Imagine arriving home and unlocking your door with the same effortless tap you use to pay for your morning coffee. No apps to search for, no physical keys to fumble with, and zero friction. This is the promise of Wallet Digital Key, the next major evolution in smart lock technology.
A Seamless Unlocking Experience
At the heart of this transformation is Aliro, a new industry initiative designed to ensure digital credentials work flawlessly across smartphones, platforms, and hardware. By integrating these secure credentials directly into your mobile wallet, your phone effectively becomes your primary key.
Instead of navigating through a dedicated smart lock app, you can now:
-
Tap-to-Unlock: Simply tap your phone against the lock for instant entry.
-
Proximity Authentication: Approach the door for secure, hands-free authentication.
-
Integrated Security: Leverage the high-level encryption already built into your smartphone’s secure element.
Powering the Samsung Wallet Ecosystem
Our upcoming support for digital keys is optimized for leading platforms, including Samsung Wallet. By storing your home or property key alongside your payment cards and IDs, unlocking your door becomes faster, more secure, and more convenient than ever before. This deep integration removes the need to rely on a separate app for everyday access, making your smart home feel truly intuitive.
Coming to Our Advanced Smart Lock Lineup
We are excited to announce that Wallet Digital Key support is being designed for our premier smart lock portfolio, including:
-
Bolt Series: Bolt Pro

These devices already lead the market with fingerprint access and NFC capabilities. With the addition of Wallet Digital Keys, they will become part of a broader, standardized digital access ecosystem.
Why This Matters for Modern Living
This shift toward wallet-based credentials offers transformative benefits for everyone:
-
For Homeowners: Say goodbye to physical keys and enjoy seamless access sharing with family members.
-
