Google Wallet is losing access to PayPal

If you have a PayPal account linked to Google Wallet, you’ll need to swap to a credit or debit card instead.

Google Wallet will soon no longer let you pay with your PayPal account in the US. On a help center page spotted by Android Authority, Google says it will stop supporting the payment method and automatically delete linked PayPal accounts on June 13th, 2025.

The company has also stopped letting users link PayPal accounts to Wallet as of April 11th. Now, users who previously relied on PayPal to quickly connect their payment methods with Google Wallet will have to manually add a credit card, debit card, or bank information if they want to keep using the app.

Google notes that it will still accept PayPal-branded debit cards. “To deliver smart, flexible, and more rewarding ways to pay, PayPal constantly improves their offerings,” Google writes in a FAQ, while referring users to an email sent by PayPal.

The Verge reached out to PayPal with a request for more information but didn’t immediately hear back.

If you use a linked PayPal account for recurring payments, Google says you’ll need to change your payment method on the merchant’s website to keep using the service. Google Wallet will also no longer display your PayPal transaction history, which you’ll now have to view on PayPal’s website or app. Google Wallet’s PayPal integration will still work for users in Germany.

PayPal first rolled out support for Google Wallet — then called Android Pay — in 2017. Its rival digital wallet also continues to evolve, with the PayPal app adding tap-to-pay on iPhones in Germany and rolling out a way for groups to pool money.
