Google Pay is the company's one-stop shop for everything related to your finances. It is a very powerful service if you use all its functions. A useful feature is the ability to add your bank or credit card to track expenses.
The financial characteristic is equivalent in concept to services such as mint and Simplifi. Connect Google Pay to your bank account or credit card and the service will track your expenses and provide you with information. If you are already a Google Pay user, it also makes sense to do it in the Google Pay application.
