What I don't get is how something like this could be patented. Isn't it all obvious? I think we had every single non-trivial component (single-use tokens passed over secure channels, initialize-send-retry_if_failed loops and other stuff) for years. If the "innovation" is that those are now used for payments over NFC — I don't get it. Or I've missed something novel on a quick glance.
