skylink Derby has launched the UK’s first truly tap-on tap-off contactless travel.
The Kinchbus innovation trumps London buses and others that have tap-on contactless payments which charge a flat fare regardless of how few stops a customer stays on for.
Other bus operators have rolled out contactless payments, but it still requires the customer to state their destination, then the driver has to process the ticket and contactless payment.
Kinchbus MD Jeff Counsell says: “We’ve been pioneering advances in bus transport for decades, so it is with great pride and a lot of excitement that we are again bringing our customers the future first.”
