Overview
- PayPal told Heise that nothing changes for customers, with new links and phone transfers still allowed and in‑store use limited to Germany and the United States.
- Earlier reports cited a Google support page that warned Wallet‑linked PayPal accounts would stop working and be deleted on June 16, which raised alarm among users.
- PayPal has removed the German FAQ entry that described an end to Google Wallet connections and now points to instructions on adding PayPal instead.
- Google’s support page still displays the cutoff wording, PC‑WELT reported, leaving users with conflicting signals from the two companies.
- People who use Wallet for tap‑to‑pay and smartwatches, including many customers of Germany’s Sparkassen banks, can also pay in stores through the PayPal Android app or their bank’s app if needed.
