Curious, what's good about pay-with-mobile device? Never have felt compelled to to try it. Also seems like Google can't figure it out.
"Google Payment app No. 3 (Google Pay) is being shut down in favor of Google Payment app No. 4 (Google Wallet). "

@b4cks4w That's just Google being Google. Every successful product must be terminated and replaced. Often with something better, often with something worse.
I find phone payment more convenient than digging out a credit card, and trying half a dozen different ways to tap, insert, or swipe it until I find what works.
@walterbays Are there other features of it beyond the payment action? E.g. accounting or (anything).
@walterbays see that kind of thing would be cool. Sounds a bit like the octopus card in Hong Kong.

@b4cks4w I used it before for boarding passes because Gmail saw the documents in mail and offered to store them to wallet. I just had to click okay. Of course I also downloaded the PDF just in case, not trusting that there'd be network connection at TSA screening, or that Google would be smart enough to cache data. Turned out not to be needed.
