Google Wallet is not so much a "wallet" for your cards but a way to link your cards to their own payment service, Google Pay.
Both Apple and Google had a lot of problems convincing banks to accept their respective services, and even then many stores still don't support this payment method. A company with the clout and size of Proton has no chance to get their own service widely accepted.
