Samsung Wallet Now Supports Porsche Digital Keys in Europe

It relies on UWB or NFC under industry specifications with EAL6+ security.

Overview

  • Support launches this month for the Porsche Macan (MY26) in Europe, with a global rollout tied to Porsche vehicle launch schedules including the Cayenne Electric next year.
  • Galaxy users can lock, unlock, and start their cars from Samsung Wallet, with optional key sharing to trusted contacts.
  • If a phone is lost or stolen, owners can remotely lock the device or delete the car key via Samsung's Find service.
  • Communication uses Ultra‑Wideband for precise ranging and NFC for close‑range taps, following standards from the Car Connectivity Consortium and the FiRa Consortium.
  • Setup requires the My Porsche app to link the vehicle before adding the key to Samsung Wallet, and supported Galaxy devices include models as far back as the S20, Note 20, Z Fold 2, and Flip 5G.
