Google Pay is a new way to pay for things online. You can use it to pay for things like parking, groceries, and even movie tickets. But there are a few things you can do to make sure that your transactions go smoothly and that your customers are happy. One thing you can do is add loyalty and membership cards to your Google Pay account. This will help ensure that your customers are more likely to return and recommend you to others. Plus, it will give you a little bit of extra money each time someone uses Google Pay. Another thing you can do is set up automatic payments for people who use Google Pay. This will ensure that people who use Google Pay get paid on time, and that they don’t have to worry about paying for things manually every time they want to pay something online.
Google Pay is a one-stop-shop for making purchases using your phone. One piece of the puzzle is the ability to handle loyalty and membership cards. We’ll show you how to free up some wallet space.
Mobile payments are a big part of the Google Pay service, but it’s about more than scanning your phone at contactless readers or tracking your credit card spending.
In the same way that you can add a credit card and pay by holding your phone to a reader, putting your loyalty and membership cards in Google Pay allows you to leave the physical cards at home.

While loyalty cards are present on the iPhone and iPad app, adding them isn’t possible. You’ll need an Android device to do that.
First, download Google Pay from the Play Store. Make sure that you download the correct Google Pay app. This feature doesn’t work with the “old” Google Pay app that was replaced in late 2020.
Once you’re past the initial sign-up process, tap the card icon in the top-right corner on the center “Pay” tab. The icon will appear as your credit card if one has been added to your account.
Next, tap “Add a Card” at the bottom of the screen.
From the menu, select “Loyalty.”
Search for the business of your card and select it.
A camera viewfinder will open, and you can scan the barcode of your card. Alternatively, tap “Enter Manually.”
Once your card has been added, you’ll see it appear with the barcode, ready to be scanned. Google Pay also displays some useful information about the business underneath.
That’s it! To use the card in the future, simply tap the card shortcut on the “Pay” tab and select your card.
