I’m trying to move away from Google and other big tech corporations as much as I can without sacrificing practicality but it seems like the only way to make contactless payments is with stock android on a Google approved device.
Is there any alternative out there that would allow me to make contactless payments without these conditions met? (For example, if I put grapheneos on my phone)


Anything other than contactless isn’t really an option, contactless is accepted pretty much everywhere here (UK not US) but I think it’s gonna get annoying if I start pulling out QR codes to pay
PayPal definitely isn’t NFC have checked that one already
