Google Pay
Google Pay allows customers to complete payments quickly using the cards stored in their Google account. Zotlo supports Google Pay in both Merchant of Record (MoR) and Connected PSP models, depending on your PSP’s capabilities.
This page explains setup requirements, domain review, supported platforms, and activation steps.
Availability Requirements
Google Pay is shown at checkout only when the customer meets Google’s requirements:
Device: Android device or any device running Chrome
Browser: Chrome
Region: Google Pay supported country
Card: Supported card network (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, etc.)
Zotlo automatically hides Google Pay if any requirement is not met.
Activation Required
Google Pay is not enabled by default. To activate Google Pay for your project:
Add the domain(s) where you want to use Google Pay in the Zotlo Dashboard and submit an activation request.
Your domain must then go through Google’s domain review process, which Zotlo manages on your behalf.
Once the review is completed by Google and activation is finalized, enable Google Pay in the specific sales interface you want to use (embedded checkout or hosted options).
Note: Google Pay will not appear unless the domain has been activated and Google Pay is enabled in the chosen interface.
Domain Review
Google Pay requires every domain that will use Google Pay to pass a Google-managed domain review.
Zotlo submits your domain to Google and manages the entire review process for hosted checkout, sales links and embedded checkout. No action is required on your side.
Once the review is approved by Google, the domain becomes eligible for Google Pay.
