This “Nearby Spot” also helps users to donate in PM-CARES Fund or NGOs such as SEEDS, Give India, United Way and Charities Aid Foundation that is working towards procurement of protective tools for medical workers and relief for lockdown-impacted on daily wagers. This Nearby Spot allows a business to create a listing for the Google Pay app which, in turn, offers a customisable branded experience for that business.
