- Check that they have a United States (US), Singapore (SG), or India (IN) phone number.
- Ask them to turn on the “Allow people to find you” setting, if they haven't.
Allow people to find you
- Open the new Google Pay app .
- At the top right of the Pay homepage , tap your profile picture or initial.

- Turn on Allow people to find you.
Tip: Once they turn on the setting in the new app, you can find them with their full phone number or email address.
