So far, Google Wallet for Wear OS has allowed you to make payments using credit or debit cards. Well, Google is now adding a new payment option to its digital wallet app for wearables.
Google has announced that Google Wallet for Wear OS now supports PayPal. Currently, the feature is live only in the United States and Germany. Expect the company to extend the support for PayPal in Google Wallet for Wear OS to other regions over the next few months. That means you can now pay using PayPal through Google Wallet on your Galaxy Watch 4, Galaxy Watch 5, and Galaxy Watch 6 series models.
To add PayPal as a payment method in Google Wallet on your Galaxy Watch, open the Google Wallet app on your wearable. If you have not added any payment method to the app yet, it will show you the plus icon. If you have added a payment method, scroll down, and you should be able to see the plus icon. Tap on this icon.

Your watch will then ask you to continue the setup on your phone. Once your phone brings up Google Wallet, tap on Add to watch, click on Payment card, and select PayPal. From there, follow the directions that the app shows. Once you complete the setup, you should be able to see PayPal as a payment option in Google Wallet on your Galaxy Watch.
