Adding each of the cards to Google Pay takes just a few moments: by pressing a button (“Add to G Pay”) in iCard digital wallet or directly through the Google Pay menu available in the settings of the Android device.
Fast payments?
Paying with Google Pay is quick and easy. To pay contactless, you only need to wake up your Android phone and hold it near the reader until a checkmark appears on the screen.
Secure payments?
iCard’s Google Pay service is using Visa’s tokenization technology. This technology replaces sensitive payment account information found on payment cards, such as the 16-digit account number, expiration date, and security code, with a unique digital identifier – “token”, that can be used to process payments without exposing actual account details.

Google Pay is a fast, simple way to pay at millions of places – on sites, in apps, and in stores. It brings together everything you need at checkout and protects your payment information with multiple layers of security.
