Pay your trip easily with contactless payment. You can pay your fare on all LSL buses with your bank or credit card’s or mobile device’s contactless payment feature. With contactless payment, the price of the trip is cheaper than a single ticket paid in cash.
How it works
- Choose the contactless payment button on the Travel Card reader.
- Choose the zones. Minimum two zones.
- Place your payment card on the left-hand side of the card reader.
- When payment has been accepted, the reader shows a green light.
You can check your payments, trips and print receipts in the customer portal. Remember to always select the zones also when you transfer from one bus to another.

Ticket validity and transfer time
The ticket has a transfer time of 90 minutes, within you can change from one bus to another in the zones you have purchased.
Always select the zones also when you transfer from one bus to another. Within the transfer time, the payment is charged only once. In order to take advantage of the transfer time, you must use the same contactless payment method for all trips.
Payment methods
The following cards with the contactless payment feature are accepted for payment: Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard and Eurocard. Payment cards connected to mobile devices (mobile wallets) ApplePay and Google Wallet are also valid.
Make sure your payment card has a proximity feature or the payment application on your mobile device is connected to the payment card.
Receipts
You can check your payments, trips and print receipts in the customer portal. Enter your payment card information on the login page. Get receipts of mobile wallets (e.g. Google Wallet) by asking at lsl@lahti.fi.
PIN code and contactless payment
PIN code is not needed when paying with proximity payment on the bus and it cannot be entered into the card reader. If a card asks for a PIN code on the bus, contact your bank. Invalid card doesn’t entitle to free travel.
