Back in 2022, Google Wallet pretty much replaced Google Pay as the main tap-and-go app for the tech giant – except in several countries including the US. But a recent announcement is finally putting an end to the payment app.
Google Pay will be discontinued on June 4, 2024 in the US and in most other regions other than Singapore and India, according to the official Google blog. For those who still use Pay, Google asserts that Wallet offers the same features as well as new ones such as digital items like transit cards, driver’s licenses, state IDs, and more. Google states that Google Wallet is “used five times more than the Google Pay app in the U.S.,” meaning that most users seem to have made the transition already.
