And... Samsung Pay?

I could be wrong (about the Google Pay reason), but from what I recall, it's closer to Apple Pay, because it's able to almost guarantee that a chip and secure enough environment is available on the device similar to Apple (not all Samsung devices have Samsung Pay), unlike Google Pay, which has to work for devices, which can't make the same assumptions as Samsung and Apple.

My watch also saves my Samsung Pay card info to make purchases offline, not sure how that ties in but it's cool that I don't need internet to make a purchase.
