They are twins with Microsoft. New product, massive hype, dead in 3 years.

To make matters worse, they keep reusing the same names for things. I honestly don’t know if I use Google Pay or Google Wallet? I just push the credit card icon on my phone.
I didn’t even realize Pay and Wallet were two different things lmao. Apparently, I use Wallet
Good news, you won’t have to switch for approximately 3 years!
Doesn’t the huge diversity of blue, red, green, yellow logos make it obvious which app is which?
They stopped innovating in the late 2000s. It’s all been pointless marketing rebrands since.
Capitalism in a nutshell. Once a monopoly has been established, all that’s left is to keep others down through bs IP laws, patents and decrease wages.
What competing product? Wallet?
According to the article posted, yes.
There was a payment app (maybe wallet?). Then they killed it and forced everyone to Pay. It was terrible, and everyone hated it. They gave up on that and brought back Wallet. They are now ending Pay. This is a good thing.
Whatever that app was. 🤷 Google does so much country-specific and A/B stuff, it’s impossible to even know what their ecosystem is.
