Coinbase integrates Samsung Pay to simplify crypto purchases in the U.S. and Canada, boosting mobile access and mainstream adoption.
Coinbase has announced a major partnership with Samsung Pay to make buying cryptocurrency easier for users in the United States and Canada. The new integration enables users to replenish their Coinbase accounts and buy digital assets directly via Samsung Trusted Mobile Wallet.
Samsung Pay Now Live in Coinbase App for U.S. and Canada
Beginning this week, Samsung Pay will be available to eligible Coinbase users in North America without leaving the Coinbase app. The transactions can be made with only a few taps, and there is no need to alternate between the applications or fill in the payment details manually. This is one of the moves made by Coinbase towards facilitating the accessibility, security, and usability of crypto.
Notably, not all of the users will have the ability to access the feature immediately. Rather, it will be launched progressively in the upcoming month to a small number of users. Everybody in the U.S. and Canada will have access soon. Such a phased system makes the process smooth and efficient for all users.

The integration is a testament to how Coinbase is investing in a better crypto experience when it comes to mobile-first consumers. With the increase in the popularity of mobile wallets, it is important to provide such convenience. Samsung Pay is already a very popular payment option, so by integrating it with Coinbase, a broader audience of users who might have felt trepidation about crypto because of the difficulty of the payment process can be opened up.
This collaboration is considered by Samsung as a significant progress in its mobile services. According to Drew Blackard, Senior Vice President at Samsung Electronics America, collaboration with such market leaders as Coinbase supports the user experience. He stressed that these partnerships are in line with the general objectives of Samsung. One of the priorities is the expansion of the capabilities of Samsung Wallet through constant innovation.
Samsung Pay Boosts Crypto Accessibility
This is not Coinbase’s first mobile wallet partnership. In the past, the exchange incorporated Google Pay and the Coinbase Card and then direct crypto purchase using Google Pay. In late 2024, Coinbase introduced support for Apple Pay, giving users a secure and convenient way to purchase cryptocurrency. Building on that progress, the platform has now added Samsung Pay to its list of supported payment options. As a result, Coinbase has expanded its mobile payment capabilities significantly. These additions reflect the company’s broader strategy to make crypto purchases more accessible to a diverse user base.
In addition, such integration is happening when the entire crypto market across the world is seeking to replenish and expand once again. Coinbase is facilitating the gap between traditional and digital finance by simply making it more convenient to invest. It also conveys a powerful signal that crypto is entering mainstream financial life.
To sum it all up, the Coinbase-Samsung Pay partnership is a step in the right direction to mass crypto-adoption. It is a hybrid of mobile payment security and ease with the user-friendly platform of Coinbase. This new feature enables users to experience the benefits of crypto in a more convenient and accessible way, whether they are just starting to use it or are already active traders—right at their fingertips.
