New Samsung Wallet Feature Offers More Flexible Payment Options

Samsung Electronics America today announced Installment payments will be available to Samsung Wallet users in select states ¹ beginning July 25 with expansion to all states planned by the end of 2025. Building on the recent rollout of Tap to Transfer,² the new feature offers greater flexibility and convenience when paying in-store with Samsung Wallet by allowing the customer to separate their purchase into smaller payments.

“Our phones go with us everywhere, so we’re making the Samsung Wallet experience as helpful as possible,” said Drew Blackard, Senior Vice President of Mobile Product Management at Samsung Electronics America. “As a comprehensive tool for all of your digital essentials, Wallet is all about flexibility and convenience, and with the addition of Installment payments, we’re making the payment experience even more versatile, providing users with options to make purchases on their own terms.”

Powered by a partnership with Splitit,³ there is no need to apply for a new account or undergo a credit check to use the new feature.⁴ When making a purchase using Samsung Wallet, simply tap the “Pay in installments” option that appears under any of your eligible credit cards.⁵

After completing the purchase in-store, select from four different installment plans⁶ to find an option that meets your budget and preferred timeline. After the transaction is complete, you can keep tabs on all payments directly in Samsung Wallet.

Samsung Wallet is just a swipe away on millions of Galaxy smartphones offering convenient access to your digital essentials — from IDs and memberships to digital keys, payment cards and more — directly on your mobile device.
