After being one of the most recognizable apps using for payment processing, is making the switch to using Android Pay as the old Wallet system is closing in on its sunset. Though is most notably taking over as the NFC tap-and-pay system for Google, it is also ready to handle in-app and online payments that were once handled by Google Wallet as well.
