Does anyone know if Amex cards default to MSD Contactless in the US on smart apps?

Local grocery store opened less than a month ago, Verifone MX pinpads with four dots (1 green/3 white) on the screen with tap direction. Tap Amex physical card and it says EMV Contactless with AID and all on receipt, tap my Gear S3 for Samsung Pay on the card, it says Entry Method: Swiped. Could be one register was configured for EMV contactless and the other not but I doubt it. Also the Gear S3 has MST but the antenna was nowhere near the swipe reader.
