So @Aleksander-H just pointed out in another thread that Google released a new Pay app that is not available in all countries but should replace the old app.

And in case people come here looking for details on why they can’t find Google Pay on their watch, please check the list of supported countries which you can find here:

Dutch news: it seems that GPay will be supported by ABN Amro (one of the major national banks) this year.

[JANTIKAINEN]

Is GPay support bank or Google related?
Sorry I’m sure this has been discussed somewhere here before.

@jantikainen bank and Google, they have to collaborate.

And after they collaborate it will work on Android. Google still needs to allow that country on WearOS.

@metalmi Thanks for the clarification. Here in Finland we have Gpay for android but not with wear os. So wonder why google isn’t allowing it.

Same here in Norway.

@aleksander-h and there’s no point in asking since google never replies to anything.

Yes, you can get some generic answer. I got that they are always working on adding new countries bla bla …

Back to the S7 after one and a half years, GPay is now Google wallet, it’s supported by many banks, but not mine

[freeheeler]

@isazi
but you can connect common credit cards?

[isazi]

@freeheeler it needs to be supported by the bank. Most dutch banks offer support, mine doesn’t.

[freeheeler]

@isazi
I wasn’t aware we are able to connect maestro and v-pay cards, I thought only credit cards work with wallet… good to know, thanks

[Pavlas]

@isazi Curve is the solution

[deltof]

C’est la fonction que j’utilise le plus au quotidien

With android device that has not been updated in 1 year and connecting to internet, I would not recommend storing your credit card information.

@kurko the wallet app is updated constantly by Google.
