Samsung has partnered with DZ Bank, which represents the Cooperative Financial Group (GFG) in Germany, to bring Samsung Wallet compatibility to millions of Galaxy phone and watch users.
Through this partnership, credit and debit cards issued by over 600 cooperative banks in Germany—including DZ BANK, PSD Banks, Sparda-Banken, and Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken—can be added to the Samsung Wallet app on Galaxy phones and Galaxy Watches. Users can then make contactless mobile payments with these devices wherever contactless cards are accepted.
This expansion ensures that millions more Galaxy users can easily make mobile payments.
To celebrate the collaboration, Samsung is running a promotional offer. Customers who add their eligible bank cards to Samsung Wallet and register online by December 31, 2026, can enter a prize draw to win one of four €2,500 vouchers for the Samsung online shop.
In addition to credit and debit cards, Samsung Wallet can store boarding passes, digital keys for homes and vehicles, gift cards, passwords, passkeys, loyalty cards, and more.
