Samsung Announces $30 Promotional Credit for Galaxy S26 Reservations

Samsung is encouraging potential buyers of its upcoming Galaxy S26 lineup to register their interest ahead of the official Unpacked event. By providing a name and email address on Samsung’s website or the Shop Samsung app, shoppers can secure a $30 credit that will be redeemable at checkout for accessories once pre‑orders launch. No payment information or credit card details are required to claim the offer.

The credit is limited to accessories and cannot be applied toward the cost of the new phone or any other devices announced at the event. The promotion must be claimed before the deadline, which is less than 24 hours away and specifically before 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT the following day.

Additional Trade‑In Incentives

Alongside the $30 accessory credit, Samsung is promoting up to $900 in trade‑in credit for eligible phones at the time of purchase. An example cited in the announcement mentions that trading in an S24 Ultra could yield up to $700 in credit, provided the device meets certain eligibility criteria and shows only normal wear and tear.

What to Expect from the Galaxy S26 Lineup

While exact specifications remain unconfirmed, early rumors suggest the new Galaxy S26 series will introduce a built‑in privacy mode capable of blacking out content from selected apps or portions of the display. The lineup is also expected to expand its Galaxy AI features, particularly new AI‑powered camera tools, and to feature a brighter camera system overall.

How to Take Advantage

Consumers interested in the upcoming devices should act quickly to register for the promotional credit. After the devices are announced and pre‑orders become available, the $30 credit can be applied during checkout for eligible accessories. The trade‑in offer will be available at the point of purchase for qualifying devices.
