Samsung has just unveiled a new Samsung Wallet app that looks a lot like Apple's Passbook app.
Samsung Wallet is a mobile app that allows users to store and manage event tickets, boarding passes, membership cards and coupons all in one place. Just like Passbook, users can receive time or location based notifications when they're able to use their passes. Additionally, real-time updates on membership card points and changes to boarding passes are also support.
Developers can contact Samsung for access to the Samsung Wallet API beta. NFC is not supported as of yet.
Samsung has partnered with Walgreens, Belly, Major League Baseball Advanced Media, Expedia, Booking.com, Hotels.com, and Lufthansa for launch.
Check out the video below and see if you can spot the similarities...
