Google Pay is actually already supported in our country for a while, but only for making payments in Play Store.

For NFC payment, don't even think about it.

Seems like there's hope for Google Pay/Google Wallet to be available here.

In Google System Update support page, it shows that 22 new countries will be added to support Google Wallet on upcoming Google Play Services version v22.30, current version is at v22.29.13 and Google Wallet is still not available to download for Malaysia region yet.

The page might not show the latest changelog sometimes, they're probably working on something for the page, the latest folder should include July 2022 changelogs as shown on screenshot below. (credit to yenchenje for sharing on Apple Pay discussion thread)

Aside from that, Visa Thailand has stated that they're testing both Google Pay and Apple Pay in Thailand. With all the news of Apple Pay launching in Malaysia, Google Pay shouldn't be far unless we're skipped again.

On phone can download google wallet. Just that still not yet can use.
Shoppee added Google Pay as payment option

What I meant was not available to download on Play Store, usually only regions that have Google Wallet supported can download from there. biggrin.gif

Also, Google Pay is added on Shopee since 2021 because they're using iPay88 payment gateway which collaborated with Google to enable Google Pay for online merchants, not offline retail merchants.

On Google's support page for Google Wallet, Malaysia is listed on online payments but not for in store payments yet.

Apart seeing AP is now the talk of the town, would be really glad to also see GP launched and usable with MY FI cards. Fingers crossed!

Fingers crossed!

Both camps in Malaysia have been asking for it since ages ago, and it's about damn time we can finally use them, AP launching here is really a huge milestone for everyone of us. biggrin.gif

Ok just checked on Android Shopee based on RonanGow's post, and it is indeed there, has there been any news about iPay88 working on Google Pay integration? Or any local market integration?

Unfortunately can't screenshot the actual payment page with the card/gmail page due to security policy of Android. Maybe Shopee is just trying to integrate both AP/GP despite availability? Not sure..
Nvm googled and it seems like GP has been available from iPay88 since 2019, but only for payment terminal processing and not actual contactless (Wave) payment.. so ehhh?

According to history, iPay88 has actually implemented Google Pay back in 2019, however at that time it was only limited to purchases in Play Store.

But perhaps more importantly, I think we should look into whether the appearance of Google Pay in Malaysia's Shopee app occurred at the same time as Apple Pay. If true, chances could either be:

  - Google Pay would arrive in near future following Apple Pay's release
  - they accidentally toggled the Gpay option while updating the app to finally support AP

Even on Google's official page, there's conflicting information, supposedly it's supported in this list of countries but even in the app there's only 3 countries, if you're opening this using a Malaysian IP it does tell you above with a ribbon that says "Google Wallet isn't available in your country yet, but check back soon!"

Not saying the actual function but what the page is telling users that access it, I'm sure with a US/SG/IN issued card, with the right country set you can add it to Google Wallet and use contactless, despite not being in that country.

Here's the page opened on a Germany based VPS, the message is completely different from what is shown when opened in MY.

The Google Pay option in Shopee app has already appeared since the end of 2021, this is because of iPay88 collaboration with Google to enable Google Pay for online merchants. Hence, Shopee is using iPay88 as their payment gateway which is why there's such option.

I think there's not much speculations to be made for Google Pay at the moment until Google Wallet can be downloaded in our region because currently it's unavailable, the app can only be downloaded if Google Pay is in the particular region.

But judging from what Visa Thailand has said about that they're already testing both Apple Pay and Google Pay in their region, I'm still hopeful that it's the same case here and we'll see it happen in the near future.

Moving previous discussions here from Apple Pay thread for further references. biggrin.gif

Yeah I'm not sure what Google is doing here but, I've tried with one account being in Malaysia and one in the US for Google Pay and Google Wallet. Both has GPay and GWallet available for DL. But downloading Google Wallet turns the app into the old Google Pay app, and downloading GPay only has 3 regions, India, Singapore and United States. So not really sure how it's supposed to work

I've tried downloading Google Wallet from APKPure before, and the issue was the similar to your Malaysia account. Initally both Google Pay and Google Wallet appeared on the homescreen, but once I tapped Google Wallet, it disappeared and only Google Pay was showing, and then when I tapped on it the app opened and showed that "Google Pay is updating" something like that.

Seriously don't know what they're up to.

QUOTE(ericlaiys @ Aug 5 2022, 02:49 PM)
Yes. Malaysia region. Just download from google play

It's weird that you guys can download it but not for some, and just couple of hours ago I saw someone posted a screenshot on Amanz FB comment section showing Google Wallet running on an Oppo device with Bigpay card added.

I really hope it is an indication that Google Pay is really coming and they are pushing the app to users by stages.

I've tried using it with a different older build and it works again without the updating screen, looks like some people on reddit has the same issue, Google is really making everyone confused with whatever they're doing  rclxub.gif

This is when I feel Apple is superior, at least their implementation is straightforward and consistent. Unlike Google, from ditching Google Wallet for Google Pay and then reintroduce Google Wallet with Google Pay, and also having both apps separately running at the same time in some countries.

And for those countries that are chosen to only use Google Wallet, some are having troubles updating from Google Pay app.

What a mess. doh.gif

QUOTE(PoisonSoul @ Aug 7 2022, 10:02 AM)
Since when they are not? LOL
Anyways, still hoping if not at the same time, maybe in a month or two after AP is rolled out in MY, Google will see it as "wow, so good. We want a slice too!" and implement it here. But based on AP's track record, it took them 1-2 years to get it ready for prod so I'll be surprise if MY FI-s can churn GP out in a month or two with BxM approval unless, it's already in pilot testing phase.
*
I believe GP should be on the same track as AP, just that AP was quick in finalizing everything. I kinda doubt GP isn't on local FI's sight unless the people behind them are really not exposed enough to know that GP even exists, but since GP already has a presence here for online payments, it shouldn't be much far away for offline in-store payments, all it probably takes is just a nod from local FI's and they're all set.

The recent info of "added support to launch Google Wallet in 22 new countries" should be a hopeful hint, I'm willing to bet Malaysia and also Thailand are in the list.

most probably some exclusivity agreement between MBB and Apple

Currently no banks support both Apple Pay and Google Pay

Except for HSBC, who is already supporting APay and due to support GPay soon

Didn't notice until you mention it, seems like there's really some agreement going on.

Hopefully once HSBC supports Google Pay, it will be the same for other banks too.
