Hi,
Have a Galaxy S4 with a standard Android 5.0 build on it. All working well.
I have a Google Play store account with a credit card assigned.
I also have another Google Play store account which I have added a $30.00 Google play store voucher to.
When I want to purchase a Google play resource, it always selects the primary Google account with the credit card assigned to it.
Is there any way to select the 'second' account with the $30.00 Google Play voucher for payment of app/purchase?
I'm thinking I could remove the Google Play account with the credit card, leaving only the second account with the voucher, but wondering if there is a cleaner way of accessing the $30.00 voucher card account., without having to delete accounts.
Thanks for any thoughts/help.

I believe you must sign out of the first from settings>accounts>Google. Then sign in with your other account.

Hmm.. that's what I was thinking too. But was hoping you could "magically" switch between accounts without having to "remove" the primary credit card account. and then add it again later. It would/could seriously trash an Android device if the primary account has purchased many apps like Titanium Backup, Droidmail, Business Calendar and etc.
If lucky, at best those apps will just not work during the switch, at worst.....
Before I really thought about this, I thought is was a good/easy way for "significant other" to buy stuff on the voucher card and not have to concern myself about using the credit card account.
I believe, without ever having done it, a primary account can have multiple payment options.
Thus the primary account could have both the credit card and the voucher.
BUT, the voucher was just for one person and not the other little monkeys that use the 'primary' account for all there 'generic/common' paid applications.

You could try to just add the other account to your device. Settings>accounts>add account>Google.
Then see if you get the option to switch between the two.

So in light of yesterday's Google wallet announcement that you can attach money to an email, I had a question about whether it's currently possible to link a bank account to Google Wallet.
They say that credit/debit card money transfers will be charged a 2.9 percent fee, but transfers directly from a bank account will be free. It also shows in the help page how to link your bank account.
The problem for me is that the method doesn't exist yet for me. When I go to my payment method page, the only option is to add another card. Does anyone else not have the ability to add a bank account, or is it just me?
I'm wondering because I just tried to verify my identity, and it didn't work. It wants me to send in pictures of photo ids and stuff now, so I thought that might have something to do with why it doesn't work for me. Maybe your identity has to be verified first. The other possibility is that maybe they just haven't rolled out the feature yet, and nobody has it yet. Thanks for any input.

Hello,
I recently borrowed tablet that I needed to create app for some company, that was the chief's son tablet. I did the job, gived it back and was sure that i logged out from my google account. But right now on my google account in "my apps" I see thousand of free apps and I am scared that this kid will start buying paid games on my credit card. I contacted chief via e-mail, but till now there is no answer. Cannot contact him personally because right now I am not in the city.
So is there any way to exclude one of devices from my google account via web browser on my computer?
Can't you just change your Google password instead?
Well, I didn't thought about this, actually I can do it if there is no other way. I do not know how complicated it will be, because I have this two-step verification login etc.
I don't believe there is any other way of simply deleting a device from your Google account.
I have two bank accounts, one for bills, another one incidentals like personal stuff, groceries, gas, etc. I have a Google Wallet Card on the way, and I was thinking about using this for spending instead of the 2nd bank account. I thought it would be cool to be able to automatically transfer money to the card every month, but I'm not sure how you would go about doing this. Anyone have any ideas?
HI,
I have a google account with google play where i redeemed a gift card i won sometime ago. However, that is not the account for google play and email that i use the most and that i want to use, so i was wondering if its possible to transfer the play store balance to other account and purshaced apps also?
I have been using 2 accounts on my phone, but i have to switch it up sometimes and poweramp is one of the apps i bought and it gives me a validation of purschase error sometimes and i think it might be because the account that i used to purshace it with (the one with the gift card balance) is not always selected as main account on the play. So i just wanted to have everything in one account.
Is this possible?
Thank you!
You using a free legacy Google Apps for Your Domain/GApps account with your phone? Looks like we are screwed, currently. Migrate to a paid Google Workspace account is the only option offered by Google...
https://www.androidauthority.com/gsuite-legacy-free-edition-3093722/
So no proper migration tools to personal Gmail account, and no facility to migrate purchases. Older phones may even have to be factory reset to migrate to a new Google account. And I think apps you have already purchased may stop working if the GAFYD email address they were purchesed under is allowed to die.
I wonder how many are affected? This looks like the stuff Class Action Lawsuits are made of...
