[News] How to install the Covid Certificate in Google Pay to always have it available

Do you want to have your Covid Certificate in Google Pay? Well, it is simpler than it seems: we will tell you how to save the QR in your account to always have it available on all your phones, also on your watches with Wear OS. The Covid Certificate is not mandatory to travel or to move around destinations, but it is convenient to request it in order to speed up travel-related procedures (including access to restaurants and other places of entertainment). Requesting the Covid Certificate from the mobile phone does not involve complications, nor does downloading the certificate to the phone in order to present it from the screen. And there is an even more complete way to have it on Android: add it to Google Pay.

 

 

Google announced the upcoming availability of the Certificate in the Android payments app, but that feature hasn't arrived yet. Even so, it is not difficult to download the QR to Google Pay: it is a process that is carried out in a few steps and without the need to be excessively complicated. For this we will use an intermediary app.

 

Since Google Pay does not yet allow the incorporation of the certificate's QR directly (it can be entered as a loyalty card, but it removes part of the code when creating said card), an application such as Pass2Pay can be used to solve this problem. We have tested the process with several Covid Certificates and we can guarantee that it works correctly.

 

1)You must download Pass2Pay to your Android. It is an application that is responsible for creating cards suitable for Google Pay, either from a Passbook file or from scratch.

 

2)Download the PDF of your Covid Certificate to your mobile. You can also capture the QR code as an image.

 

3)Open Pass2Pay and choose the option you want. You can use "Open PDF" if you downloaded the Certificate in that format or "Open image" if you saved the QR capture.

 

4)Upload the file you need and accept the text identification: Pass2Pay will locate the QR code and use it as a Google Pay card.

 

After the process, you will already have your Covid Certificate saved in Google Pay. It is possible to carry out all the steps without an Internet connection except for the generation of the pass, that point does need access to the network. You can delete Pass2Pay once you have created (and saved) the Google Pay card.
