New Apple Wallet vs. New Google Wallet: (Watch the Reveals)

Apple and Google both want to replace your traditional wallet with a smartphone. See how both companies are adding features to make it possible.

Both are great but Google definitely needs to work on marketing & making things more compelling.

Am I the only one who laughed when he said, data will be stored securely .... not even shared with Google. 😂

What I find funny is Google is always behind because they're keeping resetting apps if they would have kept the original Google wallet and improved over time from the original instead of resetting and restarting all over again multiple times all these passes IDs tickets and whatnot would have probably been implemented by like 2019 or 2020 but this is like the fourth wallet like app from Google so every time they reset companies feel less compelled to work with them just like their messenger app if they would have stuck with Hangouts it would have been the iMessage by now

All fun and games until your battery runs out of juice or your internet/data is down and you didn't bring your physical wallet with you 😂

Google wallet doesn’t even come close to Wallet.

Apple’s wallet app and experiences looks so much better than Google wallet. Also California needs to hurry up with digital driver’s licenses!

apple wallet is WAYYYY ahead of this tech. it's just much more useful.

What's annoying to me about Google Wallet is that you have to wake up the phone every time you want to use an NFC pass like a transit card or campus ID. For Apple Wallet you just have to hold the phone/watch to the reader.

Apple’s is more relaxing to watch with the music in the back lol

America is so lacking behind in digital life. Live in Australia, I never bring my wallet when going outside. Digital driver license is available for a while, and NFC AfterPay is accepted almost everywhere.

I mean, I would use Google Wallet, but at this point you never know when Google is gonna send the service to the graveyard.

States need to hurry up and get on-board -- CA and NY aren't even on the list yet that are working towards ID's on Apple Wallet. I'd like to get rid of the remaining physical cards. Implementation looks good with only showing key information without needing to unlock your phone. And Apple Pay Later is fantastic for those that need it; the other BNPL companies are clunky when integrated into websites because of the terms and conditions to sign-off on. For Apple Pay Later to be simple and straightforward of 4 payments over 6 weeks is (thankfully) very Apple. It'll be interesting how they'll evolve the payments space. Although I do think the international audience is due for some of those benefits, like Apple Card.

Samsung wallet has been years ahead Google but Apples is also a good ways away. Google has disappointed me for a few years now but the Samsung hardware keeps pulling me back in

People in comments fighting over which corporate overlords to serve is funny af

[PondersTech]

Been using Apple Wallet for years now and it keeps getting better. My partner doesn't have enough faith in Google's implementation to even try it on his Android phone.

I really like Apple’s wallet implementation. It is secure and works well. With Android you never really seem to know which phones support all the latest features.

‘In fact, these days there’s only two things I don’t leave my home without - my phone and my wallet. So the question is…’
Does this guy just like climbing through the window every time he returns home?

In India, we replaced physical wallet with UPI apps
All banks supports this UPI platforms. We don’t need to wait for updates. Completely safe and secure
Thanks to Indian Govt NCPI Project
