Derby goes contactless by bus.

			Derby goes contactless by bus.
Arriva bus credit card.

How many times have you left the house without cash? Now you don’t have to worry about forgetting money for the bus because Arriva buses are now going to launch contactless payments. This means that you can pay with your credit cards if you or other people are traveling. It promises passengers quick, easy and secure payments via either debit and credit cards, or Apple and Google Pay. We interviewed the public and asked them what they thought about it. Manal a year 7 student said ‘ I think that it helps the public because they don’t have to take money out of their credit cards before going on the bus’. We also asked Ms Lalli who is a teacher said ‘I think that it is a wonderful idea because it is easier and it is less stressful. What do you think about this?
