Why Does Kohl’s Not Accept Google Pay?
The reason Kohl’s doesn’t accept Google Pay and other NFC payment methods is that they wouldn’t be able to capture anywhere near as much important customer data if they accepted Google Pay.
Like other stores, such as Walmart, Kohl’s decided to roll out their own payment system so that they can collect more data on their customer’s shopping habits.
Customers are incentivized to use the app as it lets them easily handle payment, store and apply savings directly from the app, track exchanges and returns as well as keep an eye on regular purchases.
