'Google Wallet' - Tap, Pay and Save


Google have just released a new revolutionary technology which will allow customers to pay with their phone or should I say 'Google Wallet'. The Tap, Pay and Save campaign has just been launched and is set to take the U.S. by storm.

For the time being this new technology is fairly limited to specific mobile phones and card carriers. For example Citibank MasterCard is currently the only card available to use with your Google Wallet, however this I'm sure will change as it becomes more widely used. For now, rest assured, those without Citibank MasterCards will be able to link up their own card with a Google Pre Pay credit card system which is also available with 'Google Wallet'. 

'Google Wallet' can be used anywhere a MasterCard paypass is available with hundreds and thousands of locations already in place in the continental U.S..

Google have pledged that this is only the beginning as they announce what the future of 'Google Wallets' might hold; Boarding Passes, Tickets and much more. What is for sure is that this is an exciting new venture and it's going to be interesting to see how it will ultimately develop.
