Google Wallet adds plastic to its payment repertoire, offers pre-paid debit card

Much as Google Wallet tried to get NFC and phones in general to be the payment form of the future, it seems that the company has realized that many folks are still attached to plastic. To meet that luddite demand, today Google began offering a pre-paid Google Wallet debit card to give access to your Google-fied funds when you don't have your handset handy. The card is issued as a MasterCard and grants ATM access, and is currently only available to US residents who have already been through Big G's identity verification process. Should you fit into that category of folks, you'll find all the info needed to sign up at the source links below.
