The long wait for Verizon to allow customers with select Samsung phones to use the company's mobile payments service is finally over. Owners of the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, Galaxy Note 5, and Galaxy S6 Edge+ can start using Samsung Pay right now.

Upon downloading a software update that is currently rolling out, the Samsung Pay app will be available to install from Google Play. Then you can start using your phone to pay for goods and services from your phone at more locations than any other mobile payments service.

It's time to celebrate!

The software update also includes security patches, likely fixing the recent Stagefright issues.
