This addition aims to provide customers with a secure, fast, and convenient mobile payment experience, further elevating their journey towards hassle-free transactions.

e& money enables every resident in the UAE to obtain a card within 10 seconds by simply registering on the e& money application. Every customer is instantly issued a 16-digit Mastercard- branded e& money card, packed with a rewarding programme that currently offers a 1% cash reward on every card payment. With this launch, the card can be added to Samsung Wallet within seconds to enjoy contactless payments, both in-store and online.

The Samsung Wallet platform is protected by strong hardware and Samsung’s Knox-based security technology to safely store sensitive information in the device, including fingerprint recognition and encryption to make sure users’ important data are protected. It also replaces sensitive data with unique identification symbols, which offers an extra layer of protection against potential digital and physical hacking attempts. 

To activate Samsung Wallet, customers can download the Samsung Wallet App from the Galaxy Store, log in to their Samsung account directly from the Samsung Wallet App to set their PIN and fingerprint, then tap on ‘add card’ and scan or manually enter their card number. The card can also be added to Samsung Wallet directly from the e& money application.
