Privacy .com has an app that I think has similar functionality but I haven't used it. Last time I checked you have to get the non-free subscription of privacy .com, which I've been thinking about doing. Privacy .com enables you to create virtual credit cards so you can purchase things semi-anonymously. I'm using GrapheneOS which I think doesn't allow you to use any sort of NFC payments.

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.

Good to know, I should look into that.
