Whether you want to use Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express to pay for your stuff, you may now do so with the use of only Google Wallet and your Android-powered mobile phone. Google has also introduced a remote lock feature that will let users disable devices that they no longer wish to use for future transactions. The update is available now for free through the Google Play Store.
