Google Wallet Adds 10-Item Wear OS Payment History on Android

2 articles · Updated · 9to5Google · Jul 3

Summary

  • Google Wallet on Android phones now shows NFC payment history from Wear OS watches inside each saved card’s transaction list, expanding a view that previously covered only phone purchases.
  • The details page labels those entries as “Purchase made on watch” beneath the date and time, and the change appears to apply retroactively to earlier watch transactions.
  • The update makes users less reliant on the wearable app for payment tracking, though Google still caps visible history at 10 transactions per payment method.
  • Google first teased the feature in January alongside plans to show transactions from other devices and online purchases made with virtual card numbers.
