Xiaomi has partnered with Mastercard to allow contactless payments using the NFC chip, so that some banks in Belarus and Ukraine can now offer the service. However, you must be a Mastercard holder.
There is no word yet on when or if Mi Band 4 NFC will be available in other European markets, but Xiaomi's partnership with Mastercard, clearly shows that we will soon have a wider European availability of the device.
Hopefully the Mi Band 5 NFC will also be part of this expansion into the European market, instead of letting its predecessor take all its glory.
