- Hold the back of your phone close to the payment terminal for a few seconds.
- Your payment is successful when you see a blue check mark.
Then, simply follow the payment terminal's instructions—the same as you would if you insert your card.
Or to pay with Android Wear in stores:
- Open Google Pay app on your watch.
- Hold your watch over the payment terminal until you hear a sound or feel a vibration.
- Choose "credit" if asked, regardless of card type and follow the instructions on the payment terminal.
Just look for the Google Pay logo, or older Google Wallet or Android Pay logos when you shop online using any browser, or in apps like Uber and Airbnb.
At checkout, just tap the Google Pay purchase button. You might be asked to pick a payment method and enter your shipping address before confirming your order.
You will need an NFC-enabled Android phone running Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or higher. To see the version of Android you're running, open your phone's "Setting" app, then tap "About Device."
If you see one of the following errors, your phone might not be supported:
- "Google Pay can't be used."
- "Google Pay is unable to verify your device."
- "You can no longer use Google Pay on this phone."
If you have a supported device and are experiencing issues, many of them can be fixed by resetting your phone to factory settings.

Security
When you add your Discover card to Google Pay, a virtual account number is created for that card on your device. Think of it as a digital stand-in for your payment information. This number is different from your credit card number. To view the last four digits of the virtual account number, go to "Card details" or "Transaction details."
Your personal account information is never stored on your device. You can lock and erase it from anywhere when you visit google.com/android/find and sign in to your Google account. Alternatively, you can call us at 1-877-742-7822 and we will assist you in deactivating your card in Google Pay.
If your card is misplaced, you can freeze your Discover account online or with our mobile app. The Freeze it® on/off switch prevents new purchases, cash advances and balance transfers in seconds.*
