Born September 19, 2011, GPay helped many Android users purchase items using their phones and/or smartwatches. On June 4, 2024, it and Google's peer-to-peer payment system will fly to the tech afterlife, to be succeeded by Google Wallet.

It's a loss many will feel, but GPay will not be forgotten.

Did you know GPay and Google Wallet were different apps? Let us know in the comments.

Google Pay is basically the same as Venmo, PayPal...and like Apple Cash. Google Wallet is like Apple Pay, a system for handling payments of different types (credit cards, transit cards, P2P).

Been using Wallet for a few years here in Britain. I knew about G Pay but I hadn't adopted contactless back then. It makes better sense to just have everyone on one version of a virtual wallet.

But when I open Google Wallet, it says "To ad a card use G Pay" 🤔

Don't be confused. The G Pay will still work through the Google Wallet app. Google sucks at branding and marketing. 😒

Maybe I will stop opening G pay on my phone now to only get told I'm using the wrong app again.
