Gpay alternatives for grapheneos?
- Edited
Sorry but I'll trust holding my genuine card's chip up to a reader over giving my bank info to any 3rd party.
Certus They support cards from anywhere, but it is currenly only for residents in the EU. They are planning to expand to the US but still didn't happened AFAIK https://www.curve.com/en-us
I also got Curve from Huawei working on GrapheneOS. You will be prompted to install HMS Core by the Curve app itself, but non special permission is required besides network , nor the creation of a Huawei account. Rebooting is necessary before enabling contactless payments.

I don't know if it's a coincidence with the uninstallation of HMS core but this is what I did:
- Install Huawei App Gallery, Curve and HMS core.
- Try to enable Curve NFC but gets stuck in endless waiting.
- Uninstall HMS core.
- Try again to enable Curve NFC, this time it worked.
- Install HMS Core again .
Not need of Huawei account or special permissions.
Now I have pending to make a payment to see if it works.
This is my experience with Curve +Tapster https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/16606-experience-wearable-nfc-payment
mgeo Oh. Missed that post.
Isn't the whole purpose of these cards and apps to track their users?
I read the reviews of Curve app on google store, there are quite many 1/5 or so.
I decided I don't need this feature that much. The use case that I went for a walk with kids, forgot wallet and they want ice cream is not that important.
Tbh, I'm long past this. Fidesmo pay works wonderfully with watches, bracelets and rings. I have a cnick ring linked with my debitcard, easy. Don't even have to take out the phone to pay, and it's outsourced from the phone as well.
kALIMIzT I just registered to thank you and confirm this. Got it working on latest lineage os 22.1 following your guidelines. I was struggling a lot in the beginning because I missed linking the Huawei and Google accounts and just created a new one. Did everything else but it still didn't work. It was a matter of linking the accounts in manage my account inside the Huawei app gallery and it worked.
Thanks for the guidelines!
Guys, Curve has enabled Curve Pay today. Integrated with the phone's NFC, no Google Pay needed.
Audacity0780 Wow! That means I can sign up, connect a card, and pay using my phone running GOS. I gotta try!

Can you share version you installed?
andonl with the current 4.81.1 from the Playstore it works
andonl Yes, as already mentioned 4.81.1 has the feature.
I've been trying it and works perfectly.
This solves NFC payments for at least European GOS users, you can pay with Curve Pay and it charges whatever other card you have from your local bank.
Thanks Curve for not including any Play Integrity BS!!
