Samsung has announced that it is in the process of launching its new Samsung Wallet in the UK, and the new service was launched in the US earlier this month.
Samsung Wallet will combine both Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass into one app and can be used for payments, to store loyalty cards, gift cards, and more.
“Samsung Wallet brings a new level of everyday convenience to mobile devices with a completely secure environment for storing passwords, payment cards, and more,” said Tig Dusange, European Director of Content and Services, ETO at Samsung Electronics. “As part of our continued commitment to an open ecosystem, we will continue to expand the capabilities of Samsung Wallet by working closely with our trusted partners and developers.”
Samsung Wallet is protected by a defense-grade security platform, Samsung Knox. The protection includes fingerprint recognition and encryption that helps protect sensitive user data, so that only the owner of the device can access their important information. Besides Samsung Knox, some key sensitive items in Samsung Wallet are stored in an isolated environment – the built-in secure item, which also helps protect against digital and physical hacking.
Galaxy users in five markets – France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK and US – can simply open Samsung Pay or Samsung Pass from their eligible Galaxy devices[3] Follow the update prompt and migrate to Samsung Wallet or visit the Galaxy Store to learn more.
