I'm looking for a way to have a private method for Tap to Pay on GrapheneOS. Ideally I would like compatibility with privacy.com, and if possible have the option for Monero. I don't mind going through an exhaustive setup process. What are my options?

Edit: The point of this is not for convenience, I am trying to avoid using my standard credit/debit card to provide privacy against my bank by using privacy.com or Monero when cash is unavailable.

Tap to pay is not supported on GOS due to a google certification issue, i.e. GOS can't in good faith spoof the google signing keys like some other ROMs do (because google could break it at any time)

NFC payments ARE supported by Graphene. Gpay is not, due to google not supporting it. If your bank app, has the option and no reliance to gpay you will be able to pay with your phone.

IIRC the project has a page with the ones that do work.

Why cant they get officially approved by google? Is it purely monopoly maintenance? Surly the eu will mark them as gatekeepers?
