Are you asking whether you should use grapheneos, your fitbit or a second phone for banking?

For NFC payment

A bank card is far more practical than a second phone. Even if Google Pay did work on GrapheneOS, I would not use it. It looks like a privacy nightmare.
-
True, there really is no reason to configure a second phone just to use NFC payments when you can just carry a much smaller card...
-
It is. Just put your card in your phone case if you really want to tap your phone to pay. Accepted in more places too :)

If you want a device to do NFC payments you'll need to look somewhere other than GrapheneOS. (Believe me, I've tried everything)
-
If you must, the least invasive of the wearables that don't suck is Garmin. Get a Garmin watch that supports it.
Paying with NFC does lower the risk of getting a card cloned. The payment generates a unique code that's worth only what you paid.
-
Garmin pay, assuming you bank supports it
-
Use a card. NFC is not a necessity.
