Add, Edit, and Manage Payment Cards in Chrome on Computer

Chrome hides saved cards a few menus deep, so finding, changing, or removing one takes a bit of digging. On a computer, the list lives under Settings, then Autofill and passwords, then Payment methods.

Open that page to add a card, fix an expiration date, delete a card you no longer use, or check whether card autofill and security-code storage are switched on.

In this guide, I have covered:

Add a Card to Chrome on Your Computer

Chrome usually asks to save a card after you check out, but you don’t have to wait for that prompt. You can add one now, before you shop. The card controls sit in Settings > Autofill and passwords > Payment methods.

Watch the Video Tutorial

Watch it once to see where the controls sit. If your Chrome window doesn’t match the video, trust the labels on your own screen and follow the written steps.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu at the top right.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Payment methods.
6. Select Add card.
7. Fill in the fields Chrome asks for, such as the card number, expiration date, cardholder name, and security code.
   
8. Enter a billing address if Chrome requests one.
9. Select Save.

You’ll know it worked when the card appears in the Payment methods list. Chrome can then offer it on checkout forms that support payment autofill.

Older builds still say Autofill or Passwords and Autofill. Open that entry instead and continue to Payment methods.

Edit a Saved Payment Card

A card expired, or your name was typed wrong the first time. Editing fixes that entry in place, so you never have to delete the card and add it again.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu at the top right.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Payment methods.
6. Locate the card you want to change.
7. Select the More menu beside the card.
8. Select Edit.
9. Change the details that are wrong.
10. Click Save.

The new details should show as soon as you save. If the old expiration date is still listed, close the settings tab and reopen Payment methods.

Delete a Saved Payment Card

A card you canceled, or one you’d rather Chrome didn’t keep on file, comes off the list in a few clicks. Current Chrome uses the Delete action inside the card’s More menu.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu at the top right.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Payment methods.
6. Locate the card you want to remove.
7. Select the More menu beside the card.
8. Select Delete.
9. Confirm the deletion in the prompt.

The card should drop off Chrome’s saved payment methods list right away. If you’re signed in with a Google Account, a copy may survive in Wallet, which the last section below covers.

TIP: Deleting a saved card does not close the card or cancel a recurring purchase. Check your subscriptions before removing a card you still use.

Manage Card Autofill and Security Code Settings

A card is saved, yet Chrome never offers it at checkout. That’s usually a switch, not a broken card. The Payment methods page holds the three controls that decide whether Chrome saves cards, fills them, and asks for your screen lock first.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu at the top right.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Payment methods.
6. Set Save and fill payment methods to On to let Chrome use saved cards, or Off to pause payment autofill.
7. Set Save security codes to On if you want Chrome to store the card’s security code with the payment method.
8. Set Verify it’s you to autofill payment methods to On if you want Chrome to require your device’s screen lock before filling a saved card.

A checkout site that doesn’t support saved payment methods will still ask you to type the number by hand. That’s the site’s choice, not a Chrome setting you can flip.

Turning Save and fill payment methods off pauses card autofill. Your saved cards stay in the list until you delete them one by one.

Check Saved Payment Cards in Chrome and Google Wallet

You deleted a card from Chrome and it keeps turning up elsewhere. When Chrome is signed in with a Google Account, cards can live in both Chrome and Google Wallet, so one copy can outlast the other.

Open Google Wallet to see the account-level list. Google’s guide to managing payment information in Chrome covers the current desktop path and how saved payment methods are handled.

If the card is still in Wallet after you remove it from Chrome, delete it there too. That’s the next place to look when a saved card lingers across Google services.

Managing cards on a phone instead? You can also add and manage card details in Chrome browser on Android.
