Google pay tests the use of qr codes in payments

Google Pay is the payment application for Android, created by Google earlier this year. Currently, to make mobile payments you must have NFC. But in China, where mobile payments are very common, QR codes are used, something that the Google application is planning to use, in fact, the first tests have already started.

Google Pay tests the use of QR codes in payments

The first tests are underway and the use of QR codes is tested so that payments can be made to other people, although the options will surely expand over time.

Google Pay for all users

That Google Pay is doing these tests is important. Since it assumes that the application seeks that all Android phones can make mobile payments. By making use of QR codes, it doesn't matter if a phone has NFC or not. It will be possible to make payments anyway, which gives users a lot of peace of mind, as well as being a boost for the application.

At the moment it is not known how long these tests will last. It seems that there are already users who have access to this interface in the application, in which these QR codes are used to make payments. So everything is already advanced.

Without a doubt, it can be a useful function for Google Pay, which will thus be able to advance significantly in the Android market. We look forward to learning more about the dates this feature will be introduced.
