To permanently end your Google Pay service, delete your information from Google Pay and close your Google payments profile. After you close your payments profile, you can't reopen it or find past transaction or payment method info. If you want to use Google Pay again, you can create a new payments profile.

- Your Google Pay transactions for goods & services on non-Google apps and websites (except for digital in-app purchases)

Step 2: Permanently close your Google payments profile

- Optional: If you have multiple profiles, go to pay.google.com and make sure you’re signed in to the profile you want to close.
- Go to the page where you can close your Google Payments profile.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
- When you transfer money to your bank account, it can take 1-3 business days. Debit card transfers are usually instant. When you transfer out money with a debit card, there is a fee of 1.5% or $.31 USD (whichever is higher).
This step affects data like:
- Credit cards, debit cards, and other payment methods saved for purchases on Google products and non-Google apps and websites
