Think of Samsung Wallet as a digital version of your real wallet. You carry more than just credit cards in your wallet, right? You also have your ID, transit passes, keys, and so on. The same idea is behind Samsung Wallet.

All of your important digital forms of identification will be stored in one place for easier access. This is why Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass (and eventually Blockchain Wallet) are being brought together into the Samsung Wallet app. The different apps’ UI and controls will still be very similar; they’re just being moved to a new home.

In Samsung Wallet, you’ll be able to add and access payment cards, membership cards, gift cards, digital keys, health passes, digital assets, and boarding passes.

Samsung Wallet lets you add payment cards, membership cards, gift cards, digital keys, health passes, digital assets, and boarding passes. That way, you can access everything in one place on your phone instead of alternating between various apps or shuffling through your wallet.
