It's one of the VPN products I saw on fdroid, but I couldn't find payment info and it says it's experimental. Has anyone tried it and have a baseline on how it is compared to other VPNs?

Also do they have payment methods? I couldn't find them last time I looked and I'm worried it's a free VPN

Yeah I'm not into shitcoins either but the purpose of the NYM token is to create economical incentive for node runners and I don't think its bad. Maybe the implementation is not perfect but it's something worth exploring regarding how bad the Tor network is corrupted partially due to a lack of incentive to behave as good nodes.
