Samsung Wallet
Samsung Wallet (Korean: 삼성 월렛, or simply Wallet) is a digital wallet platform developed by Samsung. It is available for the Samsung Galaxy-exclusive One UI operating system, and was announced on February 9, 2022, at the February 2022 Galaxy Unpacked event. It combines both Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass.
The Samsung Wallet brand name was first used for the company's mobile wallet system of the same name, which was introduced in 2013 before being migrated into a new app called Samsung Pay in 2015. Samsung Wallet now contains the Samsung Pay service for payment cards, alongside other features such as cryptocurrency assets and digital credentials.
Samsung Wallet allows users to store items such as payment cards, loyalty cards, boarding passes, digital keys, and vaccination cards. It replaces the old Samsung Pay app on Android-powered Galaxy devices and is currently available in Australia, Bahrain, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Kazakhstan, Korea, Kuwait, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Vietnam, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom. and the United States.
Samsung Wallet also supports a variety of transit cards, such as T-money and cashbee in South Korea, as well as Octopus in Hong Kong. However, due to the region-specific nature of Samsung Wallet, users from other regions are not able to utilize these transit cards from their own devices.
As of 2024, car keys, transit cards, campus IDs, and company IDs are supported types of cards that can be used with Fast Mode. However, Samsung limits some passes if they are the same type or from the same issuer from being used with Fast Mode. For example, a user can only have one campus ID and one car key each set to Fast Mode. This can be mitigated in a sense by using a Galaxy Watch to split the Fast Mode passes between multiple devices. Payment cards can also be used without prior authentication on select transit systems, though that mode is called "Tap & Pay."
Fast Mode cards can be used up to five hours via power reserve after the device has powered off due to a drained battery. The ability to retain usage after battery depletion is not available for any Galaxy Watch model.
Samsung Wallet has a passes feature, which exists in a larger ecosystem. Passes are presented in the Menu tab of the app, or can be added to the Quick Access tab. Developers must first be granted access as a Samsung Wallet Partner to the Samsung Wallet Cards API before they can author such items.
An interaction (or transaction) between a pass and a system is facilitated by a 1D or 2D code, although it requires the customer to initiate the activity. Passes can also contain nothing but plain text or an image.
