    I was not a part of the discussion to implement Google Pay into our store, but I am definitely an advocate. Amazon Pay was used sparingly but still a helpful option; I believe that Google Pay is more widespread and simpler to use. I would be interested to see how payment …

    We have used PayPal Payments as well. Google Pay is pretty on par with PayPal Payments but opens up payments to additional users since many people have a google account.

    We've used PayPal for business in the past and it can sometimes be a little problematic locating where everything is. Google Pay (formerly known as Google Wallet)'s interface is so smooth that we only need to look in a tab or two to glean important information or catalog an …

    Google Pay is almost supported with every shopping website whereas Amazon Pay only supports Amazon and you need to first add funds to your Amazon Pay wallet. With Google Pay, you just need to input your UPI in and the rest of the gateway handles it for you by redirecting you to …

    This is somewhat better than Paytm because in their case when payment remains incomplete and money gets deducted, you sometimes have to wait for a long time for the refund. But in Google Pay, you don’t have to worry as the deducted amount gets refunded without any hassle. Also, …

    There are many alternative products on the market that function similarly to Google Pay. I think the closest competitor I've used would be Apple Pay, but there are other products like Venmo and Zelle that are somewhat similar. I think Google Pay is at least as good, if not …

    I think Google Pay is roughly comparable to the above products. That said, Google Pay came onto the market much later than things like PayPal, Apple Pay, Venmo, and other peer to peer wallet apps, so it is easy to see why people already have preferences for other apps. My …

    Paytm and Amazon Pay are also good application but you know everyone have blind trust on Google services because of their free and secure services. Just tap and pay direct from your bank accounts making these app so easy and beautiful. No doubt Google apps UI's are always …

    I like PayPal because I can use the money instantly with my debit card, something I don't see Google Wallet offering. I like Google Wallet because everything I do online somehow seamlessly work with Google and it would be great if I could use this exclusively.

    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
    Google
    • 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

    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.

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.
