Android Pay teams up with PayPal in the US
Android Pay has steadily been adding support
for more and more banks in the past few months, but soon there's going to be
another partner for Google's payment system: PayPal.
Support for PayPal accounts is coming to
Android Pay in the US "within the next few weeks". You'll be able to
initiate the pairing of your PayPal account to your Android Pay account from
either of the eponymous mobile apps for Android.
Then when you make a payment through Android
Pay, your PayPal account's balance will be used. At some point in the coming
months PayPal will add the ability to use the cards that you have stored on its
service. When this functionality becomes live, you'll essentially be able to
add your card to PayPal (if it's unsupported directly in Android Pay), and when
you pay for something with the Android Pay app the money will go from that card
to PayPal to Google to the store you're purchasing from - all in one seamless
fell swoop.
This will work wherever Android Pay is
accepted - in-store, in-app, and online.
