Magnetic Secure Transmission or MST, is a groundbreaking method of sending data using magnetic waves. MST replicates a card swipe by wirelessly transmitting magnetic waves from the supported Samsung device to a standard card reader. MST turns every card reader into a contactless payment receiver.

Near Field Communication or NFC is a method of wirelessly transmitting data using radio waves. Samsung Wallet uses NFC to wirelessly transmit payment data to payment terminals with NFC readers that have been activated for use.

For the average user there is no the differences between using NFC or MST. The technology, called MST is able to simulate the magnetic field, which is similar to a conventional credit card signal. Terminal thinks that you have held the card, rather than put the phone. The radius of action is similar to NFC - up to 7 centimeters.

For Samsung Wallet, either MST or NFC technology can be used to make secure, contactless transactions. The key difference is that approximately 90% of all merchants can accept MST, which makes Samsung Wallet the most accepted mobile payment service on the market.

In the context of Samsung Wallet, MST and NFC have the same level of security. The payment information transmitted by both MST and NFC is protected using tokenization.

A Secure Environment is a physically segregated chip in the phone which only allows access to highly sensitive operations/information such as fingerprint and payment information. Normal applications and malware have no access to the information in a Secure Environment.
