US cards network Discover has partnered with
Google Wallet and will now incorporate the application.

Cardholders will be able to link their cards
to the e-wallet directly from Discover website and the owners of
NFC compatible devices will be able to use their phones to make
contactless payments.

Discover director of mobile Sanjay Gosalia
said the partnership respond to changing consumer habits.

“Our cardholders regularly use their Discover
card to make purchases and payments online, in-store and now more
frequently through their mobile devices,” he said.

Discover is the latest card provider to join
the e-wallet, after earlier this month
Google upgraded the app to support all major credit and debit
cards.
