In order to give a further boost to its project, PayPal founder Peter Theil and Samsung heir Lee Jay-yong had recently has a meeting at the company’s own owned hotel in South Korea Seoul. It is said that the negotiations between the two parties have been quite fruitful and the hour-long meeting is said to have clicked for Samsung Pay: “Samsung’s Lee may have asked for business advice from Thiel, who is an expert in fintech. Expectations are high that Samsung will soon launch a new competitor to Apple Pay.”

The Samsung Pay is reportedly being incorporated in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S6 and the great thing is that at the start only it is supposed to work anywhere with the magnetic strip debit and credit card acceptance with over 10 million points worldwide.

The case for Apple Pay was that it required merchants o have their own dedicated POS terminals, which somewhat has been the reason for its low adoption but as Samsung might use the already established and widely accepted LoopPay system, the acceptance for its Samsung Pay is expected to be fast.

Apple Online Store extends support of PayPal in UK and US

It’s a good news for the Apple fans in US and UK as the company has arrived with a new payment option of PayPal on its Apple Online Store. PayPal is a world renowned money transfer website in different countries. This means that along with the option of paying through credit and debit cards, buyers can now even pay with PayPal. The icing on the cake is that new buyers can even opt for PayPal’s credit for up to 18 months of time period and that too absolutely interest free.

However, paying through PayPal is already an option for the Apple App Store and the iTunes store buy not its good to see this options getting extended even to the company’s Online Retail Store. However, for the moment this facility is only available in US and UK and we expect it to roll-out soon in other markets as well! This means that non US/UK residents can still buy from the Apple Online Store provided they are suitable with the shipping only in UK and US. We are sure that this new service would surely be helpful for all the Apple fans worldwide once Apple starts rolling it out on global basis.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 likely to host retina scanner

Before the launch of Samsung’s premium flagship Galaxy S5 this year, there were rumors about the device would come with a retina sensor. However, upon launch the device sported a fingerprint scanner for biometric security. Now the company on its SamsungExynos Twitter account has released a teaser that shows a phablet device focusing on an eye and if the above image is observed very carefully, at the right hand side, you will see a list of bills with a pay button. This could possibly mean a PayPal integration with retina scanner just as we have it with a fingerprint scanner in the Galaxy S5.

Security can be improved using features unique to us. That’s what we envision. What would you use? #ExynosTomorrow pic.twitter.com/KLgQ1q9GkP

Moreover, the tagline of the image is “Unlock the Future” which shows that the retina scanner could also be used for unlocking the device. Moreover, the Korean tech giant has also pioneered another of its eye-tracking-feature that prevents the screen from getting dim or locked when a user is still looking at the screen. Additionally the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is expected to host a 3.68MP primary camera according to AnTuTu, but it has to be seen that whether the company uses the same camera for secure retina scans or introduces a completely separate sensor for the job. Well, we would keep some patience till the IFA event to be held in Berlin this September when we expect the device to break covers.
