How To Use Google Pay?
Google Pay can be used to make contactless payments in stores,
make purchases online, and send money to friends and family.
Here's how to use it. Use our clickable sections below to keep track
of what step you're on during this tutorial. Once installed from the Google Play store, open the Google Pay app and press "Get started."Connect your Gmail account if you want Google Pay to easily find things like coupons and boarding passes, then select your location preference.
It looks like Google Pay has already found a Best Western rewards account, which it has put in its Passes category. To add a card for payment, you can press "Payment" at the bottom and then press the "Payment method" button. You can link a credit card, debit card, or PayPal account. Go through the prompts of adding the card, and Google will then verify it's you before you use your new payment method. You may need to add more details to a card if it prompts you to set up in-store payments. You can change what card you use as your default in-store payment by pressing on the card and choosing
the "Default for in-store payments" option. Once you are verified and your cards are set up, here's how you can use Google Pay in a store. Using Google Pay in-store is only available for Android users. Make sure NFC is enabled on your phone in its settings and that contactless payments are on and set to Google Pay. If the store's payment terminal accepts Google Pay, it will typically have one of these symbols on it. Unlock your phone. You do not need to open the Google Pay app. Position the back of your phone close to the payment terminal for a few seconds. The placement of where to put your phone will vary based on the terminal. If you see a contactless payment symbol, try to get close to that. You may be required to enter your PIN or use the fingerprint reader, but you should see a checkmark appear after a moment, indicating that the purchase is complete.
When you're paying for something online, you may notice Google Pay as an option. Press it and follow the prompts when you are ready to check out. To send money to someone using Google Pay, press the "Send" button, then press the "Send or request" button. Search for your recipient using a phone number or email address, or choose it from your contacts.
Choose your amount and press "Send."Google recommends adding a debit card to send the money, which is also one of the fastest methods of transfer. You can also add a bank account or a Google Pay balance to make the transfer. Your recipient must also use Google Pay and claim the money within 14 days,
or it will be returned to you.
