Similar to Apple Pay on iOS devices, you can use Google Pay to make payments easily in physical stores, just by holding your Android phone close to a compatible payment terminal.
Once you do this, the transaction will be more or less completed automatically. This process is very convenient.
Before anything, you should make sure that you’ve installed the Google Pay app on your Android, and added at least one payment method.
How to enable in-store purchases in Google Pay
- Once you have the app set up, all you need to do is enable NFC — or “near-field communications” — on your phone.
- Open the Settings app and tap “Connections,” or “Connection preferences,” depending on your device.
- Make sure that “NFC and payment” are turned on by swiping the button to the right.
- You’ll also have to make sure that Google Pay is set as the default payment method on your phone.
- On some Androids, this option will be located in the “Connection preferences” section.
- On the “Connection preferences” page, tap “Contactless payments” under “NFC.”
- Then, select the option for “Payment default: Google Pay.”
- On other Android phones, the default payment option may be located in the “Apps & Notifications” section of your Settings app.
- Open the Settings app, tap “Apps & Notifications,” and select “Default apps.”
- Then tap “Tap & Pay.”
