Google Wallet was previously Google Pay. Now it’s Google Wallet. Google Pay can still be used as a standalone app with different functionality. It’s very simple. The new Wallet App is more user-friendly and focused, making it easier to add cards or delete them from the app. Here are the steps to add and remove cards from Google Wallet.
How to get rid of a Google Wallet Card
This is a simple process if your card has been updated or you want to use Google Wallet.
Open the Google Wallet application.
Navigate the card you wish to delete and tap it.
Tap the three dots in the upper-right corner. Select Remove payment method.
After the pop-up menu for removing payment methods appears, click the button to remove it.
Your card was removed from use and is no longer available for mobile payments.
How to modify your payment method during a purchase on Google Play
- Open the Google Play Store on your Android phone/tablet.
- Visit the detail page of a paid item.
- Tap on the price, then review app permissions.
- Next to the app name, tap the Down arrow. Then tap on Payment methods.
- Choose one of the payment options you already have or add one.
- Complete your purchase.
Google Pay temporarily suspends your card.
You can disable contactless payment for the mobile cards in your Google Pay account to suspend payments with Google Pay.
- Go to Google Pay App, open it, and select the card you wish to suspend. A confirmation message is displayed. Tap Yes, disable. You can only make contactless payments with your card using Google Pay once you enable it for payments again.
- This will not have any effect on your physical card. You can continue making transactions with it. Google Pay will suspend your physical credit card temporarily, and you won’t be able to make transactions with the card.
- Additionally, your Google Pay will still allow you to make online purchases if you only disable contactless payments at stores.
