Google Pay adds NFC contactless support in India

"We're committed to offer the most secure payments experience to our growing base of users, and tokenization helps tor replace sensitive data such as credit and debit card numbers with tokens, eliminating any chance of fraud," Sajith Sivanandan, business head, Google Pay and NBU, India, said in the report.
