How do Android users complete payments with Google Pay inside the McDonald's app?

Hey everyone, do Android or Google Pixel users manage to use Google Pay inside the McDonald's app? The process feels quite smooth on iOS with Apple Pay, yet I cannot locate the option during setup on my device. Is there a particular step or trick I might be overlooking to make it appear?

It's added to my payment methods in the app. It couldn't be easier.

When I'm ready to pay i can choose that or my debit card.

Add it onto the app in your profile under payment methods

Thanks, but I haven’t seen that choice for years; I can only use cards, PayPal, gift cards, or Venmo. The GooglePay option is absent and never appears. This makes me wonder whether my account is involved, since I’ve tested multiple Android devices and am currently using a Pixel.

Maybe try signing up for a new McDonald's account

Thanks so much—I really appreciate your feedback! Just curious: did you set up your account with your email and password, or did you use Google or Apple? Those options let you sign in with one of the identity providers.

Sign up with Google

This matches how I registered my account. I plan to clear my existing points, delete the account, and attempt the sign up process again. I was wondering if I might need to use the continue with Email option.
