Does it mean can use iPhone too? hmm.gif

Rapid KL is quietly testing a new payment option for MRT in the form of bank, credit, and debit cards. However, this particular payment option which is called “Bank Card” is only available for token purchase and seems that it is being activated only on one specific model of Token Vending Machine (TVM) at random stations within the MRT Putrajaya line.

The activation of the payment option was first highlighted by Amir Azmi who shared his experience with it on the Malaysian Land Public Transport Fans (MLPTF) Facebook group. The post was then highlighted by Lowyat.NET Forumers liberty0480 and PoisonSoul in the shoppingmode Apple Pay thread.

Based on Amir’s screenshot, I believe his experience took place on 26 January at a TVM in the Sri Damansara Timur station. However, when I visited the station earlier today and try to utilise the same ticket machine myself, the Bank Card payment option was greyed out:

Not much point though. Most people use TnG anyway. Probably only useful for tourists.

Why RapidKL no make the QR code available on the entry/exit point, then we can use phone to scan QR Code and use TnG e-wallet instead of the TnG physical card?
