I can no longer turn on NFC or use Samsung wallet to pay.

Try this:

Go to Settings > Apps & Toggle ON "Show System Apps" and Search for NFC > Click on NFC & Scroll down to Storage & Clear Both Cache & Data for NFC & Reboot.. see if that works for you?

You could also Boot into Recovery & Wipe Cache from Recovery. 

See if either of these fix the issue for you.

This does work but it seems to be temporary. Thank you though.

What makes you think that it might be temporary? Is Samsung Wallet not working after some time, or?

Which suggestion seemed to work, Clearing Cache & Data for NFC, or Booting into Recovery & Wiping Cache.. did you try both or?

Hi UnholyBacon,

It is unusual to hear that NFC has stopped working following the One UI 8 update. As you have already tried the steps suggested by @RedDogRabbit and they appear to be effective, please confirm whether the issue persists after some time. This will help us assist you further with the appropriate steps to resolve the problem.
