Summary

• Google Wallet has added support for 29 new banks.

Google Wallet brings the convenience of a digital wallet to the pockets of millions. It allows users to store and use bank cards, passes, keys, tickets, and IDs, and access them with a simple click of a button.

Several major retailers in the US accept payments via Google Wallet, including stores for sporting goods, books, games, grocery stores, restaurants, gas stations, and more, and the tech giant is pushing hard to bring driver’s licenses into the Wallet.

To make the wallet more appealing to a larger subset of people, Google Wallet has added support for new banks each month, with more than 170 new banks added this year alone. Now, the tech giant is at it again, and we’ve found the names of 29 new banks that just got added to the Google Wallet support page:
