Samsung Wallet Offers Users Special Access to Coinbase One

Starting today, Samsung Electronics is expanding its partnership with Coinbase, the nation's leading cryptocurrency exchange, to bring user-friendly crypto access to Galaxy users in the U.S. The partnership, initially announced in July, allows Coinbase users in the U.S. to purchase crypto directly in-app with Samsung Pay - offering users more options for managing their investments and accessing money on Samsung's easy to use and secure platform.

Samsung Wallet users will also now have special access to a free 3-month subscription to Coinbase One, a premium membership experience offering zero trading fees on select assets, boosted staking rewards, and exclusive partner offers.[1] Additionally, Samsung Wallet users can receive a free $25 credit after placing their first trade on Coinbase.[2]

"Millions of Galaxy users rely on their smartphone to complete everyday tasks, and that goes far beyond communication - it's paying in-store, unlocking a car, showing an ID,[3] and more. Samsung Wallet enables each of these experiences and we're continuing to expand its functionality," said Drew Blackard, Senior Vice President of Mobile Product Management at Samsung Electronics America. "With our Coinbase partnership, Galaxy users have a simple and streamlined way to access crypto from a leader in the industry."

With this partnership and Coinbase's Samsung Pay integration now live for users in the U.S., Samsung Wallet becomes an even more convenient tool. In a single platform, Samsung Wallet users can view their crypto holdings, make mobile transactions, installment payments,[4] and peer-to-peer transfers,[5] as well as consolidate their digital essentials - including IDs, memberships, digital keys, and more.

"Together with Samsung, we're pairing their global scale with Coinbase's trusted platform to deliver the best value for people to access crypto - starting with more than 75 million of Galaxy users across the U.S., and soon around the world," said Shan Aggarwal, Chief Business Officer, Coinbase.
