Your option is having a financial institution that provides tap to pay on their own app. Otherwise you will have to start carrying cards again.
Edit:
You might want to check this thread on the official forums which has the discussions regarding NFC payments.
I have seen people recommending the usage of a smart watch such as Garmin which has their own Pay application. You can check their compatibility list here. I didn't have any luck because they support like 5 cards in Canada.
Yeah, it doesn't support Nationwide in the UK either, so no go for me too. Maybe there should be a standard, open protocol for connecting to bank cards to pay, so each company doesn't have to separately approach every bank?
