The partnership is another milestone in MasterCard’s strategy to raise awareness of MasterCard® PayPass™ contactless payments in transport systems, as cities such as London move towards enabling contactless ‘open loop’ payments on their trains, tubes and buses. This would allow commuters to ‘Tap & Go™’ and pay travel fares directly at the ticketing gate with the same credit, debit or prepaid card they use to make everyday purchases. Hany Fam, President of the UK & Ireland Division at MasterCard, said: “Oyster has been a huge success, providing millions of consumers every day with a convenient way of accessing London’s transport system. But we believe that MasterCard PayPass can offer even more. Frustrations such as missing a train because you have to queue up to buy a ticket, or waiting for a bus only to find that you don’t have enough value to travel, could be a thing of the past. www.mastercard.com
