WHAT IS GOOGLE PAY

Google Pay is an app that you download and install on your smartphone or smartwatch that uses the Android operating system. You can find the app in the Android Market on your android phone. You can use the app to send and receive money from others.

You can pay for goods by simply unlocking your Android phone like you normally do (which also enables Google Pay to authenticate your transaction), then placing it near a merchant's contactless terminal, and that's it.

I s there a fee? When you use Google Pay to transfer money to family or friends, or when you use a debit card to make a purchase in a store or through a service, Google Pay charges no added fees. You will pay a 2.9% fee when you use a credit card.

 Companies that have their current accounts linked with the app can even receive payments up to Rs. 50,000 from the customers for free. Cash Mode is another Google Pay feature that is unique. It allows users to transfer money to other Google Pay users in proximity without entering the bank details or mobile number.

Maybe most important is that when you buy something with Google Pay, your credit card details aren't sent to the merchant. The system creates a virtual account number for every transaction and that's what gets sent through the merchant's payment system.  It's more secure than using a normal credit card with a magstripe. Google Pay safer than debit card?
