Google is soon going to make it easier for you to shop online, with its new electronic payments system.
The search company's new Pay with Google payment system lets you make purchases quickly from a wide variety of websites. Think PayPal, but powered by Google.
If you use an Android phone or Chrome browser to access one of the participating vendors, you won't need to enter your credit card number – Google will simply automatically send your billing information to the vendor.
At launch, Pay with Google works with fifteen major apps, including Yelp, Eat24, Kayak, and Postmates, with Airbnb, Papa John's, and StubHub coming soon. Google is also working with payment providers, including Stripe and Braintree, to make it easier for developers who already use these services to also work with Pay with Google.
The feature was first introduced in May, where Google also mentioned that it would be compatible with and help promote customer loyalty programs.
