    Hello everyone,

    I'm just looking for a clue about if MaaS360 is capable to manage cards within a Google Wallet: add, update and delete cards inside Google Wallet of a managed mobile phone. Can anybody help?

    Hello Raphael,

    I would not think that this is possible as the payment information really resides in the google account rather than the app itself. The app offers not configuration settings whatsoever. MaaS360 would not really offer any functionality to access someone's google account and add/remove payment information.

    Best,

    Hello Beat, 

    Thank you for the answer. As you tell, once the information resides into Google Account, the MaaS can be helpful to remote wipe the device when needed, right? It's part of our concerns to protect the misuse, due a theft por example, of an card within wallet.

    Hey Raphael,

    As the actual information resides in the google account and NOT the actual google wallet app or the phone, you can remotely remove the app or wipe the phone without affecting the payment methods of the account. Therefore you can avoid misuse in case a phone is lost or stolen.

    Raphael,

    If the Wallet app is managed by MaaS you can remove the app.  If it isn't the only remediation would be a full wipe of the device. 

     

    Thanks,

    Hello Raphael,

    I never had this use case, but I think cards within a Google Wallet will be managed at the account level - not MaaS360.

    You can follow these steps to set up Android Enterprise integration with MaaS360® by using a Managed Google Play account:
