Users can issue, view, share, and submit a total of 11 types of electronic certificates issued by the Republic of Korea's e-government service 'Government24' within Samsung Pay.


To use the service, users must first register as a member of Government24 and then obtain an electronic signature certificate through 'Samsung Pass' within the Samsung Pay application. After that, the service can be accessed via the electronic certificate menu inside the Samsung Pay app.


The issued electronic certificates are valid for 90 days from the date of initial issuance. The issued certificates can also be stored on the user's smartphone device through a password setting feature.


Meanwhile, Samsung Electronics is expanding the issuance scope of the 'Samsung Pay prepaid recharge card' to allow those under the age of 14 to safely use payment services via Samsung Pay.



Users under 14 years old can obtain and use a prepaid recharge card on Samsung Pay with parental consent. This resolves issues related to loss of physical cards, and payments for youth-harmful businesses are restricted.
