Google announced that children with Android phones in select countries can now use Google Wallet for in-store payments with parental consent and supervision. This feature allows kids to access not only payment methods but also digital passes like event tickets. Parents will receive email notifications for transactions, and they can use the Family Link app to manage their child's access and track purchases. However, payments for online purchases remain restricted. This move positions Google competitively against Apple, which has already adopted similar features.
With Google Wallet, children aged 13 and up can now tap to pay at stores, offering a monitored way for parents to allow digital payments.
Parents can supervise payments through their Google Account, receiving notifications for transactions and managing access with the Family Link app.
