Contacless payment in London

Yesterday we had a roast at my in laws, the food was great, the talk was great.

Then my mother in law told my husband she gave it a try to his advice the other day of using her contacless credit card to pay for the tube  or Underground.

So I was having my green tea today, thinking about that.

The way it works is as follows

1. First you need a contactless card, which will have this  symbol at the front

2. You need to put the card on the machine that allows you the entrance. It works in the same way as when you have an Oyster Card.

3. The fees are the same as when the Oyster card and you don't need to buy a ticket.

You can pay like this for buses, trams, DLR, and Overground.
