Samsung Electronics said on October 22 that Samsung Wallet Money and Points had surpassed 3 million subscribers one year after its launch in October 2025, following its reaching 1 million subscribers just two months after launch.


Samsung Wallet Money and Points is an integrated service that lets users add money to their accounts, make payments, and earn points. Key factors behind its growth include the ability to earn points without requirements for spending in the previous month or limits on point accrual, and to use the points like cash at all participating merchants in South Korea.


To mark the service's first anniversary, Samsung Electronics has been rolling out new features since October 20, including a points tier system and support for overseas payments. The tier system has four levels—Solar, Luna, Sky, and Young—based on the total points accumulated annually. Fourteen mini-games will also be added to the Benefits tab in Samsung Wallet.



Chae Woncheol, Vice President and Head of the Digital Wallet Team in Samsung Electronics' MX Business, said, "Samsung Wallet aims to add tangible value to customers' daily lives. We will continue to expand the Samsung Wallet ecosystem across diverse everyday touchpoints in South Korea and abroad, and strengthen the benefits customers can experience in their daily lives."
