Samsung Wallet, in India, supports credit and debit cards from many financial institutions, allowing you to pay with those cards using your Samsung smartphone, eliminating the need to carry those cards physically. Well, the South Korean tech giant is now adding support for cards from even more banks to its digital wallet service in the country. Samsung has announced that Samsung Wallet now supports AU Small Finance Bank credit and debit cards for Tap & Pay transactions. With it, when you add an AU Small Finance Bank credit or debit card to Samsung Wallet, you can just tap your Samsung smartphone to an NFC-enabled POS terminal to make a payment using those cards. Last month, Samsung added four major features to Samsung Wallet: Samsung Wallet onboarding during new-device setup experiences, biometric authentication for UPI payments, usage of saved cards for online payments, and support for FOREX cards. Commenting on the achievement, Samsung India’s Senior Director of Services and Apps Business, Madhur Chaturvedi, said: “We are delighted to partner with AU Small Finance Bank to bring the convenience and security of Samsung Wallet to more users across India. With Mobile Tap & Pay, we are enabling AU Small Finance Bank customers to make seamless and secure payments directly from their Galaxy smartphones anytime, anywhere.” On the other hand, AU Small Finance Bank’s Executive Director and Deputy CEO, Uttam Tibrewal, said: “AU Small Finance Bank has always been at the forefront of digital innovations. The integration of AU Visa Credit Cards with Samsung Wallet is yet another step towards providing seamless digital payment experiences that will enhance the evolving lifestyle of our customers. This partnership underscores our commitment to building a future-ready banking ecosystem that is intuitive, mobile, and customer-first.”.
