Fare Inspection Experience after using Express Transit Card

Posted by New Flyer #857 on Wed Jul 22 15:39:20 2026

I finally had my first experience with fare inspection since starting to use my phone to pay fare. I learned that the inspectors have no problem scanning the physical OMNY cards or the unlocked phones with their digital wallets activated. But having used Express Transit Pay I learned that unfortunately you cannot just touch your unlocked phone to the inspector’s reader as nothing happens. When I told him what I did I offered to pull up the related card on my digital wallet (not knowing if it would work or not) but as I started to do so he just saw in my transactions that fare was paid not too long ago and so I was good.

So I know I can’t “express-style” an inspection but I still don’t know for sure if pulling up the payment method for scanning would give the inspector the all clear.
