I would use Android Pay if Google didn't restrict it to licensed unrooted stock versions of Android. Cyanogenmod supports Marshmallow on my phone where stock is still on KitKat, but I can't use Android Pay with it.

Can't these checks be subverted/modified?

I don't think they've ever been bypassed on custom roms that aren't based on an official rom. Basically it checks all the files in /system to ensure they match with one that's undergone certification. If you have a good rom but just rooted it, there are some tricks although I haven't tested them, but nothing has been done for cyanogenmod or anything else not based on a certified one.
