Google Wallet may let you add a card just by NFC tapping it to your Android phone, instead of scanning or manually entering card information

April 29, 2025 //  by Finnovate

Google appears to be working on a new feature that would allow users to add a credit card to Google Wallet simply by tapping the card to their phone. The current process of adding a card to Google Wallet typically involves either scanning or manually entering card information, then going through some sort of verification with your bank. It’s not a difficult process, but it’s one that Google seemingly wants to simplify by letting you add a card by tapping it to your phone.  Code added to the latest Google Play Services update directly explains a process in which you “hold your card” to the back of your phone, using NFC to add it to Wallet. This new code was apparently found alongside the existing “Add payment method” screen, taking out any doubt that it’s for anything but adding a new payment card to the app. Presumably, users will still need to verify with their banking institution and complete other steps, but this would provide a quick and easy way to end the card information. It’s also a fairly familiar process as some banking apps, the Capital One app as one example, use NFC to interact with physical cards.
