I had previously been using Google Wallet on my EVO lte and had a balance of $1.12. Well I got my nexus 7 yesterday and when I updated and then activated my Google Wallet on the nexus I was given a new Google prepay card number and another $10.00.
I was under the impression it was one card per Google account. Anybody else get this?

Your provided funds (ie money you loaded into the account) should be tied to your Google wallet account assigned to your email account.
The promotional funds are not.

I'm not sure about that I have three devices in front of me, all three have different user id's. Shooting from the hip each device gets their own prepaid card. Odd I know but a call to Google wallet will transfer funds you loaded on one phone and move them to the new device.
An oversight on googles part

so the only way to move the money around between the different wallets debit cards is by calling Google, or there is some way to do it in the app or on the web?

Google wallet is kind of a mess. I don't think that there is any synchronization between your online account and your devices. My buddy that works for google couldn't talk about it because apparently its something they are working on.
No but it works out when they give free money away. I got $15 from my Galaxy Nexus and $10 with my N7.
It will also give you more money when you root and switch to a custom rom the first time. So $50 free if you time it right.
That's alot of free lunches at McDonald's.

It will say this if you are rooted. Yes.
But it does NOT affect functionality.
Wallet will work just fine.
That rooted message is just a Google disclaimer.
I'm rooted and running CM10 and I used it today no problem.
It says its an unsupported device because you are rooted and they won't be held accountable if some app empties your wallet. It still works great though. Google paid for my lunch yet again!

Yes..
do you have a credit card with the little 'wifi' symbol on it (not sure what it's called).. this means your actual credit card has a NFC chip in it.
i have a Chase card, which has this.
every time i lay my Galaxy Nexus on top of my wallet, the NFC Reader app (market) i have installed, picks it up right away.
Works on mine. Took a long time to finish setting up.

Pasting my own post from another forum:
-----------------------
I have rooted and unlocked my Nexus 7, and yes, when setting google wallet after all that, I did get my $10 prepaid credit, and then I updated to the latest Google wallet version that allows you to register any type of credit card (visa, amex, etc). Which I did.
I went to the store just with the intention to pay with my tabblet, and it worked!!! And yes, I also got the "unsupported warning" for being rooted, but that does not stop the app from working perfectly. The selected card for that transaction was the credit card I registered, and I didn't have an internet connection for the transaction to be completed succesfully (very cool).
I haven't done a transaction with the prepaid $10 credit yet, but it should be no problem since I think it's even less complex than what I did above.

quick question do you have the wallet app open when you are checking out cause the when i tried it didn't work but it worked perfectly fine at MD and a vending machine so i dont know if its the store card reader or what
Well, can anyone explain why, on my Nexus 7 and HTC EVO LTE, both our which are rooted, Wallet used to at least open, but after this update I just get an error: sorry, wallet does not yet run on this device and on your mobile network"?
Two different devices, two different manufacturers, same error.

Los Angeles. It ran before this update, so it's hard to imagine my location has anything to do with it.
I did find a few posts on other sites, like Android forums and AT&T's, for the same issue. Since nobody has complete info, we're all coming to different conclusions.
On AT&T's forum, they think it won't run because Wallet only has an agreement with Sprint. Obviously, my nexus 7 dispels that theory.
People on Verizon are speculating the same thing.
I've tried uninstalling both the update, and the entire app.
I've tried temporarily turning off root.
Still no workie.

Hi Guys,
I am planning to buy the Nexus 7. My friend will buy it from US, activate it so that I will get the free credit and sent it over to me in India.
I understand I wont be able to use Movies, Books etc.
But will I be able to use the free credit to buy apps in India?????
Depends on the copyright the application creators allow. In most cases, yes.
Ok I will clarify a little more. I am not asking about any region limited apps. Will I be able to use the credit to buy apps in Indian play store? Or is the free credit valid within US only?
Thanks

I was in Canada when I bought my Nexus 7, and travelled to the US. While there, I did buy some apps, though I was not allowed to use their Magazines and Music store. It knew I was Canadian, but gave me access to apps on the American store (like NBC Olympics). You'd probably have similar luck.
And it's a great tablet anyway, even without the Play Store credit. Don't be disappointed if it doesn't work.
Though I wonder if MarketEnabler would get it to work if it doesn't. I'm just confident that you'll be fine.

