In October, it was confirmed that while Verizon Wireless didn’t support Samsung Pay at launch, the Big Red carrier had every intention of supporting the mobile payments option.

Now, after a lengthy wait, owners of Samsung’s latest Galaxy-branded smartphones can install the app from the Google Play Store. It’s worth noting that there’s a small software update available from Verizon that you’ll need to install to get Samsung Pay working completely, but otherwise it’s just a download away at this point.

As far as support goes, the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 edge, Galaxy S6 edge+, and the Galaxy Note 5 are all supported for Samsung’s mobile payment option.

Any Verizon subscribers out there going to try out Samsung Pay?
