Google Pay cannot directly be used for international transactions in the sense of currency exchange between two countries. However, you can use Google Pay internationally with participating retailers that accept Google Pay as a form of payment in the country you're visiting. Make sure to have a credit or debit card linked to your Google Pay account that's accepted worldwide. Prioritize checking the local compatibility and transaction fees to ensure a smooth payment experience while abroad.
