How to change the Google Play account in Pokemon Go to use the balance?

Arqade Asked by Little Pengi on February 22, 2021

I am playing Pokemon Go using Google account 1. I then redeemed my Google Play gift card to the same account. Then when I try to go to the Pokemon Go shop, hoping to use the balance in Google Play account to buy coins, Pokemon Go shows the Google Play store page again, but with another Google account 2. This is the default account set in my Android mobile phone. How can I switch the account back to account 1 in Pokemon Go, so that I can use the balance inside the Google Play account 1?

I found a rather stupid solution -- remove all other Google accounts except account 1, i.e. the one used for playing Pokemon Go. Hope to see a better solution.

Found the answer elsewhere. You need to uninstall the app on your phone and install it using the correct account FROM THE PLAY WEB STORE. On your computer. After I did that I had the correct account when I made purchases from the Pokemon Go shop.

I didn't have to remove any of the other accounts on the phone. I am using a different account to pay for purchases than I am for playing pokemon go.

After trying every fix I could find, I set up my Pokemon account on a discarded phone, using only that account's gmail on the phone. When I opened the game, my credit finally appeared.
