Google Pay has been allowing us to associate our PayPal account However, to date, the platform did not allow us to use this PayPal account PayPal to make mobile payments. This is about to change, as both firms have reached an agreement to be able to offer this service. Thanks to this change, Google Pay unlocks a wide range of possibilities to pay.
One of the big problems with Google Pay is that its compatibility with banks is quite limited, especially in countries like Spain where the large number of banks and the lack of agreements make it impossible for this service to be well accepted.PayPal is, and will always be, a good signing for Google Pay mobile payments.
Paying with PayPal via Google Pay by NFC will be possible in a few days
This integration has been announced by both firms last week but the feature is not yet available. There will be some 24 countries that can benefit from this agreement and among them will be Spain. This change allows you to associate a PayPal account and use it as the default payment method for purchases we make with our mobile using NFC technology. In a few days you should be able to do it.
Without a doubt, one of the best changes and news we could hear this week, heralding endless possibilities for Google Pay mobile payments and removing barriers.
If your bank doesn't support Google Pay, PayPal fixes this
PayPal is a payment platform that also works like a bank (in some cases) but in terms of integration it is much more widespread than Google Pay. The platform, owned by EBay, is compatible with practically all the banks you can imagine and other services such as Samsung Pay or Apple Pay are not integrated with this payment method either.
The change will allow you to pay with virtually any bank through Google Pay advancing dramatically in terms of compatibility for mobile payments it means. With this big agreement, Android makes it clear that its service could be a standard in a short time. The question we are asking ourselves now is simple, will Apple Pay move in the same direction or will Google Pay end up reaching the classic iPhones as a mobile payment application as well?
