De Lijn is introducing contactless payment (cEMV) on all buses and trams. This means of payment has been developed by Europay, Mastercard and Visa, and is easy, safe and fast!
From 25 May, you can pay contactlessly on all our trams: on the coast, in Ghent and in Antwerp. From June 28, this is also possible on the Ring trambus. Contactless payment on buses will start in a later phase, as the terminals are currently not accessible due to the COVID-19 measures.

How do I pay contactlessly?
Hold a contactless bank card or other medium, such as a smartphone or smart watch, in front of the white terminal. A single trip costs 2.50 euros. * You can transfer to another bus or tram free within 60 minutes after first use (note: currently only a transfer to another tram is possible), in which case you should hold the same payment medium in front of the terminal again.
If you’re still on a bus or tram after the hour has elapsed, you can complete your ride. We won’t charge you for a new one. And don’t worry: there are no additional costs associated with contactless payment.
* With the exception of dial-a-buses and the Limburg express lines.
Do you want to pay contactlessly for a fellow-passenger? You will need to do so using a different medium. For example, you can pay with your smartphone for your child and use your contactless credit card for yourself. Consult our FAQs for more information.
Before you board the vehicle, make sure that:
- You’ve already used your contactless bank card or smartphone successfully at a retailer or shop. Contact your bank to learn more about exactly how it works.
- You have at least 7,50 euros in your bank account if you are using a contactless debit card.
