LTA expands contactless payment trial for public transport to Visa, Nets cardholders

 

 

SINGAPORE - Visa and Nets cardholders can soon pay for their train and bus rides using their contactless bank cards, with the expansion of a pilot by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) to begin next month.

 

 

The LTA, Nets and Visa said in a joint statement on Friday (Nov 30) that the account-based ticketing (ABT) system has seen a successful pilot run with Mastercard since March last year.

 

Commuters are charged for their public transport rides in their credit or debit card bill, similar to contactless transactions made at retail merchants.
