It is enough to bring it closer to the validation device

At all stations on the metro lines you can now validate your trip with a bank card, regardless of its issuer, according to CGM. It is enough to approach only the map, which will often be used to pass. The price of a single trip is BGN 1.60, and if you travel more than three times during the day (including a combination of land transport), the system automatically charges a daily ticket price of BGN 4.00, regardless of how many times you used public transport.

The only condition is to use the same bank card throughout the day. Tests of the subway system ended on Friday, and passengers quickly orientated themselves and began using it.

“Over the last few days, more than 2,000 people have taken the subway every day with bank cards,” said Dimitar Dilchev, executive director of the Center for Urban Mobility.

The validation of travel by bank cards and in the subway is another step towards upgrading the services for the convenience of passengers with public transport and the use of the ticket system.
