To enable Samsung Pay on a compatible Galaxy phone, open Samsung Wallet, complete your Samsung Account and security setup, then add an eligible card or activate one already registered with Wallet. Samsung Wallet incorporates Samsung Pay features, but device support and card eligibility vary by region, model, carrier, firmware, and issuer.
Before you begin
- Check local device support: Samsung Wallet availability and features vary by country or region, phone model, carrier, and firmware. Check Samsung’s compatibility information for your location; a device list for one country is not a worldwide guarantee.
- Have a Samsung Account: Sign in to an existing account or create one during setup.
- Set up device security: Wallet may ask you to create a secure screen lock, set up biometrics if available, and create a Samsung Wallet PIN.
- Check your card: Some cards from participating banks may not be supported, and ATM-only cards cannot be added. Your issuer may require additional authentication.
- Connect to the internet: Wi-Fi or mobile data is required to add and verify a payment card.
Set up Samsung Pay on your Galaxy phone
- Check the app and phone software. Samsung Pay or Samsung Wallet may already be installed. If the app is missing, install available phone software updates and check local compatibility information.
- Open Samsung Wallet. Tap Continue and update the app if prompted. If it is not installed, Samsung says it can be downloaded through the Galaxy Store or Google Play Store. The app name may vary by device and market.
- Complete account setup. Sign in to your Samsung Account or create one. Allow required permissions and accept the Wallet terms when prompted.
- Set up security. Create a secure phone screen lock if asked, follow any biometric prompts, and create and confirm a Samsung Wallet PIN.
- Add or activate a card. For a new card, select Add card and follow the on-screen registration and issuer verification steps. Cards already registered with Samsung Pay or Wallet may appear in the payment-card area; follow the activation flow for this device and complete any issuer prompts.
Opening the app does not by itself make you ready to pay: you need an eligible card and may need to complete issuer authentication. If a card is rejected or you cannot complete verification, contact the card issuer.

Use Samsung Pay
After setup, use Samsung Pay at supported contactless locations and in supported apps or websites that offer the Samsung Pay option. Acceptance is not guaranteed at every merchant or for every card; issuer terms apply.
Common card issues
- Card cannot be added: Confirm that the card is eligible with your issuer. Some cards from participating banks may not be supported, and ATM-only cards cannot be added.
- Verification does not work: Make sure you have Wi-Fi or mobile data, then follow the issuer’s authentication instructions. Contact the issuer if verification remains unavailable.
- Replacing a card: Remove the old card entry from Wallet and add the replacement card. Contact the issuer separately about the physical card or account.
- Using a card on another device: Previously registered cards may need to be activated on each device. Complete the Wallet and issuer prompts.
FAQ
Is Samsung Pay the same as Samsung Wallet?
