Brand Zombie (For Apple, Nokia or any other company). If it works and fits my needs, I use it.

It would be a new revolutionary application of the mobile payment system. Most flagship phones already have fingerprint security system so now would be the perfect time for it. Samsung should get on it ASAP.

The point is the whole world could really use that MST tech. Samsung would be foolish not to capitalize on their monopoly in that specific area as soon as possible. Countries like Russia and Indonesia would also be a great market for them.

They'd capitalize on the MST technology as most developing nations only have the old swipe card readers.
If this comes to Canada I may be persuaded to get a Samsung and ditch my wallet for good! Yay!! :)

What about Samsung/apple adding support for a "virtual wallet" that could exchange Phone-to-Phone payments, maybe with an Authenticator SMS/Dongle/internet code/hash for the transaction? As person-to-person payment system.
