The National Transport Authority (NTA) has announced an introductory offer of €10 for 10 journeys for customers using the new TFI Go mobile ticketing app. The offer is available on Navan town bus services.
The TFI Go App provides users in Navan with another way to reduce the need for cash on public transport. The App is an alternative option to the current Leap card, providing customers with the facility to load a number of prepaid journeys on their phone. Once downloaded users simply enter the origin and destination of their journey and can then purchase 10 single journey tickets.
Once you have bought your ticket, just tap the activate button before each journey and show the driver your ticket while boarding. This is not only be beneficial for customers eager to reduce the amount of cash they carry, but will also be easier and more convenient for everyone.
The app can currently be used on selected services operated by Bus Éireann and will be rolled out on some TFI Local Link and other bus services across the TFI network in 2022.
CEO of the NTA Anne Graham said: “The discounted fares we are announcing today for users of the TFI-Go App represents the best ever value we have offered our customers.
This app provides an alternative for customers who don’t want to carry a TFI Leap card with fares that are cheaper than cash.
The promotional fare announced today is a real incentive to use the new TFI Go App at just one euro per trip. Even the normal TFI GO single fare will be up to 30% cheaper than the current cash fare and represents great value. We encourage our customers to download the TFI Go App and avail of this fantastic offer.”
Bus Eireann CEO Stephen Kent said: “The offer of 10 single trips for just €10 on Bus Éireann Cork and Limerick city red zones and Athlone and Navan town services in October and November is a fantastic promotion and one more reason to try out the TfI Go app.
TfI Go is very welcome for Bus Eireann PSO customers and also for our drivers. We were delighted to pilot the technology successfully with the NTA last year. The convenience of paying from your mobile phone reduces the need to carry cash. It can also speed up boarding times, helping us to keep our passengers on the move and on time,"
Stephen Kent continued; "And now with a one euro fare promotion, there is every reason to give it a go.”
The TFI Go App will operate on the following routes in Navan: 110A, 110B, 110C (Navan Town Service).
