It's not the Google payments card that has long been planned, but Google is set to announce today that it is releasing a Google Wallet debit card that allows people to pay at stores that accept Mastercard using their Google Wallet balance. Cardholders will also be able to withdraw cash from their Wallet account using ATMs.
With the card, Google isn't going for mass adoption; instead, the card is expected to mainly appeal to a subset of Google Wallet users who have had money transferred to them from another Google Wallet user and don't want to wait a couple of days for the money to land in their bank account. Once money lands in someone's Google Wallet account, it will connect with the debit card almost instantly.
The card can be ordered for free from the Android Google Wallet app or from a Google Wallet account page.
