Google Wallet
Google Wallet is the default Android tap-to-pay app, free to use in the countries on Google's supported list, storing payment cards alongside transit, loyalty and event passes. It charges no fee of its own, deferring to your card's terms, but sending money to friends is only offered in India and Singapore. The natural everyday wallet for Android users.
Výhody
- Free to use — Google charges no fee
- Stores cards, transit, loyalty & event passes
- Tokenized payments for added security
Nevýhody
- No own account or balance in most markets
- Sending money to friends only in India and Singapore
- Feature set varies widely by country
Payz
Payz is the rebrand of ecoPayz, one of the oldest e-wallets (since 2000), run by FCA-regulated PSI-Pay and offering 45+ currencies worldwide with a Mastercard and a tiered VIP programme. Its standout is a ~2.99% FX rate, undercutting Skrill and Neteller, though the best perks and the card are gated behind VIP tiers. A dependable, slightly cheaper alternative for everyday multi-currency use.
Výhody
- Long track record (ecoPayz since 2000)
- Lower ~2.99% FX than Skrill/Neteller
- Supports 45+ currencies worldwide
Nevýhody
- Best rates & card gated behind VIP tiers
- Card requires Silver VIP+ status
- Rebrand from ecoPayz still confuses users
Záverečné zhrnutie
Celkovo sa Google Wallet dostáva dopredu so skóre 4.3 oproti 3.5 — no správna voľba závisí od vašich priorít. Pred rozhodnutím porovnajte obe s vašou vlastnou krajinou a využitím.
