How To Enable NFC & Contactless Payments On Samsung Galaxy S25 / S25 Ultra

Enabling NFC and contactless payment on your Samsung Galaxy S25 series device allows you to make fast, secure transactions using services like Google Pay, Samsung Wallet, or other supported digital payment apps. Whether you're tapping to pay at a store or using your phone as a digital car key, turning on NFC is essential for seamless wireless communication between your phone and nearby payment terminals. To get started, open the Settings app on your Galaxy S25. Tap the search icon at the top and type in “NFC.” From the search results, tap on NFC and contactless payments. This will take you directly to the correct settings page. Here, you'll see a toggle to enable NFC. Switch it on to activate the feature. Below the toggle, you’ll also find a section labeled Contactless payments. This is where you can select your preferred payment app, such as Google Pay or Samsung Wallet. If multiple apps are installed that support tap-to-pay, you can choose a default one for quicker transactions. Once NFC is turned on and a payment app is selected, your Galaxy S25 is ready for contactless use. Just unlock your device, hold it near the payment terminal, and follow on-screen instructions to complete the transaction. For added convenience, some apps may also support features like quick authentication with fingerprint or face recognition. This setup also supports other NFC-based features like transferring files, scanning NFC tags, and accessing smart car or home systems. Keep in mind that not all regions or carriers support every payment service, so make sure to install the appropriate app and link a payment method beforehand.
