In this period when technology giants continue to transform into financial giants, Samsung has announced its new service that will completely rival the Apple Wallet service. In its press release, the company announced Samsung Wallet, where Galaxy device users can store digital keys, IDs and much more.
The new Samsung Wallet service combines the company’s existing services, Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass. In this way, users will be able to store their assets such as digital keys and IDs on a single application, as well as store their passwords in the same application and make payments with the credit and debit cards they add. Samsung Wallet also included a surprise about crypto money.
Your crypto wallet will also be tracked from Wallet:
Samsung’s application, which brings many services under one roof, will also include the Samsung Blockchain application. In this way, users will be able to follow their crypto money portfolios live with a single application.
Samsung’s identity management service, Samsung Pass, will now offer digital key support for more vehicles with the new change. According to the shared bulletin, Samsung Pass support will also be available for Hyundai Palisade and ‘some’ BMW models released after July 2020.
The Wallet app will also bring support from nine different security companies to SmartThings. In addition, users will be able to store their boarding passes for plane trips using the Wallet application. This feature will only be available for Korean Air at this time.
Samsung Wallet service will be available on Galaxy phones starting today in the US, UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Of course, the operation of the above-mentioned features will also depend on the phone the users have. For example, the use of digital keys for vehicles will require UWB short-distance connection support on phones. It has not yet been announced when the service will be released for other countries.
