Speculation that Google Wallet will interfere with the aid of PayPal, the site was created by the emergence of June 20 article in the Wall Street Journal that Google plans pay service to compete with PayPal.

Via PayPal is a unit of eBay, and generates nearly 25% of the total income from eBay. It is used by consumers for a variety of Internet shopping. This allows customers to use their credit cards without revealing their credit card numbers to the dealers. Via PayPal, has a share of each transaction and that revenue from $ 233.1 million in the first quarter of this year.
