If this means that I might be able to use NFC payments because alternatives to Google Pay will exist, I am very happy. Hopefully this will also make possible to F-droid to provide auto updates.
I'm confused why would you need a phone to pay via NFC. All you need is your card.
Some countries have limits to nfc payments with a card. Finland has 50e but with a phone no limits (unless the bank limits).
