G+_John Little Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 More places need to take google wallet. I always leave the house without my wallet, but never forget my phone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_L I Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I recently got it to work surprisingly at Winn Dixie but it failed at Home Depot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Elizabeth Whitmire Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 At Home Depot, you don't even need the phone with you. Or your wallet. If you have a PayPal account, that is. It's not Google Wallet, but who cares, when all you need is your phone number and the 4 digit pin you set up with PayPal? I love that system - wish more were that easy.

G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I think Home Depot is part of CurrentC (which is an awful service), so neither Google Wallet nor Apple Pay will work there. But, as Elizabeth Whitmire mentioned, it does support PayPal payments with your phone number and PIN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_L I Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I'm not sure I want to set that PayPal system up especially if it needs my real phone number as opposed to my Google Voice number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_L I Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 this mobile payment stuff is so frustrating especially when they're intentionally crippling it especially in places where it used to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Elizabeth Whitmire Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Lionel D It needs whatever phone number you put on your PayPal profile. I'm not using Google Voice, but I don't know why you couldn't use that number for PayPal. Or did you try already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Elizabeth Whitmire - there was a time where you couldn't verify GV numbers on PayPal (it didn't support short codes). Now it should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_L I Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Joseph Cappellino yes I think I did try it some time ago and ran into a stumbling block and gave up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
