Leave him alone and just plonk him if he's too stupid to understand you.
The reality is that it's far more secure to use NFC from your phone than
to use a credit card, either with a chip or with NFC.
If your credit card is stolen then you're not responsible for
unauthorized charges, but it's a hassle to dispute the charges and have
them reversed. If your phone is stolen, without the PIN, face, or
fingerprint it's not possible to use Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay.
The additional security is that your actual physical card information is
not stored on the phone.
