Mastercard tap in TransitLink

[Knightoftheblackrose]

Same here. Just got the TransitLink email.

So the latest sequence is as follows :

1. Sign up for the pilot run via your MasterCard debit/credit card's issuing bank

2. ABT Transit link will send an email to you asking you to " activate" your account.

3. TransitLink will then send to you an email asking you to go to any of the GTMs in any train station. Place your card on the reader and follow the onscreen instructions to physically activate your MasterCard.

Just got an email from transitlink



I suspect they need to see the card at a GTM to deactivate its EZlink CAN number to avoid double charging at the gate. I hope this does not break EZlink at other vendors...

I was invited months ago along with uob offering the privimiles mastercard. They mentioned they going on a trial and was invited to try this pilot thing. Just received the confirmation to use it tomorrow. Shall give it a try

At the top up machine if I'm not wrong, you are able to default whichever payment you preferred

Does 'deactivation' mean that Ezlink function can't be used at all or only at bus/MRT.

If at all - the what's the point of such 'innovation'?

Mine doesn't work. I suspect I select the wrong option at the GTM. Is it a yes or no when u select at GTM?

Just tried using UOB Privi MC - just keep seeing bank card usage when you tap. Dunno how much you are charged also. Think will go back to using Ezlink

Well it worked for my POSB Mastercard debit, but didn't show the journey cost, just "Bank card usage"

Signed up via UOB website but received nothing to date. Have to manually do it via Transitlink's page instead.

Guys, for the DBS everyd card, only the 1st 3 SMRT rides are free right?
After that I should move on to the Maybank or the cimb cc?

T&C states $80 min spending
meaning
if from 20 mar to 19 April- travel expenses(by bus or mrt) cannot hit $80 (eg $79.99) - means no 10%?
and die die must hit $80 ($8 max rebate) as any amount greater than $80 means no rebate hor?

Or $80 min spending on cc on anything?

 

[jtv_tm]

Just to check, anyone has successfully added your FEVO card into the transitlink account?
