Google to Kill Google Wallet for Digital Goods

Google Wallet for Digital Goods will be closed down, according to an announcement from the company.

The service which was primarily used as a system for in-app purchases, allowed users to pay for items online with their Google Wallet account. Google said that “industry has matured a lot” since they introduced the service, colluding to the fact that there now exist a cavalcade of different systems for in-app purchases that can do the job just as good or better.

Users who still use Google Wallet for Digital Goods will continue to be able to make purchases, that’s until March 2nd 2015 when developers will be forced to stop using the API.
