Six additional Chiltern Railways stations to receive pay as you go technology
Pay as you go technology is set to be expanded to six additional Chiltern Railways stations at the end of the month.
From Sunday 30 June customers can pay as you go using a contactless card or device at the following six stations:
- Beaconsfield
- Denham
- Denham Golf Club
- Gerrards Cross
- High Wycombe
- Seer Green & Jordans
As part of a major investment, customers at the six stations will be able to tap in and tap out using a contactless card or device, transforming the way rail travel is purchased on the Chiltern network.
Andy Camp, Commercial & Customer Strategy Director at Chiltern Railways, said:
“We are delighted that pay as you go technology is being expanded to an additional six Chiltern stations.
“Pay as you go offers a more flexible and efficient experience as customers can tap in and tap out at stations, simplifying rail travel.”
Using pay as you go with contactless is fast, flexible and convenient. All customers need to travel is their contactless card or device. Customers will be charged the best adult fare for their journey on the day and time of their travel.
Customers using pay as you go with contactless should ensure they tap in at the start of their journey and tap out at the end. If they don't tap in and out, this will show as an incomplete journey, and they may be charged a maximum fare.
