Google Pay, formerly known as Android Pay, is a mobile payment platform created by Google for facilitating contactless purchases in apps, online, and in person using Android smartphones, tablets, or smartwatches.
Users can authenticate via a PIN, passcode, or biometrics such as 3D face scanning or fingerprint recognition.
