Google Pay is a digital wallet
that lets you tap your Android device to make card payments in-store, in apps or online.
Note: Google pay is not supported on some Huawei devices and iPhones in South-Africa at this time.
Go to the Google Play Store and search Google Wallet, if the app is not installed, tap Install.
Note: The app is not compatible with some older versions of the Android operating system. If you can see it on the Google Play Store it means your device is compatible.
Note: Retailers reserve the right to accept or decline contactless payments.
You can add our Debit Card, Credit Card or Virtual Card to Google Pay using Google Wallet on an Android device.
To get started:
No. Google Pay works for most contactless payments, but some payments still need a physical card. You can Tap to Pay with Google Pay on supported Android devices anywhere contactless payments are accepted.
You’ll still need your physical card for things like cash withdrawals or at stores that don’t support Tap to Pay.
No. You don’t need internet for most in‑store payments.
Google Pay supports offline payments for in‑store purchases. You can make up to 10 contactless payments before you need to reconnect to the internet. You only need mobile data or internet to set up Google Pay and add cards.
No. We don’t charge a fee for using Google Pay on local payments, and Google Pay is free to use.
Yes. You can use Google Pay internationally on Android devices wherever contactless payments are supported.
Before you travel or shop online internationally, make sure your personal details (contact number, address and permits) are up to date on your Personal or Business Banking Account. This information is required for Balance of Payments reporting to the South African Reserve Bank (SARB). If it’s missing, your card may be suspended.
