Google has announced the rollout of a new way to pay for parking directly in Google Maps.

This way, drivers can either pay via Google Pay or go to a payment website.

The company has teamed up with the parking app Passport, thus allowing users to pay for parking in Google Maps while approaching their destination.

Google expects this solution to solve the problem of parking in cities. Besides, that would eliminate the necessity for touching payment terminals amid COVID-19.

We’ve reported that 7-Eleven is currently testing a new solution that allows iPhone owners to purchase fuel for their cars using?Siri. According to information, this pilot is rolling out in 7-Eleven stores in North and South Orlando FL, North Texas, and Woodbridge VA.
