Wallet - what is it?
“Apple Wallet”, “Google Wallet” and "Samsung Wallet" are applications directly integrated into your smartphone - “Apple Wallet” for iPhone users, “Google Wallet” and "Samsung Wallet" (if your mobile is a Samsung phone) for Android users.
These three apps are virtual wallets that allow you to save all kinds of tickets, such as plane tickets, train tickets, tickets for shows or member passes.
Just like a regular ticket, you can use the ticket saved on your phone as you see fit. And the advantage is, you do not have to print it. No risk of forgetting your ticket!
