Use the same card or device (American Express, Mastercard, Visa) to complete a trip
No need to top up in advance
You will pay the same Opal fare, and receive the same Opal benefits including:
If you hold a concession entitlement, you can link it to a contactless card and receive your discounted fares when you tap on and tap off with your chosen payment card.
If you’re eligible for concession fares you can open a Transport Connect account online, link your concession and discover more ways to pay with your credit or debit card, phone or watch. It’s faster, easier and you get the exact same fares and benefits as an Opal card.
Contactless payments can be used to pay for travel on public transport in Sydney, the Blue Mountains, Central Coast, the Hunter and the Illawarra.
