We've known about Google Wallet for awhile but, until today, it hasn't been available for use. If you've got an Android phone with near-field communication (NFC) technology, you can now make use of the Google Wallet smartphone app to store all sorts of things. They've launched a digital credit card with Citibank already, but you can create a virtual credit card with the app and fund it from other sources. Either way you'll be able to pay by tapping your phone anywhere NFC payments are accepted. Additionally, you can store loyalty cards, product offers, and more. As an added bonus, Google will give you $10 on their pre-paid virtual credit card if you set up Google Wallet before the end of the year.
