Sign up for Samsung Pay, get a free wireless charger

Samsung Pay press

If you’re the proud owner of a Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge Plus, or a Note 5, then you have the chance to snag a free wireless charging pad from Samsung!

From October 28 to November 8, Samsung is running a promotion to boost the membership of their Samsung Pay service. Owners of the aforementioned devices who sign up for Samsung Pay during this brief window will get a wireless charger mailed to them, no strings attached. You should note that the deal may run out sooner than November 8, as Samsung is limiting the offer to only the first 200,000 participants.

Samsung Pay is the company’s digital payment medium that is accepted practically anywhere you would use a credit card. The service is easy to use, and Samsung boasts that Pay uses several layers of security to keep your information private. They also claim not to store or share payment data.

This isn’t the first time Samsung has offered free stuff for signing up with Pay. The service only came out in September, and already we’re on Round Two of the promotional giveaways. Samsung must want new users on Samsung Pay pretty badly.

There are a handful of usual caveats to the deal. You have to be eighteen or older and live in the US (territories don’t count). You also can’t double-up on hardware if you already got a charger from Samsung during their last promotional deal.

If this sounds like something you want to jump on, head over to the promotional page and enter your email address to register. The site warns that your charger may take eight to ten weeks to arrive. Are you going to spring for this deal? Why or why not? What are your thoughts on Samsung Pay? Let us know in the comments.

The USB Type-C take over has already started, and as this year comes to an end, we expect to see a few more smartphones and tablets hit the market bundling compatibility for the third-generation connection. As it stands, handsets that currently feature Type-C ports only ship with a single cable and that annoyingly doesn’t support computer connectivity, so if users want to transfer files to their devices, they have to purchase an additional wire or adapter. However, these accessories aren’t cheap, so customers veer towards the more affordable, third-party cables readily available on marketplaces, such as Amazon and eBay, but that’s not a good thing. Many consumers have reported that these chargers have caused harm to their handsets, so Google Engineer Benson Leung has taken it upon himself to purchase a selection of Type-C connectors from Amazon to test and see if they meet the standard specifications for use on his Nexus device. So far, Leung has been through seven cables and clai...
