TL;DR
- Samsung has announced it’s partnering with Clear to bring digital passports to Samsung Wallet.
- Digital passports are accepted at some US airports for domestic flights, but can’t be used to travel internationally.
Samsung Wallet has announced a new feature that competitors Apple Wallet and Google Wallet have offered for some time. Starting today, you can add your US passport to Samsung’s digital wallet — though the digital passport feature comes with the same restrictions as on other platforms.
Samsung announced the change today in a blog post. The feature is being offered through a partnership with Clear, the private travel documentation company frequent fliers will know from their sales pitches aimed at folks waiting in TSA lines.
