When to Use Advanced Integrations

The capabilities in this chapter are not prerequisites for a standard user-initiated Add to Samsung Wallet integration. Implement them only when they are required by the approved business flow or operational scale.

If you are building your first card, return to Build Your First Card and defer this chapter until the base flow works end to end.

Advanced integrations extend the standard user-initiated add flow. They introduce additional user-resolution, template-automation, action or device-capability requirements and should be selected during onboarding rather than discovered during implementation.

These capabilities are intended for controlled operational scenarios where:

  • Wallet card templates must be managed centrally

  • Card issuance is initiated by the partner backend system

  • Administrative authorisation is required

  • An approved flow requires Action Data or NFC capability

All APIs defined in this section require authentication and authorisation as specified in Security & Authentication.

This section covers:

Notifications and ordinary lifecycle updates are covered in Manage Card Lifecycle because they may be part of a standard integration.