I don't think using the credit is a problem rather getting a credit is a problem as Google would require a US credit carded added in your wallet account before you activate your free credit.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I got that one covered. My friend would buy it activate using my Id and his card and then sent it over to me.
Another doubt. Can I still use the credit even after the card which was used to activate the device is removed from my wallet account?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using xda app-developers app
yes i've done exactly that, i used my brothers credit card details to get the free credit and then deleted his card from my payment options.. still have the 25 dollars play store credit.. its there like its own gift voucher card

Yes, no problem with that.
A different method to get the credit!
Well I tried another method of getting Play store credit. Using this method I was able to achieve it all. And I find that this connects with VPN with more speed rather than configuring using on device VPN connection.
I did following to get the $25 credit plus Google Movies, Music, Wallet, Books and Magzines too
1. Download Spotflux and install it. (a Free and best VPN solution)
2. Download Connectify and install it.
3. Share Spotflux connection using Connectify
4. Rest your Nexus 7 tablet
5. Connect using the newly created WiFi hotspot
6. Just proceed with the steps. After completion you will receive $25 credit :laugh:
All these steps in detail and with screenshots are also available on my blog post http://www.abtevrythng.com/2012/09/how-to-get-25-credit-in-play-store-with.html

There's no secure element. You physically lack the hardware. Google's given up on Wallet for all intents and purposes.
Also being on a carrier that doesn't support wallet to begin with doesn't help.

Im not sure about that, isis initialized this phones secure element just fine. I think the nexus 7 lacks the secure element.
I believe the secure element is in the Sim card now. Not sure if Google Wallet could use that when/if we get root.

I don't have the NFC SE Sim as of Now, but today I ordered the NFC SE so as to hedge my bets when Isis starts to allow all credit/debit cards. I hate to go through this waiting game again. I was using Google wallet almost daily and it was one of my favorite gnex features.
That said Isis activated on my maxx without issue. And the isis site is a little confusing. It says it requires both an NFC se Sim and the phones NFC. But when using the app it says my phone was initialized just fine.

I had a Gnex with root and it was installed. Than one day it just gave me the unsupported carrier notification (not unsupported phone) and that was the end of that. They had to mail me a refund check.

Well, Canada getting anything is quite groundbreaking! Thats what this is all about.
Theres no Radio on my google music... maybe I didnt get update?
Welcome to Canada!
I'm glad a post was made announcing Google Music's availability in Canada, perhaps a new thread dedicated to services actually available to Canadians should be started, for example Amazon app store is finally available to us Canadians (Free app of the Day):victory:
For those who don't care I understand, but many many services are delayed or blocked for us up here so having a resource or post letting us now about one finally getting loose up here is great!

This is how it happened. I accessed the Play Store, and went to Music. It was there that I found music for sale! I immediately bought the new pearl jam cd. I now believe that it was this purchase that brought about the changes to Google music on my phone.
I am running v5.2.1224L.847622
The only thing of note is that in my Google wallet settings, I have a visa for purchases. The address for it is in the U.S..

Grand Central, the company Google purchased and transformed into Google Voice, offered Canadian numbers.
Plus there are several talk/text applications that offer Canadian numbers like Fongo.
Don't know, but I'll take your word for it. Perhaps it's size - smaller player's get away with it, while bigger companies play by the rules? I'm sure if they could Google would go for it - it's in their interest to do so.

If its like the $20 Chromecast credit you need to sign into wallet.google.com and select Payment Methods to see it in your account. Mine shows up there but not in the Google Wallet app and i dont see a way to see it in your Play Store account.
I have not purchased anything yet from the Play Store with it but would assume that it will just show up as a credit towards the PlayStore purchase once you go to purchase whatever.
