Samsung Wallet Offers 3-Month Free Coinbase One Access for US Users

Samsung has partnered with Coinbase to give Samsung Wallet users in the United States a free 3-month trial of the premium Coinbase One membership. During the trial, eligible users can trade crypto on Coinbase with $0 trading fees (spreads still apply), get priority 24/7 customer support, and access additional account and partner benefits. After three months, the plan auto-renews at the standard monthly price (commonly $29.99 in the US, subject to change) unless canceled.

What is Coinbase One

Coinbase One is Coinbase’s premium subscription designed for frequent traders and power users. Key benefits include:

• $0 trading fees on eligible spot trades up to a monthly cap (spreads and exclusions may apply).
• Priority 24/7 customer support with faster response times.
• Access to select partner perks and promos.
• Enhanced account features such as higher account limits and streamlined tax tools in supported regions.
• Staking and rewards features where legally available.

Who’s eligible

• US-based Samsung Wallet users aged 18+.
• Users with a Samsung account set to the US region.
• New Coinbase One subscribers only (existing or previous Coinbase One subscribers typically aren’t eligible for the free trial).
• A verified Coinbase account is required, including identity verification (KYC) and compliance checks.
• One trial per person/account; non-transferable; limited-time availability.

If you are outside the US, this promo does not apply. Availability and terms may vary by region and can change.

How to redeem in Samsung Wallet

1. Update Samsung Wallet: Ensure you have the latest version on your Galaxy device and that your device region is set to the US.
2. Open Wallet: Launch Samsung Wallet and sign in with your Samsung account.
3. Go to Benefits/Promotions: Look for the Coinbase One 3-month trial card in the Benefits or Promotions section.
4. Claim the offer: Tap the offer and follow the on-screen steps to generate or retrieve your promo.
5. Install or open Coinbase: Download Coinbase from your app store if you don’t have it, then sign in or create a new account.
6. Verify identity: Complete KYC within Coinbase (government ID, selfie, and any additional compliance prompts).
7. Apply the trial: Follow the in-app flow to activate the Coinbase One trial. If a promo code is provided in Samsung Wallet, enter it where prompted.
8. Confirm activation: Check your Coinbase profile/subscriptions to confirm “Coinbase One” is active with a 3-month trial period.
9. Set a reminder: If you don’t plan to continue, set a calendar reminder to cancel before the trial ends to avoid charges.

Perks you get for three months

• $0 trading fees on eligible trades within monthly caps.
• Priority 24/7 support to resolve account issues faster.
• Access to partner offers and member-only promos.
• Convenience of managing crypto via Coinbase with quick access from your Galaxy device.

Limits and fine print

• Auto-renewal: After three months, the subscription renews at the standard monthly rate unless you cancel beforehand.
• Trading caps and exclusions: $0 fee trading may have monthly volume limits and may exclude certain assets, order types, or advanced features; spreads still apply.
• Compliance: You must pass identity and account checks. Coinbase may deny the offer if compliance requirements aren’t met.
• One-time use: Offer is typically restricted to first-time Coinbase One subscribers; you can’t stack multiple trials.
• Timing: The promo is available for a limited time and can end early or change without notice.
• Not financial advice: Crypto assets are volatile and risky; only invest what you can afford to lose. Taxes may apply to gains or rewards.

Why this partnership matters

• Frictionless onboarding: Samsung Wallet’s built-in promo flow lowers the barrier for Galaxy users curious about premium crypto trading.
• Cost savings for active traders: $0 trading fees (within limits) can materially reduce costs for users making frequent spot trades during the trial.
• Ecosystem play: Samsung continues to add utility to Wallet beyond payments and passes, while Coinbase gains exposure to a large, mobile-first audience.

Security and privacy

• Samsung Wallet security: Wallet data is protected by Samsung Knox, hardware-backed security, and biometric authentication. Payment and pass data are sandboxed and tokenized where applicable.
• Coinbase account safety: Enable strong 2FA, use unique passwords, and add withdrawal whitelists. Beware of phishing; Coinbase will never ask for your seed phrase or password via email or chat.
• Data sharing: Review permissions when redeeming the offer. Only share the minimum required personal information for KYC and promo activation.

Tips to maximize your trial

• Plan trades: Consolidate planned spot trades within the trial window to make the most of $0 trading fees.
• Start small: Test execution and spreads with small orders before scaling volume.
• Use support: If you hit limits or have questions, leverage priority support for faster resolution.
• Set alerts: Track market moves and set price alerts in-app to act efficiently during the trial.
• Mark your calendar: If you don’t want to continue, cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date.

If you meet the eligibility criteria and are comfortable with crypto’s risks, this is a practical, time-bound way to test-drive Coinbase One from your Galaxy device at no cost for three months.
