Google Pay

Google Pay is a payment method that allows you to make contactless payments using your Android phone. This method allows you to pay quickly and easily.

You can use Google Pay if you are an ABN AMRO personal customer with an ABN AMRO current account or an account holder or authorized representative of an ABN AMRO business current account. Also, you have a Google account and you are aged 16 or over. The age limit (16 years or older) for Google Pay in the Netherlands is set by Google.

You can use Google Pay on the following devices:
