Google Assistance may confirm payments with voice confirmation
By MYBRANDBOOK
A new Voice feature was rolled onto Google Assistant that enables the company’s virtual assistant to recognise users’ voices better. Google is taking this a step further by leveraging this technology for payments.
According to a report, the company is testing a new feature on Google Assistant that would allow users to make payments by using simple voice commands. Google in a statement to the publication has confirmed that the feature is a part of an early but limited pilot program that would allow users to make purchases via their Google Assistant powered devices in a handful of categories.
As of now, the feature seems to be working with Google’s in-app digital purchases via Play Store and restaurant orders.
Meanwhile, Google has also updated the support document that gives a step-by-step account of how to use this feature. “When you authorize payments with Voice Match, you can make purchases with your Google Assistant, like in-action upgrades through Google Play digital goods,” the support page reads.
Google hasn’t made an announcement regarding the availability of this feature yet. But it is possible that this feature will pop up at the company’s annual developers conference, I/O 2020, later this month.
