Check out Samsung Wallet’s new features
With everything we carry in our pockets or bags these days, it’s easy to forget something at home, like your keys or credit cards. This won’t be an issue when you use the Samsung Wallet app on your Galaxy phone to store all of your important day-to-day assets, like your car and house keys. You can even store boarding passes so getting through the airport is a breeze. Samsung Wallet can also link up with cryptocurrency accounts, such as Coinbase and Gemini, so you can manage your digital currency.
Payments
Adding credit and debit cards to Samsung Wallet will let you easily make in-store purchases by scanning your phone! Samsung Wallet supports several types of credit card companies, such as American Express and MasterCard, as well as PayPal accounts and gift cards. You can also add a payment card to your Galaxy watch.
Samsung Pass
Samsung Wallet now includes Samsung Pass functionality. Samsung Pass lets you use biometric data, such as your fingerprints, to authenticate your identity when logging in to accounts, websites, and apps.
