Google pay how to use in store

Q: Can I pay in store with Google Play?

Google Pay is a digital wallet thats tied to your Google account. You can use it to send or request money with friends (kind of like Venmo), use it in apps to pay for things and use it at a store or restaurant with an Android phone or watch running Wear OS.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your device screen lock, Google ID, Google passwords and any other means that you may have from time to time to access the Android device, Google Pay application or your Eligible Card credentials. You must keep your Android device and security credentials safe and secure at all times – in the same way you would your actual Eligible Card or PIN. Never share your device security credentials, Google ID, Google passwords or allow another person to register their fingerprint to your device, as that person will be able to make payments using your Eligible Card and/or obtain access to your personal and payment information available with Google Pay or other Google properties. If you do allow someone access, you will be responsible for his/her use of your Eligible Card.
