    This tool is perfect for any pilot, whether he or she is an ATP or a student. This is an all-in-one tool for preflight operations through post-flight operations. The subscriptions might be pricey for some people, but the resources it provides, as well as its functions and capabilities, make the paid service very valuable.

    I have only scratched the surface of Google Pay's capabilities because we do not have a physical store. I believe the benefits would increase for locations where smartphone payment is already underway in physical stores that also do online sales. If your business deals with very little foot traffic or does not offer a variety of payment choices, do more research before adding Google Pay as an option — Google Pay is an eager competitor to Apple Pay, and therefore offers businesses opportunities to run promotions and other incentives to adopt Google Pay currently, so it still may be worthwhile to smaller businesses. Google Pay is about to implement a banking option, which will likely add to the number of users and therefore excited customers with Google Pay to spend with you. The web implementation seems simple and should be a good addition to websites where multiple payment types are available.

    Cons
    ForeFlight
    • It would be helpful to be able to import Cloud Ahoy data onto ForeFlight to see specific instrument data during specific phases of flight.
    • When typing waypoints into the Flight Plan section, it would be helpful if pressing backspace simply erases the last character, rather than every character in the waypoint typed thus far.
    • It would be helpful to be able to place flight breadcrumbs on the map, even after the breadcrumbs time has expired, for review in the future.
    • It would be helpful to include a sum total of ground instruction time in the Experience Report section of the logbook.

    • It would be helpful if Google Pay could sync with things like Apple Pay so that saved payment methods can be automatically imported
    • There are certain times when Google Pay grants offers for cash back at merchants but the transfer time on the cash back is something like 30 days, which is a long time to wait
    • Google Pay could also integrate with other credit card and bank apps to add stored payment methods from there

    Usability
    ForeFlight
    First, it is very easy to learn how to use ForeFlight through active use of the products. Additionally, its website has helpful videos and guides that provide tutorials on how to use its resources. ForeFlight also produces helpful legends that helps pilots to interpret symbology correctly. Finally, it is very easy to share documents, endorsements, etc., among ForeFlight users.

    I feel that this system not safe. Google keep charging my credit card but they say they cannot trace the payment because there is no transaction record! I cannot stop the payment.

    I have had no direct experience with the Customer Support team for google pay. I never faced any issues or problems. I heard from other friends and colleagues that the customer service is great. This method of payment is now more and more being used as it is more secure and also at the same time fast and easy.

    GooglePay appears similar but the seller charges no commission. On the downside, there is also no payment protection. So if a transaction goes wrong and it is paid directly from a bank account or via a debit card then you have no buyer protection. This is a significant risk when using GooglePay. PayPal has its own buyer protection.

    Return on Investment
    ForeFlight
    • The operational costs of ForeFlight are likely to be minimal, especially when compared to the efficiency gains (e.g., flight preparation, etc.) and potential boosts to safety (e.g., weight and balance calculations, information that can be used for aeronautical decision-making scenarios, etc.).
