TL;DR
- Last month, we spotted Google Wallet working on support for “Traveler QR.”
- That’s now arriving with this week’s Google Play services update.
- The system supports payments through Alipay Plus in Southeast Asia.
Last month, we spotted Google working on “Traveler QR,” a new Wallet payment option for the Alipay Plus network in Southeast Asia, and now it looks like it’s finally arriving.
Google Play services version 26.44 starts heading out to Android users today, and in its release notes, Google shares that Traveler QR support is going live in Wallet. We already saw Google’s Traveler QR documentation appear online, and it felt like just a matter of time before the feature would get its official debut.
