Rainforest now supports Google Pay for both devices and online payments

Digital wallets are no longer just a "nice-to-have" payment option. Today, they're how customers expect to pay, whether they're tapping a phone at checkout or making a payment online.

In fact, digital wallets are now the fastest-growing way North American consumers pay online, accounting for 39% of online purchases today. And 65% of American adults use a digital wallet on a monthly basis, at minimum. 

This pattern goes for the vertical SaaS platforms as well. In our latest 2026 Vertical SaaS Embedded Payments Benchmarking Study, our data found that platforms offering digital wallets see a median payments adoption of 63%, compared to 48% for platforms that don't.

It’s simple. If your merchants' customers can't pay with the wallet already sitting in their pocket, some of them won't pay at all. Or they'll look for a way to pay outside of your platform. And let’s not even go there. 

And now, Rainforest is making sure your merchants never miss that opportunity. 

Rainforest now supports Google Pay for both device (in-person) and online payments!

Your merchants will still get paid through the same embedded experience you already use for card, ACH, PayPal, Pay Later, Venmo, and Apple Pay.

Google Pay is now available for online payments

Rainforest has always supported Google Pay for in-person, device-based payments. But now, that same support extends to online checkout.

One wallet, every channel

Whether your merchants’ customer is paying at the counter, on a mobile device, or completing an online checkout, they can now pay with Google Pay with ease. 

And your merchants can accept payments without juggling separate providers or bolt-on integrations. 

Built for easy acceptance

Your merchants’ customers don't think in terms of "online" vs. "in-person". 

They just want to pay quickly, with a method they already trust.  Google Pay support across both channels means your merchants meet customers wherever they are.

Same Rainforest. Same experience. 

Onboard once for every payment method

Merchants complete a single onboarding flow to unlock all available payment methods like card, ACH, Apple Pay, PayPal, Pay Later, Venmo, and now Google Pay. 

No separate application. No extra KYC step. No additional portal for your team or your merchants to manage.

Unified reporting, penny-perfect reconciliation

Google Pay shows up alongside every other payment method in the same reporting view. Sort and filter into every payment with unified reporting. 

A single daily or weekly deposit and with penny-perfect reconciliation. No separate data pipeline required.

The same components and API you already use

Same components and API you already use with Rainforest. And everything you built for other payment methods will work the same way with Google Pay. 

All of this, with just a few lines of code. 

Capture more volume on your platform 

Adding Google Pay isn't just about checking a box for another payment method. It’s about capturing even more volume on your platform. 

• Trusted checkouts experience: your merchants’ customers pay with the wallet they’re already familiar with, in-person or online
• More volume on your platform: fewer reasons for their customers to look elsewhere
• Less operational overhead: one onboarding flow, one API, one reconciliation process for every payment method
