Push Provisioning APIs & Issuer Console

Issuers can easily develop their own fully functional payment apps with the Google Pay API for Push Provisioning. This API lets issuers provision cards to Google Pay and perform common actions like:

• Set the default payment token.
• Delete a token from the wallet.
• Store the card on file (Unified Android Push Provisioning (UAPP) only).

Once the API is integrated, customers can use their credit or debit cards to pay in apps and in stores with an NFC-enabled device.
