Hey Samsung Members! 👋
Can you believe it is October already? I see the leaves changing and know that winter is around the corner. 🍁🍂
Anyway, I have some news to share. We just launched a new feature in Samsung Wallet! 💳
You can now setup a credit card as your transit card and tap you Galaxy device at a transit reader.
Even while the screen is off, the reader will detect the credit card you have designated as your transit card! 🚇🚌🚃
How simple is that? Travelling has become quicker for those commuters and transit riders! 😎🎉
Need help setting up your card?
Steps below:
- Open the Samsung Wallet app
- Click on the “All” tab and under the Transit Card section tap “+ select from payment cards”.
- You will then be prompted to a screen with a brief description of the “Transit Card” feature. Read and then click OK to continue.
- Select the credit card linked to your Samsung Wallet that you would like to use as your default transit card.
- Now you are all set! Remember, you can always review your transit transactions by going back to the Transit Card section and selecting you designated transit card.
- The credit card assigned as a Transit Card will only work at transit terminals. Like any other transaction, it will remain in pending status until confirmed.
Please note:
Only compatible with Visa, MasterCard and American Express credit cards from participating banks.
We are working to support Interac/Debit for future Samsung Wallet updates. 👐
Happy travelling Members! 🚇🚌🚃
Cheers,
From the Samsung Members team 🙂
