I visited the U.S. Samsung website and downloaded manuals for both the Verizon and AT&T variants of the S7 Edge manuals.
They are different, and the Verizon manual has no content discussing Samsung Pay or how to use it, whereas the AT&T manual has an index entry for Samsung Pay which points to a page in the manual describing Samsung Pay and how to set up and use it.
Rather than try to upload copies of these manuals, I will provide direct links to them both on Samsung's website, so that you can examine them yourselves and not have to take my word for it.
I can't say for sure that the Verizon models will lack support for Samsung Pay upon activation, but the lack of references to it in the Verizon model's Samsung-hosted manual and the presence of it in AT&T's is very suggestive to me that this might be the case.
The two manuals, while having different content, share the same layout and typography, which leads me to believe they were a collaborative effort between Samsung and the carriers.
Based on the doubt this has raised in my mind, I will cancel my Verizon pre-order and wait to potentially purchase a Verizon-capable S7E when more information about model differences and activation methods between carriers is forthcoming.
