Leapcard

[Deleted User] · 2021-05-31 16:00:01

Are there any apps that would be able to scan a card like the leapcard and then I can use the phones NFC to scan on the Luas or Dublin bus instead of the physical card?

That would involve cloning the Leap card. How would the transport operator dock the fare if you didn't have the card?

Bank and phone payment options are coming, just very slow. They need new equipment to handle this.

No the app is for top up only. The validators can only read cards not phones
