Your card and personal information always remain private.
• Your number isn’t stored on your device or on Google servers.
• Your number is never shared with the person or retailer you’re paying – a unique, encrypted account number is used instead.
• Your payment information is protected with multiple layers of security.
• Only you can pay with your phone. Google Pay only works when your device is unlocked with your fingerprint, pattern, or PIN – so no one else can pay with your phone but you.
However you choose to pay, we take fraud protection very seriously.
• We look for any unusual activity and take steps to protect your account.
• View your Google Pay transactions in the card app, and see the last ten transactions made on your device in the Google Wallet™ app.
• If your phone is ever lost or stolen, you can lock and erase it with Google Find My Device.
