Wagg, who previously played for Warwickshire and Derbyshire, joined Glamorgan ahead of the 2011 season and has proved an effective acquisition both in county and one-day cricket.
The 31-year-old enjoyed a successful summer last year, with career-best bowling figures of six for 29 against Surrey at the Kia Oval as well as striking his second century - and first for Glamorgan - in first-class cricket with a career-best 116 not out against Kent at Canterbury.
"I'm delighted to sign a new contract with Glamorgan, my family are settled in Cardiff and it's a great place to play cricket," Wagg told the club's official website.
"I came to Glamorgan to help the club win silverware.
"We haven't got there yet, but the club is ambitious and keen for success and my own personal ambitions have not changed since I arrived here.
"We've some new faces at the club, including some good young players coming through, and with Jacques Rudolph returning as captain I can't wait to get the new campaign started."
Glamorgan chief executive Hugh Morris said: "Graham is an established first team player and his key contributions with bat and ball last year demonstrated his importance to the team.
"We are pleased to have secured his services and Graham's commitment to our cause is a timely boost as our preparations for the new season step up over the course of the coming weeks."
