Yeah as a non-Android user I was confused by this page. You have to add your card to Google Pay to be able to use it for dorm entry? That's very Google of them,

Yeah as a non-Android user I was confused by this page. You have to add your card to Google Pay to be able to use it for dorm entry? That's very Google of them, like needing to enable "Web & App Activity" tracking to be able to get home/work directions in Maps. But then I wasn't sure if they just branded "any NFC pass you can put in your phone" as "Google Pay" which would be stupid but believable. Thanks for confirming.
