I am planning to get a Pixel Watch 3. How would I add cards to it? Currently when I try to add a card to Google Wallet, it fails with an error message.

    abdullah I would think you would need to add the card to the watch but Im not sure if you need a device on stock to set up the payment menthod

      As an option for now, I've put a bank card on the back of my phone case inside. Yeh I hope we get an alternative 🤞🤷

      Hello all!

      Why can't I use Google Wallet? It seems to be broken. Can someone explain in non-technical terms?
      Also, wow. Has this been an issue for over 2 years?

      My understanding is: The Google API is insecure, so GrapheneOS chooses not to support it. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

      Perhaps the Google implementation is insecure... can we like, lobby them, pester them to fix it, or keep this post open to track the resolution? Since it may not be GrapheneOS's "fault" for choosing to be more secure, but it's certainly still an issue.

        No, Googles attestation being insecure is not why GOS cannot pass said attestation, its because its not authenticated to do so.

        GOS cannot pass Play Integrity API as GOS isn't authenticated to do so by Google. They would need to whitelist GOS or make an API that doesn't require approval from Google.

        Its fully Googles choice and there is a good chance they will never allow GOS to pass the Play Integrity API

          Google Pay with NFC still doesn't work I guess ?
          Anyone tried recently ?

            OfflinePuffin No. Only supports contactless payments on Huawei phones I believe. Fortunately I have a Garmin watch so I added my Curve card to Garmin pay on my watch and that works great even when using Gadgetbridge instead of Garmin Connect. So that has been my solution.

              Samething happened to me. I bought the Pixel 9 Pro with the Pixel Watch 2 last month. When I was setting up the device, I managed to add the cards I tried. Now I have tried to add a new one, and as you said "Verification window (when you enter card details and billing address) just closes when I press "Continue" button and returns back to "Add a payment method"."

                  I have solved the problem by using a cheap Swatch-Watch with SwatchPAY. The app runs on GOS but is not required for the process itself. The Watch works even without Battary and is always with me. But doesn't trak anything. So I always can pay with NFC. The only little downside: I must use my PIN more often, but that's not really an issue.

                  5rlyn No, it was not that.
                  Haven't tested properly but I think it works now.
