About OVpay
OVpay is a collaboration between Translink, all major Dutch banks, and Dutch public transport operators: Arriva, EBS, GVB, HTM, Keolis, NS, Qbuzz, RET, and Transdev.
This is the accompanying app for OVpay. With OVpay, you can check in and out with your contactless card or phone instead of an OV-chipkaart.
Privacy
With OVpay, you choose how you want to check in and out. We need some of your personal details to make it work, but we believe you should be the one who decides how your details are used, and who uses them. Learn how we process and protect your personal details in your privacy statement (www.ovpay.nl/privacy).
