Google Wallet Revolution Is Here

By Cornelius Nunev


Now that Google Wallet is here, is a normal wallet even necessary? Pay without cash or credit card in hand, securely and safely.

Start with a smartphone

At the Google Wallet website, you can easily set up an account linking your credit and debit cards to the account. You even get to pick a preferred card with it. Then, you just have to download the application to your cell phone and look for the digital wallet payment in stores where you can then pay through the app.

Google Wallet - A virtual MasterCard

Whenever you use Google Wallet, an account number is given to you. Then, that account number is used to draw funds from whatever card you have the account linked to. There are some instances where the preferred card is charged later, but typically the virtual card is charged. The preferred card is always chosen when making an online payment.

You can keep thieves from stealing your account info by using a virtual number instead of a real one. On top of that, the info for the card is stored with the number rather than with your cell phone. Google Wallet can then deactivate on the phone and wipe all info from the app if you report your phone stolen.

Journey with Google Wallet

Rather than carrying around a massive wallet full of all kinds of credit and debit cards, you can use Google Wallet. Most people can leave the wallet at home and just take a phone with them in the future. Soon, your driver's license and other things will be digitized too, probably, making it much easier very soon to stay away from a wallet altogether.
