Google Pay alternative? (lemmy.world)

Hey there, I'm looking for an alternative to Google pay that'll allow me to use NFC payments etc. Thoughts?

I don't have a Google account, nor am I interested in opening one.

E: Just to clarify, the payment part would be convenient, more annoying is how I don't get to use a single place for my subway/gym/ticketmaster passes.

I doubt hardly if there will be one other than Apple Pay. These NFC payments are basically payment processors that have strict compliances and regulation which in trun only few vendors can enter thus sector.

Figured as much, just thought I'd ask. What about for other things like gym passes?

There's an app called Catima that might allow you to store other cards

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

it can only store cards that use barcodes/QR codes, not NFC ones.

Thanks, I actually use this for my Ikea cards etc. Great for static barcodes etc, doesn't support NFC though. Thanks anyhow.
