Set Up Google Wallet

This page explains how to configure Google Wallet so customers can add their Customer barcode/QR code (based on their store customer ID) to their wallet.

By enabling Google Wallet, customers can display their Customer barcode/QR code directly in the wallet app. This removes the need to log in to their account page just to show a code, providing a smoother checkout experience.

Requirements​

Themes where Google Wallet can be added:

  • Customer accounts (Recommended)
  • Legacy customer accounts with a theme that supports OS 2.0

Themes where Google Wallet cannot be added:

  • Legacy customer accounts with a theme that does not support OS 2.0

Configure Google Wallet — Common Settings​

Set up the following fields:

  • Card Title
  • Card Name
  • Barcode Type
  • Logo

Refer to the preview on the right side of the page to see how each field is reflected in Google Wallet.
