Transport NSW turns on Apple Pay, Google Pay for buses
It’s been a long time coming, but the NSW-based Opal card now works not just across trains, ferries, and light rail, but also bus services, too.
It’s been a long time coming, but the NSW-based Opal card now works not just across trains, ferries, and light rail, but also bus services, too.
The next time you take a train or ferry in Sydney, you might be able to tap on using your phone, debit, or credit card, and can leave the Opal at home.
Left your Opal card at home? Tapping on and off on Sydney’s train network has been made a little easier.
Sydneysiders have been forced to adopt the Opal card, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy or liked by everyone. Fortunately if they have contactless payments, they have tap on transport sorted.
Dear CommBank, Westpac, St George, and the other banks that refuse to join Apple and Android Pay, a moment of your time: please use this year to grow up.
Your wallet could be a thing of the past, or at least the way you pay, as Optus allows anyone using its mobile service to start paying without taking out the card.
