How to Pay with Your Phone  

Using Google Pay is designed to be effortless: 

  • In Stores: Simply wake up your phone (no need to open the app) and hold the back of it near the contactless payment terminal. Look for the blue checkmark or listen for the beep. For security, you'll need to unlock your device after every few transactions. 

  • In Apps & Online: When checking out in your favourite apps or websites, just select the Google Pay button. Your payment and shipping info will be filled in automatically - no more typing out card details. 

Google Pay protects your payment info with multiple layers of security, using one of the world’s most advanced security infrastructures to help keep your information safe
