Google Wallet now available for iOS, even without NFC Google has announced that their mobile payment app Google Wallet is now available for iOS devices.
The app will bring over most of the features known to Android users, including transfers to friends and family, loyalty card tracking and local offers.

iOS does not support NFC yet, however, so tap-to-pay will obviously not work, and that feature is one of the main points of using Wallet (or rival payment services).

On the security side, the app is locked by PIN and if your device gets lost, the app can be disabled and wiped remotely via Google's site.

Check the app here, if you are running iOS 6.0 or higher.
