As someone with GPay installed and notify for it enabled right now:
What ads and promotions? I only ever get "you paid for this shit" notifications
@gamermanh
This kind of promotion. Sure, it's not a frequent issue, but you're telling me you (Google) maintain an OS where everyone has to follow the rules for a certain way, except you? I call bullshit.
Can also confirm I do not get ads/promotions from Google Wallet, and Google Pay isn't an app anymore, so maybe you should make sure you have a legit version. I only get the you just paid notifications, which I would want to get.
Can you show an example of the notifications you're getting?
I have GPay and I frequently get notifications telling me to claim their reward points. Those notifications aren't configurable separately from the payment notifications at the OS level. Super annoying.
