Bitpay Updates Wallet App to Include Google Pay
Leading crypto payment service provider Bitpay announced Wednesday that it has updated its wallet app with Google Pay. The announcement details:
US cardholders of the Bitpay Prepaid Mastercard can add their card to Google Wallet and spend using Google Pay.
The company added Apple Pay back in February and Samsung Pay is expected to be added soon.
The Bitpay card instantly converts cryptocurrencies into dollars, which are then loaded onto the card. It can be used anywhere Mastercard debit is accepted, as well as online for purchases and to withdraw cash from ATMs.
The Bitpay Wallet app supports 12 cryptocurrencies and stablecoins: BTC, BCH, DOGE, ETH, LTC, WBTC, XRP, BUSD, DAI, GUSD, PAX, and USDC.

Bitpay CEO Stephen Pair commented, “Consumers are seeking more new places and ways to spend their crypto and we want to make their experience fast, easy and secure,” noting:
Adding Google Pay makes it easy and convenient for customers to live life on crypto and benefit from the increased value crypto provides from day-to-day items to luxury purchases.
