Odaily News PayPal has officially announced its support for Google's Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) and will soon become a payment option within Google's new UCP-powered checkout features. This collaboration aims to enable merchants to offer their products and support purchases within Google Search's AI mode and the Gemini application. Notably, PayPal announced an upgrade to its P2P payment experience last September, planning to integrate cryptocurrencies into its new in-app P2P payment flow and launch a personalized link transfer service.
