Find items to buy

Explore what you can buy with the Google Assistant.

Step 1: Get personal results

Some Google Assistant devices, like speakers, TVs, and Smart Displays, can be shared with multiple people. For shared devices, when this setting is on, your Google Assistant can help you with payments.

Tip: If you’ve already bought items, go to "Step 3: Shop for items."

On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app .
At the bottom, tap Home Settings .
Under “Features,” tap Google Assistant Personal results.
Edit settings.

Step 2: Set up payments

On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app .
At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial Assistant settings.
Under "You," tap Payments.
Follow the steps to set your payment and delivery info.

Tip: If you have Pay with your Assistant turned on and personal results turned on, you can make purchases on your shared device. If you turn off either of them, you can’t make purchases on your shared device.

Step 3: Shop for items

Near your speaker, say "Talk to [app]." Here are examples of what you can purchase in some actions:
- A sword that gives you more power in a game.
- A key that unlocks more features of an action.
- Virtual currency that you can use for purchases.
Say what you'd like to subscribe to or buy. The action might also ask if you'd like to buy something based on your interaction. For example:
- In Headspace, you can say "Subscribe" to buy a monthly or yearly subscription.
- In King for a Day, you can say "Expansion pack" to buy more lives.
Answer any questions to choose and finish your purchase.
If you’ve set up "Purchase approvals" in Google Assistant, you’ll approve your purchase with either your password, fingerprint, face, or Voice Match on your phone. Learn how to approve purchases with your fingerprint, face, or Voice Match.

Contact an action’s developer

Most actions on Google Assistant are made by companies other than Google. Contact an action developer if:

An action isn’t working.
A purchase isn’t working or what you expected.
You want to learn more about how to use an action.

To contact the action developer:

On your computer, go to assistant.google.com/explore.
Browse or search for the action.
Locate and select the action to open the detail page.
Review the contact information listed.

What to say when you contact the developer

When you contact the developer, let them know:

The action you’re using. Examples include "Headspace."
The issue you’re having. Such as "My purchase didn’t come through," or "the action isn’t working properly when I open it."
The response you’d like. For example, mention whether you’d like help fixing the issue or would like a refund for your purchase.

What to expect when contacting an action developer

You should expect a courteous and professional response when you contact a developer about an issue. If your inquiry is about a problem with a purchase you made, you should expect a response within three business days.
