LG Pay is shutting down later this year

Following LG Mobile's shutdown on July 31st, owners of the company's smartphones have another calendar date to make a note of.

From November 1st, LG's widely unused contactless payments system is also shutting down, according to emails currently being sent to customers.

LG Pay debuted in the US with the G8 ThinQ, though it never reached the sort of widespread use that Samsung (or even Google) enjoyed.
