Google Wallet is losing access to PayPal (1.Viewing)

If you have a PayPal account linked to Google Wallet, you’ll need to swap to a credit or debit card instead.​

Wise took over from Paypal for me, I cancelled my PayPal after they did some stupid shit a few years ago and quite honestly I was tired of the charge backs and insane fees. Once you truly look around in wise you begin to understand, they give me actual foreign bank accounts where I can keep money in local currencies circumventing conversion fees. I usually leave most accounts funded because I use them to pay out of in local currencies as well.

If I go to Mexico I simply make a virtual card using the local currency. I put 1k on the card and it can never be used for more. If I have a shady merchant after I pay I close the virtual card, hit a button make another and transfer the funds to that card.

If my hotel room is $450 I give them the card, after that I can lock or remove the virtual card and they cannot charge another item.

If I get a shady subscription that does auto pay and it's hard to cancel, I make a virtual card, giver it to them, cancel the card when I don't want another charge.

Wise does things nothing else will do, if you ever truly look at them you cannot go back to something else.
