Angela B.: Hi. My name is Angel, and I'm currently running a digital marketing business. It is just me, myself and I, and Google Pay, out of one to five, I would give it, I would say so far, a five rating. Before I started using Google Pay, I was using PayPal mostly, and that was more for my e-commerce business. But when I got into a little bit more selecting payments from people all over the place, Google Pay started to work a little bit better for that. Plus, I was able to store all my cards, anything I needed. If I'd forgot a card at home, I was good to go. Everything was right there at Google Pay, and I could just go ahead and just show my phone and pay and help it to work. I chose Google Pay, firstly, because I've had Gmail account forever and just started to build my platforms with them. I've got all of their different software in my computer, I store everything, my photos and all of that, and they've always been a secure company so far to me, and so I felt that I could trust them with my information, at least as much as we can. Getting started with Google Pay was fairly simple. At first, I had a little bit of issues finding exactly the page to get to, to find my wallet and to start inserting things. But after a few tries, it became second nature. For anybody with specifically an Android device, I would say that Google Pay is very similar to Apple Pay would be to an Apple or iOS device, so I would think that it would be the top choice for anybody to have on their phone for an e-wallet.
