Passengers can now use contactless payment methods on all Translink bus and train services.
Translink says it has introduced contactless payments on all Ulsterbus and Goldliner services across Northern Ireland enabling faster boarding and an enhanced customer experience.
The roll out to Ulsterbus means passengers simply pay for their ticket by tapping their contactless credit/debit card, smartphone, or smart device on the reader and board the bus, removing the need to carry cash or pre-purchase a ticket prior to travel.

Chris Conway, Translink Group Chief Executive, said: “This is another key step to deliver customer led, innovative ticketing with a focus on ease of use, simplicity, convenience and integration in order to increase the use of public transport. The on-board technology accepts contactless payments from enabled smart device wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, Visa and Mastercard contactless credit and debit cards, as well as pre-paid contactless cards.
