Presto just expanded where you can pay with credit card or phone in Ontario Ontario Presto

The province announced the latest rollout in Presto contactless payment on Monday morning, revealing that as of today, riders on several Ontario transit systems can tap credit cards, phones, and other smart devices to pay fares on a Presto machine.

But the TTC is a notable omission from the list, as the country's busiest and most-used transit network lags behind even its suburban neighbours. "The expansion of credit card payment on Presto devices in Durham Region, York Region, Burlington, and Hamilton is just another way our government is simplifying the transit experience for Ontarians," continued Cho's statement.2021 on the UP Express

Today's announcement further expands the credit payment program to new transit systems, but the TTC remains a glaring omission from the list.
