Samsung Electronics said at Galaxy Unpacked 2026 that Samsung Wallet will add support for stablecoins, combining payments, rewards, and digital assets into a single service. According to ChainCatcher, the company said this would make the device one of the first from a major smartphone brand to support stablecoins as a native feature.
Samsung Wallet has expanded beyond a payment tool into a digital hub for storing keys, IDs, and boarding passes. The event also introduced Samsung Galaxy Card, the first financial service based on Samsung Wallet, which Samsung said was launched in the U.S. in collaboration with Barclays and Visa. Samsung said its Knox security platform protects sensitive information with end-to-end encryption.
