Every time you make a purchase with Samsung Pay, you earn rewards points.\u00b9<\/p>\n<p>Samsung Rewards also allows you to \u201cdouble dip\u201d on rewards points \u2013 that is, with every credit card purchase made via Samsung Pay, you may be able to earn points, miles or cash back from your card\u2019s issuer, <em>as well as <\/em>points toward Samsung Rewards.\u00b2<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, debit cards don\u2019t usually have any sort of points system. But thanks to Samsung Rewards, you can now earn rewards points when you use your debit card.<\/p>\n<p>And the more you use Samsung Pay, the more points you earn. Samsung Rewards has loyalty tiers with point multipliers \u2013 you can earn double, triple, or even quadruple points, depending on how often you use the service each month.<\/p>\n<p>You can get even more points through limited-time bonus offers. Samsung Rewards will partner with retailers and small businesses and give users seasonal opportunities to earn additional points \u2013 anyone who joins Samsung Rewards in November or December, for example, will receive double points on purchases made in those months.<\/p>\n<p>Users can then redeem their points for Samsung products, vouchers for Samsung.com, Samsung Rewards Visa Prepaid Card value, and gifts cards to some of the country\u2019s leading retailers. Users can also be eligible for additional prize giveaways \u2013 called \u201cInstant Wins\u201d \u2013 that include things like trips to Napa Valley and Las Vegas that surprise and delight.\u00b3<\/p>\n<p>For Samsung Rewards, this is just the beginning, when the program launches this week. In the coming months, Samsung Rewards will rapidly expand to include a wide variety of Samsung\u2019s products and services, like Samsung.com and S Health, exclusive events and experiences and our partner programs.<\/p>\n<p>We are always looking for ways to offer Samsung customers more value, to enhance their experience with our products and services, and, ultimately, make their day-to-day lives a little more convenient.
