Apple Pay not working after screen change

iPhone SE 2022 - the screen was smashed but Apple Pay still worked, screen been changed and now Apple Pay doesn’t work. Repair shop said it’s because not original screen. Already removed the card and readded and switched phone off and on again, still doesn’t work. I don’t think it has to be original screen and something happened when he repaired it. Has anyone experienced that?

There’s a possibility the NFC antenna was broken during the screen replacement. Diagnostics can confirm if NFC is working or not. My advice is to return it to the repair shop that replaced the screen. Apple will probably not repair the issue because of the non Apple branded screen.
