Wireless Qi Charging disrupts NFC?

So earlier this week, I found a decent deal at COSTCO for a wireless charging station. I've always been annoyed at how USB-C connections could be so fragile and finicky at charging.

Past couple days, I suspect my NFC isn't working as it should. It's been only a couple times that I've tried using my phone to pay. So I can't be sure.

That said, it's been two months, and my other Google Pay issue (adding a particular credit card) still hasn't been resolved. It seems like there's at least two or three reason for every given try.

Are you saying that NFC is not working reliably when out and about after starting to use the wireless charging station at home? Presumably the phone is not on the charging station when trying to use NFC.

My bedside wireless charging stand blocks the DAB radio signal but only when turned on.

Does it work if you use Samsung Pay?

What stores have you tried to use it? Is it something like Walmart that uses their own proprietary app, rather than Apple, Google or Samsung Pay?
