Google Wallet - update


The wallet is beneficial in that it truly enables me to slip a much slimmer wallet in my pocket, and transferring funds from my bank onto the card is simple. The one function I have yet to be able to utilize is the paypass option. Perhaps it is because it is not an available payment method at many of the retailers I frequent. I have found it on the vending machines at my employer and attempted to purchase a soda using it, but kept getting an error; however this could have been the fault of the device on the vending machine as opposed to the wallet application.

Google Wallet: An easier way to pay... and I'm game for it!

Okay, so I'm doing it. I'm going to use Google Wallet for more than just Play store app purchases. I even have the card on the way... so we shall see how I like it.

Will it be as easy as claimed? (Google has yet to really let me down. Sure, some ideas don't take off, but that's just par for the course.)

Will I be able to just "tap and pay" with my phone in many retail locations?

How much more convenient will it make my online shopping?



I'll find out and share my experience here.



How about you? Have you made the switch? Have you decided against it? Why/Why not?
