Paying in Amstelland-Meerlanden

There are more and more ways to pay for public transport. You can travel with an OV-chipkaart, a barcode, the Tranzer app or you can buy an individual ticket with a debit or credit card. Cash payment is no longer possible on buses. You can still buy an anonymous OV-chipkaart with cash at several points of sale in the region.
 

Choose a method of payment that suits you best

Individual tickets can be paid on the bus with a debit card. Simply pay in the front of the bus, with the bus driver. It is really easy and safe! Take a look at the payment options in Amstelland-Meerlanden:

Tranzer

With the handy Tranzer app, you can buy a mobile ticket. You can then buy a ticket that is valid for your entire journey, whether you are travelling on a Connexxion bus or an NS train. Download the free Tranzer app onto your smartphone (Android or Apple) and buy your ticket online. 

OV-chipkaart

You can also continue to pay on the bus with your OV-chipkaart. With both an anonymous and personal card you can travel on credit. You can also add a subscription or discount card onto the personal OV-chipkaart.

Choose the convenience of automatic top-up!

With a personal OV-chipkaart you can choose for automatic top-up. The credit on your OV-chipkaart is then automatically increased as soon as it falls below a certain amount. This way, you will always have enough credit to travel.

With automatic top-up, you will never have to go to a ticket machine to load credit onto your OV-chipkaart. You will always have a valid ticket in your pocket. You can, at any time, easily stop the automatic top-up.
