Mastering Google Pay: A Simple Guide for Android and iPhone Users
Google Pay simplifies online and in-store payments, money transfers, and loyalty card storage, all within a single app. Its ease of use and added benefits, such as rewards and savings, make it a compelling alternative to other digital wallets.
An active Google account is required. If you don't have one, create one first.
1. Download the Google Pay app from your device's app store.
2. Launch the app, select your country (top right), and sign in with your Google account. Tap "Continue" and configure your privacy settings (optional; can be adjusted later).
3. Add a payment method: link a debit/credit card, bank account, or PayPal account. Tap "Add an account" (iOS) or "Link account" (Android). Existing cards in your phone's wallet may be automatically added.
4. Google Pay uses Plaid to securely access account information. Accept the terms and continue.
5. Select your financial institution (search if needed) and log in.
6. Upon successful account linking, tap "Continue." You're ready to use Google Pay!
After linking your bank account or card, easily send or request money from contacts. Simply select the recipient, enter the amount, and confirm.
iOS/WatchOS: Unlock your device, hold it near the contactless terminal, and authenticate with Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode. Note: Gift cards are not supported on iOS.
Android: After setup, unlock your device and tap the terminal.
During checkout, select Google Pay, choose your card, and follow the on-screen instructions. You might need to verify your CVV. Ensure the vendor supports Google Pay.
