Is it using RFID or did they have to install NFC payment terminals at the turnstiles? My understanding (I haven't used it) is that for New York's OMNY system, they installed NFC hardware that Apple Pay knows not to ask for authentication with. (So that the Express Card functionality will work). But perhaps I am mistaken.
- selectodude 5y agoThey're RFID readers, you can set any card as "Express Pay" in Apple Pay and it doesn't require auth. I have my Ventra Card in Chicago as my "Express transit" card and it will still work even when the phone is off or dead.
