I’m trying to move away from Google and other big tech corporations as much as I can without sacrificing practicality but it seems like the only way to make contactless payments is with stock android on a Google approved device.

Is there any alternative out there that would allow me to make contactless payments without these conditions met? (For example, if I put grapheneos on my phone)

      Slightly higher-tech solution: 3d print a phone case with a card slot in the back.

        Or get one of those flip-open ones with card slots. Or just a basic rubbery one and put the card in there!
