The new Google Wallet is now available to all users

The official launch of Google Wallet is the latest step in Google’s long history of payment app variations. In 2018, Google Pay was created by combining Google Wallet and Android Pay into a single app that included tap-to-pay, tickets, and loyalty programs under one umbrella that worked across Android and Google Chrome. Google Pay received a major app update in 2020 to include peer-to-peer payments, deals, and other services.

Now, at its Google I/O event in May, Google announced the return of Wallet, splitting things up once more to create a dedicated home for payment cards, plane tickets, government IDs, vaccination proof, and even car keys.

Users will be able to use the app to pay at merchants that accept Google Pay.

Google Wallet can be downloaded from the Google Play Store. Users must have Android 5.2 or later, a Google account, and a valid US phone number. You should then be able to start adding different cards to your Google Wallet. Your card should be loaded if you already have a card connected to the Google Play Store or YouTube.

It functions similarly to a gift card in that users deposit a set amount of money into the wallet, which they can then spend as they see fit.
