Samsung's Tap to Transfer cash feature is coming to the Wallet app this month

Tapping two Galaxy phones together will let you send money right from a linked debit card, via the Samsung Wallet app.

This will allow you to make payments to friends and family via the Samsung Wallet app on Galaxy smartphones by tapping your devices together, bypassing the need to manually transfer funds from your online banking app. Samsung says payments will land in the bank account of the recipient within minutes. You can also make payments Venmo-style between Samsung Wallets by searching for the recipient’s phone number and making the transfer remotely, but this obviously isn’t as fast as the person-to-person phone bump method.
