What do you need Google Wallet for?

The application is designed to store digital documents and cards and quickly access them directly from your smartphone. In fact, the search engine introduced an analogue of the Wallet application from Apple.

Users can add the following cards and documents to the “Wallet”:

  • bank cards;
  • travel documents;
  • tickets;
  • boarding passes;
  • vaccination certificates.

In the future, the developers promise to support the following documents:

  • digital driver’s licenses;
  • identity card (digital passport);
  • virtual access cards to hotel rooms.

It is worth noting that the “Wallet” includes several features ported from GPay – they are related to debit cards. Wallet is expected to replace Google Pay, but the latter will continue to operate as a contactless payment system. The GPay application, which is currently operating for money transfer in many countries, will be further developed.

It will be easier to save the card

In addition to the new application, Google has also made a few changes to the “Wallet” in the Chrome browser. The update allows users to convert all credit and debit cards saved with Chrome Autofill to virtual cards. This means you no longer have to look for an additional security code on the back of your cards when paying online.

How to download Google Wallet

The app is currently not available for download, but will be available soon. It will be available in the Google Play store for citizens of 40 countries, including Ukraine.

Google’s Wallet interface is very similar to GPay, so it will not be difficult for users to understand the basic features of bank cards.
