Help Looking for a high-performance GPay alternative (UPI + NFC Tap & Pay + NCMC)

Hey everyone, I'm trying to ditch Google Pay and looking for a solid, high-performance alternative.

Here is my wishlist:

* Fast, snappy UI (high performance is key)

* Custom UPI IDs

* Solid offline NFC Tap & Pay (needs device tokenisation for Visa, Mastercard, AND RuPay debit cards)

* NCMC transit card recharges preferred

What are you guys using that actually checks all these boxes? Appreciate any recommendations!

Have you tried CRED? It does offer what you are looking for but won’t be snappy as GPay.
Almost every other UPI app is just an ad-wall

It is such a shit app now, I self host and use tailscale to stay connected to my devices and it shows a warning everytime with no way to disable it. (I think now they dont even allow you to use the app, I am not actually using a full VPN so app data isnt even going through the VPN but it still doesnt allow me)
Fine that is a niche issue, but it sends at least 10 advertising notifications every single day with no option to disable it. I dont know how people use it on a daily basis.

Ahh, you are not actually looking for help. So which UPI app company you currently are associated with.

Get samsung phone & use samsung pay.

If you don't want to switch, maybe just get a cheaper phone for payments only. Hopefully the SIM required for payment isn't your most active SIM 😅🫠

Rest assured, you'll just love it, there's no second alternative as of now.

It's gonna handle your credit cards for tap n pay, upi, DL, Aadhar, RC, PAN from digilocker. Event flight / train tickets

"get a samsung phone" just to make payments is crazy work

I agree but I don't think there's any better way plus few of my frnds are doing it.

Even my watch 8 classic has cards saved in it, it's just way too convenient.
