Samsung Pay to work with Gear S3 and non-Samsung devices thanks to Gear Manager update

Samsung has already confirmed that it will be possible to use Samsung Pay on Gear S3 even when you pair it with a non-Samsung smartphone. In order for the mobile payment service to work, the device needs to be running Android 4.4+ or later software / firmware.
According to the Samsung Pay official Twitter account you can use the service with non-Samsung devices as of today. In order for this to work a new update for the Gear Manager app is being currently pushed out to different markets. It may take it a little while to reach you, so please be patient.
