Here I am thinking, why do people find it difficult to just take out their wallet and use actual card?
Unless you can add in your phone all of your cards, driving licence, and everything you have in your wallet (which would be completely dangerous and dumb thing to do anyway), I see no point in this.

Madhusudhan bro Are You from. INDIA? Thanks for Detail information
All I get is some new curve app crap , just wanna add my card as it was before
Google Play now flags Samsung Wallet as spyware & now urged users to uninstall it.
Silly question but I’ve just gone from iPhone to Samsung so I’m very new to all this. It says you have to use something called “Curve” what is Curve and does it cost to use it. Or is the Samsung wallet completely free, as I was setting up and it talks about Curve so bit confused and I’m not quite sure what it is. Can someone explain it for me please
Thanks for the explanation. I think I'll just use my credit card by itself. No smartphone needed.
Is it safe?? Can we trust the app?
Helpful video thanks.
