You just tap it on the reader at the entrance to the platform, and again at the barrier at the exit at Centraal. If your card isn’t enabled for contactless, you’ll need to buy a ticket from the machines or ticket office.

I tried researching it online, but don't see it mentioned anywhere. I’m not sure how you researched this online, but there are lots of mentions of this new payment method online. For instance the official website that explains all you need to know; https://www.ovpay.nl/en Or the Dutch Tourism website https://www.holland.com/global/tourism/getting-around/information/public-transport/ov-chip-card-5.htm Or this expat website; https://www.iamexpat.nl/expat-info/dutch-expat-news/ovpay-ns-check-dutch-trains-your-phone-or-debit-card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apparently was unsure exactly which were official sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weacat Posted June 3, 2023 #30 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Do I need to buy physical tickets if traveling with a child? Or use the NS app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
