Think you can't add PayPal to Google Pay? Think again. There's now an easy way to spend freely with PayPal directly from your phone. The trick? Link your PayPal account to Curve.

How to Add PayPal to Google Pay

1. Download the Curve Wallet app: Start by downloading the Curve Wallet app and linking your PayPal account. Curve allows you to link not just PayPal but also all your debit and credit cards into one seamless app.

2. Add the Curve card to Google Wallet: Open the Google Wallet app on your Android device and add your Curve card as a payment method.

That’s how easy it is to add PayPal to Google Pay. But the benefits don’t stop there. Once you add PayPal to Google Pay through Curve, you can also earn and save as you spend. Curve offers up to 20% cashback from hundreds of top retailers, including up to 10% cashback every time you shop at places like Primark, Argos, IKEA, and more. Upgrade to a Curve premium plan, and you’ll earn cashback at up to 12 retailers of your choice, plus enjoy 1% cashback on all international spending outside Europe (coming Autumn '24). So, using PayPal with Google Pay isn’t just convenient—it’s also smart!

Use PayPal with Google Pay Abroad

Once you add PayPal to Google Pay via Curve, you can use it practically anywhere. One of the great things about Curve is that it eliminates foreign transaction fees abroad, whether from banks or credit cards. This means you can spend abroad with PayPal on Google Pay without worrying about extra charges. Plus, you can even use PayPal Credit while traveling if you need to spread out your payments. The possibilities are endless.

Benefits of adding PayPal to Google Pay via Curve 

When you link PayPal to your Curve Wallet, you unlock a range of benefits that you simply can't get with Google Pay alone. Here’s what sets Curve apart:

1. Go Back in Time®

Curve’s unique Go Back in Time® feature allows you to move past payments from one card to another up to 30 days after the transaction. This means if you’ve made a purchase with PayPal and later decide you’d rather have charged a different card, you can easily switch it over without hassle. Google Pay doesn’t offer this kind of flexibility, making Curve an essential tool for managing your finances more effectively.

2. Anti-Embarrassment Mode

Ever had a card declined at the checkout? Curve’s Anti-Embarrassment Mode ensures that doesn’t happen by automatically switching to a backup card if your primary card is declined. Whether you’re using PayPal, a credit card, or a debit card, you can shop with confidence knowing that Curve has you covered. This level of protection isn’t available with Google Pay on its own.

3. Enhanced Cashback Rewards

While Google Pay does offer some rewards, Curve takes it to another level with enhanced cashback offers. By linking PayPal to your Curve Wallet, you can earn up to 20% cashback at hundreds of retailers. And if you opt for a premium Curve plan, you’ll enjoy even more cashback opportunities, including 1% on all international spend outside Europe (coming Autumn '24). These rewards go above and beyond what you would receive with Google Pay alone.

4. Fee-Free Spending Abroad

Using Google Pay on its own can lead to foreign transaction fees when spending abroad. However, with Curve, you can link PayPal and spend internationally without worrying about those extra charges. This makes Curve the perfect companion for travel, ensuring you get the most out of your money wherever you go.

By linking PayPal to your Curve Wallet, you not only get the convenience of using Google Pay but also gain access to a suite of powerful features designed to enhance your financial experience. Whether it’s moving transactions, avoiding declines, earning more cashback, or saving on fees, Curve gives you benefits that Google Pay simply can’t match.
