So a few family members use Google for mobile payment. They are aware of the privacy implications but are there any good alternatives? PayPal is just as bad and any other alternatives I found are crypto.

Crypto is the real solution but the volatility introduced by speculating crypto bros, and subsequent lack of transactional use due to hoarding and exploding network cost, ruins the concept.

At the moment I use cash for privacy, Privacy.com cards for recurring automated payments, and a Discover card for everything else.
