Hey, I am kinda new to degoogling and I was wondering if there is an alternative to Google wallet with NFC payment. I dont want to use samsungs or apples too. Thanks

I pay with NFC on GrapheneOS. You just need to find an alternative that works for you.

    What do you use? I tried stuff like revolut but it just tries to forward to google wallet, which will not work

    I use Curve right now. Walt is an up and coming alternative.

    Hm okay thank you, didn't know that could even technically work, thought it must go through google in any case to work.

    Nice that it works, but with those reviews (trustpilot) they will not get any of my money soon, I rather stay with cash.

    Yeah, Curve's support is non-existent and it was a ROUGH on-boarding but it now works without issue. I'm satisfied.

    They've not got any of my money either, they're just an intermediary and not taking a cut of any transactions. I don't bother with any of the perks and extras if you pay them.

    I guess they're making money from me by selling my purchase history?? I'm not too bothered because all the big transactions are done by physical Amex card, which Curve doesn't cater for.
