Plastic cards will be accepted for payment on St. Petersburg buses.31.01.2017

Soon the possibility of fare payment by bank card will be organized on all public buses.

Last year, 23 thousand passengers have already paid the fare, using the bank card. The demand for such payment method has pushed the state-owned company to arrange the bank cards on all 1900 state-owned buses.

At this point the fare payment with the help of the bank cards is available on routes 39 and 39E, plying between the metro station "Moskovskaya" and Pulkovo airport. The bold decision was taken in 2015 for the first time in Russia. You can make the payment by the bank cards, supporting payment system Pay Pass and Pay Wave.

According to business statistics, the share of plastic cards accounted for 60% of transaction.

The State Company for Transport announced a competition among banks on the implementation of the payment equipment for the bank cards.

The winner will be known in March 1 of this year.
