If your credit card gives you rebate, you will still get it when using 
that card via Google Pay - or Paypal, too. In the UK is my Amex card 
gives me the most cashback, but some retailers won't accept it directly 
because Amex charge them such high fees. Using Amex  via Google or 
Paypal I still get the cashback and the same retailers accept the 
payment without question. The downside is that you may not get Section 
75 protection via a third party (but may still get chargeback from the 
bank and Paypal have their own cover), but as we don't get Section 75 
cover below £100 anyway in the UK, that is no loss to me. If I'm buying 
items over £100 I use the credit card direct.
