The Google card and associated checking account will allow users to buy things with a card, mobile phone or online. The card will be co-branded with different bank partners, including CITI and Stanford Federal Credit Union.
We’re exploring how we can partner with banks and credit unions in the US to offer smart checking accounts through Google Pay, helping their customers benefit from useful insights and budgeting tools, while keeping their money in an FDIC or NCUA-insured account. Our lead partners today are Citi and Stanford Federal Credit Union, and we look forward to sharing more details in the coming months.
