Tap-to-pay support was once relatively rare among banks, but over a decade on the scene has expanded support for Google Wallet to virtually every bank. Recently, though, Google Wallet has expanded to around 40 more banks, as well as adding support for Venmo cards.

Google Wallet’s list of supported banks is quite long, as details on a support page. Over three thousand banks and credit unions are listed, and occasionally, there are new additions. As spotted by Android Police, the latest batch includes 44 new banks and credit unions from around the United States.

The additions mainly include local banks and credit unions, as well as a handful of prepaid debit cards too.

The most notable addition is Venmo. The PayPal-owned app is best known for its ability to quickly share funds to friends, family, and even businesses, but the service also offers physical debit cards. These cards can use the balance on your Venmo account which can be filled up from a bank account. Venmo also offers credit cards.

Technically, Venmo has been supported in one capacity or another for a while now, with user reports showing up as far back as over 5 years ago. But, more recently, users have reported issues with adding these cards, and Google’s support page never officially listed Venmo until now. We also found a support page that was updated less than a week ago mentioning Google Pay support (though Venmo lists it on several pages). Presumably, Venmo has made some updates to its Google Wallet support recently, but in any case, it’s good news.
