Google Pay allows you to manage multiple bank accounts for seamless transactions. But what if you want to change the account that receives money by default? Here’s a quick guide on how to change or Remove your bank account in Google Pay, applicable to both Android and iPhone/iPad users.

Important Note: Updating existing bank account information isn’t directly possible. You must remove the old account and re-add it with the updated details.

Steps to Remove a Bank Account

  1. Open the Google Pay app.
  2. Tap your profile picture in the top right corner.
  3. Select “Bank account“.
  4. Choose the account you want to remove.
  5. Tap on “More” (three dots) and then “Remove account”.

Setting a Bank Account as Primary

  1. Open the Google Pay app.
  2. Tap your profile picture in the top right corner.
  3. Select “Bank account“.
  4. Instead of removing it, choose the account you want to set as primary.
  5. Tap on “Set as primary account” at the bottom of the page (Android) or “More” (three dots) > “Set as primary account” (iPhone/iPad).

That’s it! Your chosen account will now be the default one for receiving money sent through Google Pay.

Important Notes

  • Money received through Google Pay gets deposited into your primary account.
  • Before removing an account, ensure you have the updated information for the new primary account ready to be added.

Following these steps ensures your desired bank account becomes the primary receiving point for any money sent through Google Pay.
