Coinbase Expands Payment Options with Samsung Pay Integration

Coinbase users in the US and Canada can now purchase crypto assets using Samsung Pay, expanding payment options for digital asset transactions. Samsung Pay, with its reported 150 million users globally, joins Coinbase’s growing list of integrated payment methods. The platform already supports purchases through bank accounts, debit and credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.

Now, Samsung Pay becomes the latest addition, enabling select users in the US and Canada to buy digital assets like Bitcoin directly within the Coinbase app, without switching platforms or re-entering payment details. Coinbase emphasized that the road to global adoption depends on seamless and intuitive experiences. The company said the new feature would be rolled out to more geographies in the future.
