PayPal allowing users to pay for items and services without ever exposing sensitive information or the extra step of logging in and leaving G Pay, as spotted by TechCrunch.
Keep in mind, there’s already PayPal support in G Pay. You can pay for items at a brick-and-mortar store using your PayPal account if it’s connected to your Gmail without ever having a physical card.
The new integration, which will go live later this year, will include apps like Gmail, YouTube, the Google Store, and any service using Google Pay, including peer-to-peer transfers as well as payments.
It’s an interesting partnership. PayPal will benefit from the additional transaction revenues, while Google will retain potential buyers who otherwise would abandon a transaction after learning PayPal isn’t supported. Essentially, PayPal plus Google can replace a traditional bank account, for some people. (Transaction limits and deposits are the only restrictions.)
After all, you can pay for things online using G Pay, too, but this just brings everything full circle
