Which card is that?  Going back through my old email I find that I actually signed up for google pay with a long-defunct credit card.
 

US Bank Altitude Reserve. It has a net $75 annual fee ($400-$325), but, for me, the benefits outweigh that $75.
1. 3% cash back on electronic wallet purchases (break even versus a 2% card is $7500 per year). Or 4.5% if you purchase travel with the card.[I have used this multiple times]
2. Primary rental car insurance, not secondary.[I have used this multiple times]
3. Global Entry reimbursement (equivalent to $25 per year)[I have used this]
4. Priority Pass membership (8x per year) [I have used this multiple times]
5. One year extended warranty coverage (many cards have dropped this feature, including the Costco Citibank Visa)
6. $500 sign-up bonus [I have used this and it covers nearly seven years of the $75 net annual fee]
Plus some stuff that is pretty worthless, or that I'd be unlikely to ever use, or hopefully not ever need to use:
7. 90 day theft and loss coverage
8. Identity theft coverage
9. Emergency evacuation coverage
10. Repatriation of remains
11. Lost luggage reimbursement
12. Trip delay reimbursement
13. Emergency travel services
14. Trip cancellation coverage
15. Travel accident insurance
