During a discussion at the conference for developers, Google has also presented a project in development: Android Hands Free Pay.

The Android app Pay will allow users to register a bank account and a credit card, either manually or using the camera to scan a map. The information is stored securely, requiring a password for access. When M Android hits the market, unlocking by fingerprints on devices with such a sensor is available.

Once implemented, users will be able to use their Android device to pay for goods at participating stores. All you have to do is hold your smartphone near the payment terminal to start the licensing process. No need to open the application.

Loyalty cards will also be supported in the Android Pay application. Users can enter their loyalty card information in the application. Then, each time you use it, the application will automatically update when you hold your device close to the payment terminal.

Google Android Pay demonstrated by showing the launch of a new rewards program with Coke named MyCoke. When buying a soda in one of the compatible ATMs, you can use your smartphone to actually pay the drink, but also receive points.

Android Pay will also be compatible with banking applications . When you log in to the application from your bank, there will be a new button at the bottom of the screen. Press "Add Android to Pay?" To automatically store your account information in the payment application (of course, you need to enter your password).

Android Pay will not only be available for use in the shop. It will also work within compatible commercial applications. When you are ready to pay for something in a compatible application, press the button "Pay with Android." You can also select a card other than the default if you store multiple credit bank cards in the Android Pay application.

I know what you think. What happened to Google Wallet? I thought the same thing. Fortunately, Google responded to this question. Once the apple pay applications hit the market, Google Wallet will be updated to exclusively operate as a payment application to send and receive money personally. All other features will migrate to Android Pay. The future is Hands Free.

According to Google, Hands Free means that users will be able to enter a shop, seize their property, and simply say, "I would like to pay using Android." Obviously, this is still a concept, but the idea is that the computer of the body is able to identify a customer nearby and access to payment information. Technology will certainly close the NFC.

Pay Android will be available with the release of Android million in the third quarter of 2015. Hands Free is planned to be launched as a pilot project with some San Francisco stores later this year. Nothing was mentioned for expansion in other continents.
