    The thing I still don't understand is: after registering a card in Google Wallet, can I use my phone to pay anywhere a contactless terminal is available, or do I need to see if the terminal they have supports Google Pay? To rephrase my question, which icon should I look for - my credit card's circuit logo (VISA, Mastercard, etc.) or the Google Pay logo?

    Hi, I installed Google Pay and put 1 credit card's info in it. I tried it once at a store which accepts Google Pay, but it didn't work. I don't have unlimited data, so I usually have Mobile Network turned off, so maybe that was it? Does the phone have to have internet connection to use Google Pay at a store? Also, another video posted by Google said to turn on NFC in Connection Preferences, but my Android 10 did not have that listed as a setting possibility. What to do? Thanks :)

    • @TechforSenior
      @TechforSenior  Рік тому

      Google Wallet is an APP on your phone that creates a unique transaction code for your credit card payment. It doesn't need an internet connection. It communicates with NFC to the credit card terminal and usually will not install if you don't have NFC on your phone. Assuming you have NFC I would delete the APP and try again. If you don't have NFC Google Wallet will not work.

If not, I don't know why NFC wouldn't be on Android 10. I don't understand. That video I mentioned was from last year, so it's not outdated.

      @@TechforSenior Hmmm. In thinking more on this, I'm wondering if NFC capability is something some phones don't have. I was thinking that it's merely software, but now I'm thinking it's a physical transmitter/receiver in the phone. I've watched multiple videos about using Google Pay, and no one has commented on this being an issue, so when I first saw NFC being referred to, I thought it was standard in all modern phones. I'm looking at my phone's manual for it, but it's not easy to find, and they may not even mention it. It's a Moto E that I bought 2 years ago, so I thought it would have everything needed.

      Find your USDT balance.
      Start a withdrawal in SafePal.
      Get your Binance USDT deposit address from your Binance account.
      Carefully paste that Binance address into SafePal.
      Double-check that address!!!
      Enter the amount of USDT you want to send.
      Confirm everything looks good.
      Wait for the transaction to go through - you can usually track it in SafePal or on a blockchain explorer.

Unlike Samsung pay or Apple pay where they ask for password, fingerprint, or face ID

    • @TechforSenior

      Thanks for watching the video and commenting. There is no difference between Apple, Google or Samsung Pay. They work exactly the same. The security required to unlock the device is device specific rather than software. All 3 will require security to be set up on your phone or watch before installing. Your options could include fingerprint, facial ID or PIN. All 3 apps will NOT work if the appropriate security is not enabled on your phone. This is also true for watches but can vary depending on brand.

    • @TechforSenior
      @TechforSenior  5 місяців тому

      When making a purchase at a retailer that accepts Google Wallet, inform the cashier that you have a gift card stored in Google Wallet.
      Open the Google Wallet app and select the gift card you want to use.
      Show the barcode or QR code of the gift card to the cashier for scanning.
      If the total amount exceeds the balance of one gift card, you can ask the cashier to use multiple gift cards.
      The cashier can apply the first gift card, and then you can repeat the process with the second gift card.
      Online Purchases:
      For online purchases, go to the retailer's checkout page.
      Enter the gift card details stored in Google Wallet manually (card number and PIN) if the website does not directly support Google Wallet integration.
      Combine Balances (if allowed):
      Some retailers may allow you to combine the balances of multiple gift cards into one card. Check with the retailer's customer service to see if this option is available.

    Google is also confused. Gpay is only available in the US, Singapore and India now (2024). When I shifted to Aus, I couldn't use it. I had to shift to Google Wallet but couldn't download the app as my Google account wouldn't believe I was in Aus even though my profile said so. After 6 weeks of trying to figure this out with the Google team I just went ahead and created a new Google profile from Aus. But really why can't it just be simple?

      Thanks for watching and commenting. You are correct and the reason I made this video. Apple Pay works perfectly in many countries. Unfortunately confusion is a problem with many other Google Products.

      Thanks for clarifying that. I'm new to all this stuff and needed (due to being forced to use mobile e-tickets) to store my concert ticket somewhere. But tbh I'm very concerned about where this is all heading. It seems as though every aspect of life is becoming digitised and people are jumping onboard with all this without too much thought about how these systems can be abused by Google/Apple etc if you commit wrong think.

      Thanks for watching my video and taking time to comment. We have no affiliation or any support from Google. Many of our videos are very critical of Google and in that particular video I point out that Apple has 94% of the transaction business compared to Google's 3%. Apple Pay works perfectly. Google is really dropping the ball.

    • @TechforSenior
      @TechforSenior  2 роки тому

      Google Wallet has your existing credit cards. If the merchant refunds then the money would go from the Vendor directly to your credit card as it does now. Remember the only function of Google Wallet is to provide security to your credit card transaction by using a " Transaction Code " that doesn't give any personal information.
