I thought the idea of it was that apps like Square could make use of the built in NFC to accept the payment without requiring an extra dongle.
But the Square device itself is a dongle, sure it’s Bluetooth and not tethered to the device, but Apple has set up a system that removes the Square device from the equation
Square have already integrated with Apple's Tap to Pay in some countries.

I see in Australia, but I don’t see if it’s possible in Canada 🤔
