About Google Pay
Google Pay is a digital wallet with more than 150 million users. It is used through the Chrome browser, regardless of what platform or device is used. Like other wallet services, customers can store their credit and debit cards and then use Google Pay to quickly select a payment option without re-entering all their details.

How to test Google Pay
You'll need to get Google Chrome or use an Android device to test Google Pay.
You can test Google Pay using your Paddle sandbox account.
- Turn on Google Pay for your Paddle account.
- Sign up for a Google Account, if you don't already have one.
- Add at least one card to Google Pay. You can use test cards when working with Google Pay, but you must have at least one valid card in your wallet.
- Join the Google Group for test cards. This automatically adds test cards to your wallet when Google Pay detects a test environment, like Paddle sandbox.
- Open a checkout and choose Google Pay as the payment method.
- Choose one of the Google Pay test cards and complete purchase.
If you're using Google Chrome on desktop, make sure the Allow sites to check if you have payment methods option is turned on in Chrome settings. This is turned on by default.
