The Offer
No direct link (to get the promotion to show, open the app, click promotions, click better mortgage, click learn more)
- Samsung Pay is offering 12,500 points (now worth $50) when you complete a pre-approval qualification for ‘better mortgage’. This includes entering name, address, SSN, income etc.
The Fine Print
- Must be looking for a house in one of the following states to be eligible: az, ca, co, ct, dc, fl, ga, il, nj, nc, or, pa, tx, wa, you can select one of those states even if that isn’t where you currently live
Our Verdict
To get the 12,500 points you need to get to the stage of receiving the pre-qualification e-mail. As I said before there is no hard pull done and you get more points if you go further through the process. Should take about 5-30 minutes for the points to post to your account. I’d expect some a lot of calls regarding mortgages if you do this deal, but might be worth it for some people.
Hat tip to Slickdeals
Looks like the deal is dead now: after I click “learn more” button, it pulls out a web page, and at the bottom of the page it says “This offer is not currently available. Please check back later.” Although on the Samsung Pay Promotion page, it indicated the deal is good until Jun 25, 2018.
I couldn’t find it either, it’s not even listed on my phones now. I did it 10 times…they must have just gotten an influx of trash.
Posted immediately. Took 3 mins. Thx for free money. Looking forward to my convo with the loan consultants!
Anyone successful with all CRB frozen?
Easy $50. I got the points credited to my account as soon as I finished. Thank you!
they ask for SSN.
ty doc, easy $50*2
I just did the offer, used my Samsung pay email address and old address and old phone#, then promised to pay off all current high credit card debts and current mortgage due to show up on the soft pull, any way, pre-approved and got 12500 point, then redeemed for $50 Samsung reward card instantly. Btw, it’s easy to use the reward, I shop Walmart, pull out Samsung phone, tell cashier I pay $50 1st, then click the reward card and choose use as credit(instead debit) on Walmart screen, pay rest as normal if any. Thanks Doc for a easy $50. Hope it is soft pull.
Did Samsung get rid of $5 referral code? Can’t find it anywhere…
Just did this offer. Thanks DOC!
Tim I was wondering the same thing, as my youngest got a handme down S8, and has been earning Bixby points (under 18 so might no have been targeted in Spay email welcome).
In my search “IAMNEW” was the last active Generic (1/2018 reddit), But also saw “HEALTH” and one or two others unknown if active, I did see on u/tweettranscriberbot posting a personal referral code for S-Pay (but your still limited to $200 in referrals). I don’t have time to look for my TOS from last year when I signed up to see if it had a fixed offer period. Current referral promo does it runs 3/15/18 ~ 6/30/18 i’m not sure if it is just for the “new S-pay” users to be referred and to refer.

I’ll try to follow up have a new Samsung IMIE I can try.
IAMNEW still works. I just did it.
TatyG Did you get a personal Referral code to use after you used that one?
I used that code June 2017 with a new S8 and new to S-Pay, The referral code might be in the App or the e-mail you used to sign up for S-pay.
I found an email that had this text – I just can’t remember how I sent it to my inbox.
“New to #SamsungPay? http://smsng.us/payreferral Enter my code “123ABC” before your 1st purchase to get $5 in rewards” – Not actual code.
Thanks!
No, I didn’t. Checked my email but didn’t see any. Found the generic code REWARD in the app.
TatyG It might be under promotions submenu three dots top right – may see a promotion refer friends for $5…. or might show in the side scrolling Promotions at the top of the app – you might have a personal referral code listed there. Also have you added a debit or credit card (and confirmed with bank/banking app login) and/or used in store?
Thanks
The three dots have notices, promotions, enter promo code, settings and help. I searched the app but not a sign of the $5 referral code, although there is a place to enter someones referral code which means they still issue them. I added two credit cards but didn’t make any purchases yet.
can we do this offer multiple times on the same phone?
james I’m Not sure if it is tied to the SIM card (i.e. Phone Number) or the IMEI# (Phone). I do know that it is tied to the e-mail. I’ll try to update when I find out.
I add two new lines and have two new S9+ and a S3 Gear watch (S-Pay on non-Samsung phone- BTW on Sale @ Costco $239 (BT Version) S-pay was awesome before the recent devalue.
Thanks Doc! Used my old address & phone# since I didn’t want to get spammed and still got pre-approved. Got 12500 points instantly!
Also, you don’t have to verify your e-mail when Better Mortgage sends you the e-mail but you still get points.
Just use a fake phone # and get the points. No hassle.
