Previously, Google Wallet on Wear OS was limited to payments via credit or debit cards. Now, Google has expanded its digital wallet capabilities on wearables by introducing PayPal as a new payment option.
Google recently announced that PayPal integration is now available in Google Wallet for Wear OS devices. At present, this feature is active in the United States and Germany, with plans to roll out to more regions in the coming months. This means that users of Galaxy Watch 4, Galaxy Watch 5, and Galaxy Watch 6 series can now use PayPal to make payments via Google Wallet.
