With Samsung Smart Switch, you can transfer your Samsung Wallet data from your old phone to your new phone. Please use the steps below to transfer your data.

1. First, make sure the Smart Switch app is installed on both phones, and plug them into their chargers. Both phones must have a charge of at least 20% to use Smart Switch.
2. When you're ready, place the phones within four inches of each other.
3. Next, navigate to and open the Smart Switch app on both phones, and allow the permissions if promoted. You can find Smart Switch by opening Settings, and then searching for and selecting Smart Switch.
   
   Note: Alternatively, you can navigate to the Samsung folder on the Apps screen, and open Smart Switch from there.
4. On the old phone, tap Send data, and choose your desired transfer method: Cable or Wireless.
   
5. On your new phone, tap Receive data, then tap Galaxy/Android, and then tap the desired transfer method you choose on the old phone: Cable or Wireless.
   
6. Tap Connect on the old phone, and then follow the on-screen instructions to connect the devices. This will differ depending on the transfer method chosen. Smart Switch will begin scanning the old phone for transferrable content.
7. After the scan, select the data you’d like to transfer to the new phone. To ensure Samsung Wallet is transferred, tap Everything. Be sure to select the additional items you would like to transfer as well. Then, tap Next on the new phone.
   
   Note: If you do not want to transfer everything, tap Custom.
8. An estimate of the transfer time will be displayed. If the transfer will take more than an hour, you may want to use a wireless transfer so both phones can be charged during the transfer.
9. When the transfer is finished, tap Done on the old phone. You can now use all of your old phone’s apps, including Samsung Wallet, on your new phone.
