Customers travelling on EastCoast buses services will be able to pay for their fare using contactless from tomorrow, Thursday 20 December.
The technology has been fitted to all EastCoast buses vehicles providing customers with a quick and convenient payment option. VISA or MasterCard payment cards will be accepted, as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Nigel Serafini, Commercial Director from Lothian said: “This is the first time that contactless payment will be accepted for journeys on our services between Edinburgh and East Lothian. We are sure this will be a welcome addition to the county and will complement our existing range of value for money ticketing and payment choices for our customers, providing a seamless and convenient way to pay for your ticket.”
Since operation began in August 2016 the business has introduced additional routes and services including a new Nightbus service. This combination of development measures and dedication to customer service has resulted in customer growth of over 52% to date.
