Official Android Blog: Pay your way with Android

Pay your way with Android

Thursday, May 28, 2015

Credit cards, debit cards, loyalty cards, cash, coins. Forget fumbling through your wallet next time you’re in a store Things are more interesting when we create them together. So we’ve approached Android Pay the same way we approach every other part of the Android family -- partnering with the ecosystem -- bringing together mobile carriers, payment networks, banks and retailers to deliver you choice and flexibility. And offering developers an open platform to collectively push mobile payments forward.
Tap to pay in stores
With Android Pay, you can simply unlock your phone like you normally do, place it near a merchant’s contactless terminal, and you’re good to go. Android Pay does all the heavy lifting. You don’t even need to open an app—just tap and go. You’ll also see a payment confirmation and get transaction details right on your phone.
Also, with select retailers, your loyalty programs and special offers will be automatically applied at checkout. For example, when you tap to buy a Coke at a vending machine, your MyCokeRewards will be automatically applied. With Android Pay the contactless terminal not only receives your payment info, but also your loyalty programs and offers.

Tap to pay in apps Making an online purchase? The days of entering your credit card and shipping address each time you make a purchase online will be a thing of the past. Just select “Buy with Android Pay” and leave the rest to us; checkout is as fast as a tap.

To make it easier for developers to add Android Pay to your favorite apps, we’ve designed our platform to work with any payment processor. And we’re partnering with top payments processors including Braintree, CyberSource, First Data, Stripe and Vantiv to make integration even easier.
The choice is yours With Android Pay you will be able to pay with your credit or debit card, across multiple Android devices, and at thousands of stores and apps that you already know and love. And by enabling bank apps to integrate with our platform, you’ll be able to add your credit and debit cards directly from bank apps for use with Android Pay.

It's still early days, but we're very excited and think that this type of open platform will help drive adoption in mobile payments.
Security is at the center of Android Pay
We know how important it is for you to keep your personal and financial information secure. Therefore, we’re working with leading payment networks and financial institutions in the US to deliver industry standard security tokenization, to support Android Pay’s launch later this year.

Shop at your favorites

Android Pay will soon be accepted at over 700,000 store locations from your favorite brands across the US, and in over 1000 Android apps. And we’ll be adding more every day.

I don't shop at corporate stores. How are you going to include local small businesses like vendors at the farmers market? And what about bit coin? If I could pay a vendor at the farmers market in bitcoin even if he doesn't know what it is, that would be pretty awesome!

Indian Govt. will never allow android pay due to security reasons, since it never allowed to make payments via 'PayPal' in India.

EMV tokenization spec? If so great leap forward against Breaches.

Needs to be in Australia - we have the highest adoption rate for NFC for Paypass/wave anywhere in the world.

Also, how will it be implemented? As an Android Pay specific negotiation similar to apple, which requires deals with every company, or as an emulated Mastercard/Visa/AMEX that could be used anywhere in the world?

Tap & pay terminals are almost ubiquitous in Canada. Most of the banks here already have their own proprietary wallet for tap & pay (not in app purchase though). So on the one hand Canada would easily adopt Android Pay (have you seen how people are salivating over Apple Pay here) but on the other hand none of the banks really needs it (have you seen how much trouble Apple has had getting them on-board).

What about Android Pay for Sprint? Especially since Sprint was the first and primary supporter of Google Wallet...

It's so frustrating that the uptake of NFC payments in the UK is SOOOOO slow.

It looks great and all - but the chances of me getting to use it at all in the next 12 months is pretty slim.
