Google Pay is one of the most sought-after and trustworthy online payment apps. It can help anyone to receive and send money anytime. This includes transferring and collecting money from local stores, family, friends and third-party apps.
The payments you make through Google Pay have stored proof of these transactions on the application itself.

This proof is visible in the Google Pay app under the Show my transactions section.
