Use of the Google Pay product name in text

You can use text to indicate to the user that their boarding pass, event or transit ticket, loyalty card, gift card, or offer has been saved to their device.

Capitalize the letters "G" and "P"

Always use an uppercase "G" and an uppercase "P" followed by lowercase letters to refer to Google Pay. Don't capitalize the full name "GOOGLE PAY" unless it's to match the typographic style in your UI.

Don't abbreviate Google Pay

Always write out the words "Google" and "Pay."

Match the style in your UI

Set "Google Pay" in the same font and typographic style as the rest of the text in your UI. Do not mimic Google's typographic style.

Don't translate Google Pay

Always write "Google Pay" in English. Do not translate it to another language.
